The generalized other is a concept introduced by George Herbert Mead into the social sciences, and used especially in the field of symbolic interactionism.It is the general notion that a person has of the common expectations that others may have about actions and thoughts within a particular society, and thus serves to clarify their relation to the other as a representative member of a shared ...
Sertraline, sold under the brand name Zoloft among others, is an antidepressant of the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) class. [ 10 ] The effectiveness of sertraline for depression is similar to that of other antidepressants, and the differences are mostly confined to side effects. Sertraline is better tolerated than the older ...
Cartographic generalization is the process of selecting and representing information of a map in a way that adapts to the scale of the display medium of the map. In this way, every map has, to some extent, been generalized to match the criteria of display. This includes small cartographic scale maps, which cannot convey every detail of the real ...
In mathematics, and in particular, algebra, a generalized inverse (or, g-inverse) of an element x is an element y that has some properties of an inverse element but not necessarily all of them. The purpose of constructing a generalized inverse of a matrix is to obtain a matrix that can serve as an inverse in some sense for a wider class of ...
Barycentric coordinates are strongly related to Cartesian coordinates and, more generally, affine coordinates.For a space of dimension n, these coordinate systems are defined relative to a point O, the origin, whose coordinates are zero, and n points , …,, whose coordinates are zero except that of index i that equals one.
The Precision Time Protocol (PTP) is a protocol for clock synchronization throughout a computer network with relatively high precision and therefore potentially high accuracy. . In a local area network (LAN), accuracy can be sub-microsecond – making it suitable for measurement and control systems.
Transduction is the process by which foreign DNA is introduced into a cell by a virus or viral vector. [1] An example is the viral transfer of DNA from one bacterium to another and hence an example of horizontal gene transfer. [2] Transduction does not require physical contact between the cell donating the DNA and the cell receiving the DNA ...
Other (philosophy) The founder of phenomenology, Edmund Husserl, identified the Other as one of the conceptual bases of intersubjectivity, of the relations among people. Other is a term used to define another person or people as separate from oneself. In phenomenology, the terms the Other and the Constitutive Other distinguish other people from ...
