This paper compares the roles classical and intuitionistic logic play in restricting the free use of truth principles in arithmetic. We consider fifteen of the most commonly used axiomatic principles of truth and classify every subset of them as either consistent or inconsistent over a weak purely intuitionistic theory of truth.

Everyone needed heroes, and Gary had only Milton. Milton had no one, except Ronald Reagan in the 1980s, but Reagan did not really qualify as an economist. Arthur Burns may...

Parametric methods are commonly used despite evidence that model assumptions are often violated. Various statistical procedures have been suggested for analyzing data from multiple-group repeated measures (i.e., split-plot) designs when parametric model assumptions are violated (e.g., Akritas and Arnold (J. Amer. Statist. Assoc. 89 (1994) 336); Brunner and Langer (Biometrical J. 42 (2000) 663))...
