Sentence examples for analogous explanation from inspiring English sources

Stalnaker suggests an analogous explanation of Kripke's proposed cases of contingent a priori truth (1978, 83f).. Stalnaker's account of the necessary a posteriori requires that the proposition semantically expressed by the sentence and the proposition that the sentence semantically expresses a truth hold in different worlds in the context set.

The situation is similar to the case of GaN, and analogous explanations have been tentatively given to account for the background carrier concentration [1 10].

If this were the sole explanation, some analogous rise in the rate of ear melanomas in men might have been expected as an aftermath as well, but has been observed neither in Australia nor the US.

Another explanation is analogous to the effects of founder events in classical population genetics: if new rDNA loci are established by the movement or copying of a small number of units to a new location followed by an expansion in the number of these units, then that too would result in higher inter-chromosomal variation.

Some mechanists argue that the covering law model of constitutive explanation has problems analogous to those that beset the covering-law model of etiological explanations.

The group were thanked for their approach to the situation; however this revelation provided a potential explanation for some analogous submissions for previous subjects.

Functionally, an "explanation" is roughly analogous to an argument, or, more precisely, to the premises of an argument, in that it serves to support an assertion by giving reasons.
