But in fact there is just enough evidence from the 5th century to make the assumption of continuity plausible).
Second, we obtained additional data (on TPG and date of death) in order to make the assumption of MAR more plausible.
If there is an element of MNAR present in the data, the inclusion of these variables in the imputation model should lessen the bias and make the assumption of MAR more plausible.
The rich data at hand allows us to control for a wide variety of potentially confounding variables in order to make the CIA assumption plausible.
Using all these data in the imputation model makes the MAR assumption plausible, even if the data are not missing at random [ 6].
However, the fact that lower rates of ABI and PI were found in the treated leg in almost all patients and that no marked difference was found between younger and older patients makes the assumption of treatment-induced differences plausible.
We thus follow Andersson et al. ([2009]) and use small homogenous areas in terms of population characteristics, economic status and living conditions, for making the assumption of conditional independence of contacts more plausible.
(Here, as in their reply to the first objection, the Mohists make the plausible assumption that humans have a natural tendency toward reciprocity).
Since we assume, however, that it is not only a cognitive subject but also intrinsically a cognitive subject it cannot ever occupy this role — at least if we make the plausible assumption that being an object and being a subject are mutually incompatible properties.
For instance, if we focus on model D in Table 1 and make the plausible assumption that antiviral efficacy for susceptibility is 0.50 [9], the transmission rates would increase from an estimated 0.097 (y→y), 0.011 (y→o), 0.43 (o→y), and 0.049 (o→o) per infectious period (Table 1) to 0.19 (y→y), 0.022 (y→o), 0.86 (o→y), and 0.098 (o→o) per infectious period.
But that is to make the (plausible) assumption that some non-human animals can be conscious, not to test it.
