Sentence examples for a negative location from inspiring English sources

Then if the definite description occurs in a positive location we have a positive occurrence of a universal quantifier, and if it occurs in a negative location we have a negative occurrence of an existential quantifier.

A high positive logit location (e.g. standing on toes) indicates harder item difficulty compared to a negative logit location (e.g. bridging).

Chicks (n = 22) discriminated between the positive and negative location as evidenced by a significant difference in times to reach these locations (mean difference variable-feed treatment 22.1 ± 8.8 s; closed-litter treatment 23.3 ± 6.5 s; closed-dark treatment 24.4 ± 4.9 s and baseline mean difference 22.3 ± 6.4 s).
