Top-down causation without top-down causes
We argue that intelligible appeals to interlevel causes (top-down and bottom-up) can be understood, without remainder, as appeals to mechanistically mediated effects. Mechanistically mediated effects are hybrids of causal and constitutive relations, where the causal relations are exclusively intralevel. The idea of causation would have to stretch to the breaking point to accommodate interlevel ...
متن کاملTop-down, Middle-out, and Bottom-up Processes: A Cognitive Perspective of Teaching and Learning Economics
The pedagogical value of graphical representations and analyses (GR and GA) in economics education is examined in a framework of top-down and bottom-up processes of thinking.We argue, with the support of two illustrative examples, that they are useful to the extent that they provide bridges between economic theories and facts.We also note that over-reliance on GR and GA may lead to misconceptio...
متن کاملMountains: top down.
Mountainous regions offer not only essential habitat and resources, including water, to the earth's more than 6 billion inhabitants, but also insights into how the global human habitat works, how it is being changed at the moment as global climates are disrupted, and how the disruption may lead to global biotic and economic impoverishment. At least 600 million of the earth's more than 6 billion...
متن کاملTop-Down Skiplists
We describe todolists (top-down skiplists), a variant of skiplists (Pugh 1990) that can execute searches using at most log2−εn +O(1) binary comparisons per search and that have amortized update timeO(ε−1 logn). A variant of todolists, called working-todolists, can execute a search for any element x using log2−εw(x)+ o(logw(x)) binary comparisons and have amortized search time O(ε−1 logw(w)). He...
متن کاملTop-down Deterministic Languages
Two new families of languages, the F(k) and U(k) languages, are Introduced each of which is, in some sense, a generalization of top-down deterministic languages. This leads us to new characterizations of s-grammars and LL(1) languages. We include a characterization of the unambiguous context-free languages, generalizations of the equivalence relation on s-grammars to LL(k) grammars, and a summa...
