This would not have happened unless the scientific community had accepted Galileo's description of the ideal behaviour and did not expect to be shaken in its belief by small deviations, so long as they could be understood as reflecting inevitable random discrepancies between the ideal and its experimental realization.
The secondary effect could be understood as reflecting the perceived "natural" choice given a student's starting situation and her social, and institutional surroundings.
Such a requirement can in turn be understood as reflecting the fact that classical physics does not allow for the possibility of action at a distance.
Trace-fossil distribution can be understood as reflecting the partitioning of desert settings in a mosaic of landscape units, characterized by water content and its temporal fluctuations, nutrient availability, nature of the substrate, and the dominant organisms present.
However, the levels of comorbidity/anxiety can be understood as reflecting the most pertinent comorbidity problems associated with each group.
Therefore, contestation during policy-making should rather be understood as reflecting the reality that the nursing profession is not uniform and that policy-making is a struggle between groups with competing interests.
Aging-related mortality should thus be understood as reflecting the simultaneous senescence of multiple biological systems, a process that increases risk of death from many varied degenerative conditions (Bains 2000; Gavrilov and Gavrilova 2001; Laird and Sherratt 2009).
Increased posterior cingulate activation in MDD patients while acutely depressed may be understood as reflecting a failure to attenuate self-referential activity, perhaps leading to interference in task performance.
The preferential reactivity of the catalyst particle toward CO and not toward C2H2 is understood as reflecting nanoparticle restructuring, interactions between co-adsorbates and reactant pyrolysis products.
The bearing ratio may be understood as immediately reflecting the position of the attrition abrasion equilibrium, and thus bridging the two major methods of tooth based dietary evaluation, the microwear- and the mesowear method.
