  • Using Propensity Scores Subclassification to Estimate Effects of Longitudinal Treatments

    Jodi B Segal, Michael Griswold et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2007Referências: 18

    BACKGROUND: When using observational data to compare the effectiveness of medications, it is essential to account parsimoniously for patients' longitudinal characteristics that lead to changes in treatments over time. OBJECTIVES: We developed a method of estimating effects of longitudinal treatments that uses subclassification on a longitudinal propensity score to compare outcomes between a new drug (exenatide) and established drugs (insulin and …

  • Dualism-Materialism

    Robert Herbert, R T HerbertARTICLEThe Philosophical Quarterly1998Referências: 3

    I argue that in rejecting Cartesian ‘mind’ and retaining Cartesian ‘body’, materialism/physicalism falls to the allure of three charming but deadly ‘eliminative’ identities: perceivable properties become particles in motion; perception, by being ‘sensationized’, turns into neuronal activity; and a perceiver becomes a brain in a body. In rebuttal I argue that ‘particles in motion’ does not nullify but instead preserves the perceivable properties i…

    In a recent issue of Religious Studies , G. G. O'Collins concludes his essay with a question which in his view states ‘the classic problem of Christology’: ‘What is the ontological connection between the Logos and the human existence of Jesus of Nazareth?’ In another recent issue C. J. F. Williams poses the question, ‘What sort of union is a hypostatic union?’ In the literature grown up around Kierkegaard's pronouncements on the notion of the God…

  • "Two of Kierkegaard's Uses of "Paradox

    Robert HerbertARTICLEThe Philosophical Review1961

    IN THE span of a few pages of Concluding Unscientific Postscript' Soren Kierkegaard employs in an important way notion of paradox. By means of this notion he distinguishes two sorts of religiousness. I propose to study this notion as he employs it in characterizing these two sorts of religiousness. The first sort of religiousness discussed by Kierkegaard is exemplified by religiousness of Socrates and is what in other places he calls religiousnes…
