Although self-controls are a weak design in therapeutic research, when used with caution, they can present compelling inferences in epidemiological surveys.
Clinicians then make a compelling pathophysiological inference and reason that there must be inadequate vital organ blood flow (typically described by the loose term perfusion) to explain this clinical picture.
The gold standard of making compelling causal inferences depends on experimental designs in which the assignment of participants to treatments is "exogenous" rather than "endogenous".
This argument invokes a compelling pattern of inference regarding claims about what is power necessary for a person.
I discuss four "markers" of causality theoretical coherence, empirical covariation, temporal/physical separation, and internal validity and how the researcher can lever these to suggest compelling survey-based inferences.
Somewhat more modestly, Peacocke (1992, 2005) claims that possession of certain logical concepts requires that a person find certain inferences "primitively compelling," or compelling not by reason of some inference or in any way that takes "their correctness…as answerable to anything else" (p. 6).
In addition to showing that the executive's statements were misleading, the court wrote in the case, Tellabs v. Makor Issues & Rights, a shareholder's claim that the executive had wrongful intent had to be "more than merely plausible or reasonable – it must be cogent and at least as compelling as any opposing inference of nonfraudulent intent".
(A speaker finds an inference form primitively compelling just in case she finds it compelling and does not take its correctness to require external ratification, e.g. by inference).
Hampf et al. investigated a number of different approaches to establishing the causal linkage between skills and wages, concluding there was compelling evidence for such an inference.
This bounding technique is the most compelling of the above mixture fraction inference approaches, as prior methods cannot perform such inference with only one reference population.
