Underage drivers are separating drinking from driving
OBJECTIVES: From 1985 to 1995, drivers younger than 21 years experienced a 50% drop in fatal crashes involving alcohol. This study addresses whether the decrease is explained by young drivers' drinking less or by their separating drinking from driving. METHODS: Nighttime roadside surveys were conducted in 3 communities to test drivers' breath and administer questionnaires on drinking practices. From 1992 to 1996, 34,898 drivers (21% of whom were …
De A et B , de leur indépendance logique, et de ce qu'ils n'ont aucun contenu factuel commun
The logical independence of two statements is tantamount to their probabilistic independence, the latter understood in a sense that derives from stochastic independence. And analogous logical and probabilistic senses of having the same factual content similarly coincide. These results are extended to notions of non-symmetrical independence and independence among more than two statements
The Link Between Probability Functions and Logical Consequence
On défend ici l'idée que la définition des notions sémantiques à l'aide des fonctions de probabilité devrait être vue non pas comme une généralisation (sous le nom de «sémantique probabiliste») de la sémantique standard en termes d'assignations de valeurs de vérité, mais plutôt comme une généralisation aux degrés de conséquence logique, de la caractérisation de la relation de conséquence que l'on retrouve dans le calcul des séquents de Gentzen
Of A and B being logically independent of each other and of their having no common factual content
Probability Functions
This paper studies the extent to which probability functions are recursively definable. It proves, in particular, that the ( absolute ) probability of a statement A is recursively definable from a certain point on, to wit: from the ( absolute ) probabilities of certain atomic components and conjunctions of atomic components of A on, but to no further extent. And it proves that, generally, the probability of a statement A relative to a statement B…
Les fonctions de probabilité
Pensons aux divers énoncés qui peuvent être composés à partir d'un ensemble fini ou dénombrable d'énoncés atomiques à l'aide de, disons, ‘ ̃’ et ‘&’; soit A n'importe lequel de ces énoncés; et soit l'ensemble S A des composantes atomiques de A . La valeur de vérité de A dépend évidemment des valeurs de vérité de certains membres de S A (tous les membres de S A dans plusieurs cas, mais seulemént certains d'entre eux dans d'autres cas). En effet, s…
Resentful and Reflective Coping with Arbitrary Authority and Blood Pressure
Two hypotheses about coping with an arbitrary authority, an angry boss, were tested: (1) styles of handling anger vary with social status, and (2) these styles are in turn related to blood pressure levels. Two styles of coping were tested: model R-R, Resentful vs. Reflective, and model I/O/R, Anger-In, Anger-Out, and Reflective. Handling an angry boss by Reflection is reported by more women than men, by those in middle-class areas rather than low…
Skin color, ethnicity, and blood pressure I
Census areas in Detroit were ranked for their stress scores based on instability (e.g., crime, marital break up) and socioeconomic status. Four areas were selected for detailed study: 1) high stress, population predominantly black, 2) white, 3) low stress, population predominantly black, 4) white. A sample was drawn from each area of persons of the predominant race, 25-60 years old, married and living with spouse, and having relatives in the Detr…
