Meyers proposes that self-respect is necessary to achieve the self-realization required for autonomy competency, although it "cannot be construed as a masculine or perfectionist value" (Meyers 1989, 208; compare Dillon's feminist conception of self-respect in Dillon 1992).
Although the silicate concentrations at SW75 and SW200 (Fig. 10) appeared to be several times higher than the background, it cannot be construed that produced water is present, as there is no elevation in concentration of other chemicals, especially ammonia and iron, which are good tracers due to their abundance in raw produced water.

Mr. Tribe contends that imposing a fee or requirement to return a sum of money cannot be construed as a punishment.
While the decision cannot be construed as legally conservative, in that the case made law in an area (abortion rights) in which the Supreme Court had rarely before issued an opinion, it can be seen as politically conservative, in that it followed from Blackmun's deeply held belief in a citizen's right to privacy without governmental interference.
