Sentence examples for competing abilities from inspiring English sources

The results supported investment theories, which predict that investment in a specific ability (math) boosts similar abilities but retards competing abilities (verbal).

So that the mean of the redefined "competing abilities" is: with q r the proportion of each n g groups in population.

This is because the assumption of normality of competing abilities tends to shrink these differences towards 0. This bias decreases with more information, but even with a very large number of events (50) per horse, the estimates of repeatability are still biased (0.215).

The model, written in terms of competing abilities, now becomes: with κ the new vector of "competing ability" of the horse, a normal distribution defined as the following: where g the vector of mean values of the 3 groups of horses, w i a design vector which allocated the group to the horse.
