But if these are the units targeted by ethics, how do we mark their boundaries such that the moral concepts and principles coherently apply (McMahan 2002, 62)?
It is only with regards to patients who do not even possess the starting points of decisions — for example, infants or more severely brain damaged individuals — that the idea of reconstructing the individual's own point of view as a basis for a decision does not even coherently apply, and the more generic application of the Best Interests standard is called for.
Andrea diSessa and colleagues (diSessa, 1988, 1993; Smith et al., 1993/1994) challenged the conceptual framework view of student ideas by advancing a new hypothesis (knowledge in pieces ) that could account for other researchers' observations that students' scientifically incorrect ideas were NOT coherently or consistently applied across contexts (Taber, 2008).
After motion compensation by the proposed autofocus approach, an SA-ISAR imaging method is applied to coherently focus SA-ISAR data for full-aperture-resolution image [3].
But cost-benefit requirements are hard to apply coherently to financial regulation, as the Harvard law professor John Coates IV has argued — because it's rarely possible to get "precise, reliable, quantified" measures there.
In any case the air of paradox disappears if we apply coherently the principle of continuity seen in section 3.2.
It was also shown that when the MLC approach is compared to a single label classification, it coherently reflects the actual metabolism information when applied over a collection of CYP450 substrates [30].
Searching for a unified explanation is seen as the essence of good scientific practice, since in that context hypotheses are rigorously applied, evidence interpreted consistently, and all findings coherently unified by fundamental principles into one overarching theoretical framework.
Because CloudSat/CALIPSO observes the Earth in a nadir view, a parallax correction is applied to the ICAS retrieval to compare the datasets coherently.
Heuristic techniques need to be applied to identify and excise the extra material, and extracted clauses need to be fluently and coherently combined.
