Like the existence of things, the possession of properties by things is subject to modal qualification.
We give formal results which characterize ME's high degree of modularity and elaboration tolerance, and show how these properties help to separate out, and provide principled solutions to, different aspects of the qualification problem.
In the first panel, we define individuals as being underqualified, perfectly qualified and overqualified by comparing their qualification level to the modal qualification held by a NZ-born individual of the same gender employed in the same occupation in the year of observation.
(Necessity is stronger than possibility, and an assertoric claim without any modal qualification is intermediate between the two).
When calculating the modal qualification in each occupation, we use the following more aggregate classification: (i) no qualification; (ii) school qualification; (iii) post-school certificate; (iv) post-school diploma; (v) bachelor degree; and (vi) higher degree.
Explanatory variables regarded cover sociodemographic characteristics, details of the household composition of the individual, aspects of qualification and experience, a comprehensive labor market history, and regional information.
A corresponding project investigates legal aspects of qualification and training as well as limits to the delegation of physicians' tasks to practice assistants.
Any modal qualifications of this principle would undermine combinatorialism's modal reductionism (cf. Bradley 1989, 35 38).
Functions can be described in a language which is based on verb + object pairs (with further modal qualifications, if needed), is independent on specific technological solutions, is subject to different levels of abstraction and allow decomposition.
And it should not be forgotten that the structuralist aspect of this (modal) nominalist position keeps Benacerraf's identification challenge at bay.
Hypothetically, some variants may be expected to possess differences in various aspects of their poly-modal regulation and exogenous agents, such as zinc ions (Zn2+), may modify their behaviour [ 10], perhaps with relevance to particular physiological circumstances [ 11].
