The paper deals with an attempt to present an “abductive-transcendental” argument in favour of a particular version of structural realism (SR), dubbed Intermediate SR. In the first part of the paper the general structure of transcendental arguments is scrutinized with a close view on Kant’s original version and the prospect of their abductive variation. Then the role of symmetries in modern phy...

according to specificity of practice hypothesis, availability of visual information during practice induces performance decrement in no-vision transfer test. one hypothesis is that full vision as a dominant source of information prevents the processing of other sensory sources, in which case, weakened vision may reduce dominance of vision over other sensory sources. the aim of the current study...

We investigate when differential polynomials in real transcendental meromorphic functions have non-real zeros. For example, we show that if g is a real transcendental meromorphic function, c ∈ R \ {0} and n ≥ 3 is an integer, then g′gn − c has infinitely many non-real zeros. If g has only finitely many poles, then this holds for n ≥ 2. Related results for rational functions g are also considered.
