Charles R. Wright Herbert Hyman

On the occasion of the twentieth-anniversary issue of the Public Opinion Quarterly in 1957, an issue devoted to twenty years of public opinion research, Herbert Hyman reflected on the existing state of theory about public opinion (Hyman, 1957; pp. 54-60).

Recently Lakemeyer and Levesque proposed the logic , which amalgamates both the situation calculus and Levesque’s logic of only knowing. While very expressive the practical relevance of the formalism is unclear because it heavily relies on second-order logic. In this paper we demonstrate that the picture is not as bleak as it may seem. In particular, we show that for large classes of knowledge ...

Five years ago, the World Health Assembly adopted a resolution on universal health coverage, followed a year later by a resolution from the United Nations General Assembly.

fant suffering from general convulsions. I found it to be a case of trismus nascentium, occurring suddenly on the fifth day after birth. The child was of normal size, and apparently well nourished.

This paper discusses the ecological case for epistemic innocence: does biased cognition have evolutionary benefits, and if so, does that exculpate human reasoners from irrationality? Proponents of 'ecological rationality' have challenged the bleak view of human reasoning emerging from research on biases and fallacies. If we approach the human mind as an adaptive toolbox, tailored to the structu...

Sustainable development is conceptualised along three dimensions: environmental-ecologic, social-cultural and economic-financial. In this study sustainability is defined in terms of three specific evaluation criteria: quality, affordability and diversity. Evidence from Budapest suggests that quality varies (new versus old in particular), affordability is low and diversity, while high overall, i...

More than 600,000 prisoners are released from incarceration each year in the United States, and most end up residing in metropolitan areas, clustered within a select few neighborhoods. Likely consequences of this concentration of returning prisoners include higher rates of subsequent crime and recidivism. In fact, one-half of released prisoners return to prison within only 3 y of release. The r...
