Abstract:

Role-playing games are a diverse phenomenon, ranging from digital games to live action role-playing. Finding a definition that suits them all is hard, but attempts have been many. All of the definitions emphasize some aspects of role-playing games like rules, the role of players or the story. Many definitions do not describe role-playing games as such, but the activity that is role-playing. This paper looks at one of the latest attempts to define role-playing games, by Hitchens and Drachen (2009), and shows some potential problems with it. As an answer to these problems another definition is p

The shadow economy is definitely a significant problem throughout the world. Research studies on the shadow economy still lack a single approach to the term shadow economy. Several definitions of the shadow economy are used to assess the role of the shadow economy.The present research aims to examine the theoretical role of the shadow economy and the definitions thereof given in various economic theories.Analysing the definitions of the shadow economy, researchers identify ambiguous interpretations of the term given in various theories.

Abstract:

Much of formal geometry is based on unambiguous definitions that can be used to develop and prove theorems. Is it possible that such clear and precise definitions can hinder conceptual understanding? Just what role should definitions play in the mathematics classroom? Should students be told definitions? Or should they be asked to develop them? In this era of educational reform, we are emphasizing student involvement in discourse.

Abstract:

The role of verbs in definitions is very complex. In general discourse, the function of declarative sentences or propositions is to report events happening to participants, with verbs encoding the events and nouns the participants. In definitions of concepts, verbs and nouns are used to express, in the form of simple (stative) propositions, basic facts concerning processes, states, or actions that relate to the concepts mainly realised in noun form. While the nouns in the definienda can represent any class of concept, in this article it is argued that the verbs occurring in the second part of

Abstract:

Abstract. Dutch anaphoric dat has an important function in definitory exchanges. If dat is used in the recapitulation of a non-nominal definition, it increases the coherence of the defining utterance, by tying the recapitulation to the previous utterances and by permitting the switch of the focus from definiens to defmiendum. However, dat is not really coherence-building when used for left-dislocation in core-definitions. Indeed, a left-dislocated definition cannot be more coherent than a definition without interruptions and 'gaps'. The role of dat in left-dislocation is rather to permit extra

The Craig interpolation property (CIP) states that an interpolant for an implication exists iff it is valid. The projective Beth definability property (PBDP) states that an explicit definition exists iff a formula stating implicit definability is valid. Thus, the CIP and PBDP transform potentially hard existence problems into deduction problems in the underlying logic. Description Logics with nominals and/or role inclusions do not enjoy the CIP nor PBDP, but interpolants and explicit definitions have many potential applications in ontology engineering and ontology-based data management.

In this paper we present a description of the role of definitional verbal patterns for the extraction of semantic relations. Several studies show that semantic relations can be extracted from analytic definitions contained in machine-readable dictionaries (MRDs). In addition, definitions found in specialised texts are a good starting point to search for different types of definitions where other semantic relations occur. The extraction of definitional knowledge from specialised corpora represents another interesting approach for the extraction of semantic relations. Here, we present a descript

Abstract:

Does Aristotle offer a definition of the soul? In fact, he rejects the possibility of defining the soul univocally. Because “life” is a homonymous concept, so too is “soul”. Given the specific causal role that Aristotle envisages for form and essence, the soul requires multiple different definitions to capture how it functions as a cause in each form of life. Aristotle suggests demonstrations can be given which express these causal definitions; I reconstruct these demonstrations.

However, in the following pages I shall not discuss what this role is.

The notion of operational definition comes from Percy Bridgman’s The Logic of Modern Physics (Bridgman 1927) and means that the definiendum is defined by a set of operations that results in determining the meaning of the term in question. In the case of Confucian argumentation, operational definitions are mostly nominal and, in contrast to unambiguous methods of measur

Abstract:

The scientific article examines issues related to the determination of the essence, role and meaning of definitions in the regulatory and legal regulation of economic security. The uniqueness of the phenomenon of economic security is emphasized, which is the guarantor of ensuring the national interests of the state, society, and the individual in the economic sphere and the basis for the unhindered implementation of the state’s strategic national priorities. Ensuring these interests and implementing strategic priorities is possible through the creation of effective legal regulation, which incl

Abstract:

The observations in the article mainly concern the role of the concept of the so-called right answer in question logic. The purpose of these remarks is to justify the postulate that any logic of questions should be based on a conception of the structure of questions and answers, in which the notion of a proper answer is strictly defined. This postulate is addressed to any question logic, although it is mainly supported and illustrated by analyses and comparative remarks referring to concepts based on Ajdukiewicz’s question theory and to recent approaches of inferential erotetic logic (IEL).

Abstract:

The acceleration of technology in business since the 1980s suggests that traditional management techniques, systems, and strategies employed in a business environment should be challenged. As a consequence of this acceleration, end-user computing (EUC) and end-user development (EUD) have also grown. Definitions of EUC developed in the 1980s continue to be used by contemporary researchers without regard to the changing technological environment, user experience, and user needs. Therefore, the authors challenge traditional definitions of EUC developed and used by researchers to ascertain whether

Abstract:

Frame Semantic Role Labeling (FSRL) identifies arguments and labels them with frame semantic roles defined in FrameNet. Previous researches tend to divide FSRL into argument identification and role classification. Such methods usually model role classification as naive multi-class classification and treat arguments individually, which neglects label semantics and interactions between arguments and thus hindering performance and generalization of models. In this paper, we propose a query-based framework named ArGument Extractor with Definitions in FrameNet (AGED) to mitigate these problems. Def

ABSTRACTThree studies were carried out in order to account for development of word definitions. Study i was aimed at analysing the role of class inclusion skills and age (5– and 7–year-olds and adults) in production of definitions containing superordinate categorical terms. No differences were found between 7-year-olds who had passed a class inclusion task and those who had not passed it as regards number of definitions containing superordinates, while differences were found between younger and older children and between children and adults.

Abstract:

The definition of Indian is the measure of eligibility for a variety of benefits and programs provided to Indians under federal law. There is confusion, however, at the core of efforts to define "Indian." This confusion raises many concerns about the role that government plays in defining "Indian." This Note surveys the most common definitions of "Indian" found in federal statutes, BIA regulations, and state laws. The author argues that the racial basis of many of these laws and regulations are unconstitutional and tread on the sovereignty of Indian tribes. She evaluates efforts of the federal

Abstract:

Some definitions and adoptions of the word “transgender” may be rooted in transgender prejudice and result in different conclusions about who is considered transgender. Transnormative definitions, fixed to the gender binary and medical transitions, could lead to categorical exclusions, whereas umbrella definitions, centered on people’s self-identification and often featuring a greater range of gender identities, could lead to broader inclusion. The present work explored whether the relationship between attitudes toward transgender people and transgender target categorization is associated with

In recent years, innovative management has been particularly prominent in this field, which is given the role of a basic economic and social factor. In this paper, we want to analytically and objectively present the innovative management. Based on that, we came to the conclusion that innovation is the key to the development of any business, but that it differs significantly based on the type of business. For the effective and effi

The current study examined the antecedents of OCB role definitions in a military work context. Integrating social exchange and role theories, we found that job satisfaction and transformational leadership are related to how broadly subordinates define their jobs and that procedural justice has a moderator role in the relationship
