On Theoretical Incomprehensibility

'Theory of incomprehensibility'--the social and biological determinants of mental disorders.

Karl Jaspers' theory on the incomprehensibility of psychotic disorders has become the reference point for many critical studies in the field of contemporary psychopathology. According to Jaspers, it is impossible to understand any of the serious mental disorders often referred to as 'psychosis' because of their unreasonableness, a truth that is revealed when one attempts to empathize with the m...

Translation Errors and Incomprehensibility: a Case Study using Machine-Translated Second Language Proficiency Tests

This paper reports on an experiment where 795 human participants answered to the questions taken from second language proficiency tests that were translated to their native language. The output of three machine translation systems and two different human translations were used as the test material. We classified the translation errors in the questions according to an error taxonomy and analyzed...

Theoretical Development on Pentaquarks

Quark model is very successful in the classification of hadron states. Any state with quark content other than qq̄, qqq is beyond quark model. But quark model can’t be the whole story. Quantum chromodynamics as the underlying theory of strong interaction allows much richer hadron spectrum such as: glueball, hybrid meson/baryon, multiquark states, hadron molecules etc. In the meson sector, there ...
