British natural philosopher Richard Laming first hypothesized the concept of an indivisible quantity of electric charge to explain the chemical properties of atoms in 1838; Irish physicist George Johnstone Stoney named this charge 'electron' in 1891, and J. J. Thomson and his team of British physicists identified it as a particle in 1897.
Although it would be decades before Darwin's evolutionary theories clarified the actual ties that earlier scientists hypothesized, their concepts of biological interconnectedness (a linchpin of twentieth-century ecology) were easily assimilated into Froebel's personal cosmology.
We hypothesize that concepts of meaning construction, resource activation and the utilization of the clients' expectations help to explain the data.
The goals of Phase II trials are to provide either a proof of mechanism or a proof of the hypothesized therapeutic concept, identify the patient population in which the new drug appears to work, and determine an appropriate dose regimen for subsequent large-scale trials.
Hypothesis 4 Efficiency We hypothesize that the concept of applying attentional modulation early in a processing hierarchy is a consequence of constrained resources.
Together with a number of putative virulence factors of W22703 (Table 2), ysa2 contributes to the pathosphere of yersiniae, a concept hypothesizing that all of the pathogenic genes shared by enteric bacteria form a "pool" [ 35].
Multitrait scaling analysis [ 31] was used to evaluate the structure of the multi-item dimensions (i.e. "sleep disturbance," "adequacy of sleep" and "somnolence" dimensions and sleep problems index) in order to verify that items measured the concept of their hypothesized dimension.
Sedentary phytoparasites (root-knot species of Meloidogyne, the false root-knot genus Nacobbus, and cyst-forming Heterodera and Globodera) and other obligate endoparasites of plants evolved several times from free-living or facultative sedentary forms, as it was previously hypothesized in accordance with the concept of evolutionary trend to endoparasitism in phytonematodes [ 135].
On the basis of such analogies, we may hypothesize that the concepts of tumour homeostasis, tumour dormancy and surgery related enhancement of metastasis growth, convincingly explaining the clinical behaviour of breast cancer [ 8], may be used for uveal melanoma as well.
This hypothesized conceptualization of cough severity as a measurement concept will inform the development of a new PRO measure designed to evaluate cough symptom severity.
