  NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Logical system
The ambiguity is that "formal logic" is very often used with the alternate meaning of symbolic logic as we have defined it, with informal logic meaning any logical investigation that does not involve symbolic abstraction; it is this sense of 'formal' that is parallel to the received usages coming from "formal languages" or "formal theory".
Logicism is one of the schools of thought in the philosophy of mathematics, putting forth the theory that mathematics is an extension of logic and therefore some or all mathematics is reducible to logic.
Logic cut to the heart of computer science as it emerged as a discipline: Alan Turing's work on the Entscheidungsproblem followed from Kurt Gödel's work on the incompleteness theorems, and the notion of general purpose computer that came from this work was of fundamental importance to the designers of the computer machinery in the 1940s.

While the logics of the mind are not known, it appears to be operating in hierarchies of "packets" which interact cooperatively".
Milic Capek has a similar analysis of hearing in The Philosophical Impact of Contemporary Physics in which he shows that vision is connected to levels of the mind which are unable to comprehend the complexities of contemporary physics as represented in mathematics.
Work in measuring brain waves, the practice of meditation, dream analysis, and the analysis of right brain-left brain phenomena indicate that more may soon be known about he measurement and perhaps some day about the learning of the creative act.

  Psychoanalysis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In classical psychoanalysis, the fundamental subject matter of psychoanalysis is the unconscious patterns of life as they become revealed through the analysand's (the patient's) free associations.
In most forms of group-based analysis, the group is initially an artefact created by the analyst selecting the various members; the assumption is that the common relationship to the analyst will lead to the formation of a genuine group situation.
Some defenders of psychoanalysis suggest that its logics and formulations are more akin to those found in the humanities than those proper to the physical and biological sciences, though Freud himself tried to base his clinical formulations on a hypothetical neurophysiology of energy transformations.

 Table of Contents and Excerpt, Fischer, Cultural Logics and Global Economies
As the former subjects of colonial and neocolonial governments seek to recover and assert their ethnic distinctiveness, they quite naturally turn to those elements that are perceived as being most authentic, the apparent essences of their culture.
Maya cultural logics provide only a broad underlying foundation for comprehending and producing thought and behavior; they are productive and generative while ensuring continuity; and though by nature idiosyncratically internalized, their specific social instantiations may be deemed rational or irrational by others based on consensual norms, indicating their shared, normative quality.
Through such practical activity, derivative cognitive schemas and their underlying cultural logics are reinforced (when the social and material world conform to the expectations of an internalized cognitive model) and are changed (when expectations are not fulfilled and a working hypothesis of a cultural logic must be modified; see Sahlins 1985).

Subjectivity is one of the elements distinguishing the biological sciences from the natural sciences.
In their opinion, multivariate methods such as factor analysis and cluster analysis, which can objectively determine the presence or absence of patterns in the data, may be more scientifically sound than the kind of clinical observation used in the medical model.

Several new logics for belief and knowledge are introduced and studied, all of which have the property that agents are not logically omniscient.
Thus, these logics are more suitable than traditional logics for modeling beliefs of humans (or machines) with limited reasoning capabilities.

 Ventral/dorsal, predicate/argument: the transformation from perception to meaning.
In basic logic, arguments denote individual entities, whereas (1-place) predicates denote classes or properties; and the syntax of logic puts predicates outside of (but tied to) the brackets which enclose arguments (though of course other, similarly asymmetric, notations are conceivable).
Note first that `subject and predicate' immediately suggests specifically linguistic structure; the target article acknowledged the differences between perceptual processes and linguistic structure, but claimed that a similar skeletal shape, the asymmetric interaction of elements (processes or terms) of different types, is evident in both.
Nowadays the logical notations that semanticists use are theoretical constructs designed with the goal of relating sentences to the world they describe (and in some cases to further functions of sentences as well).

We appear in the closed circle: we are going to undertake logic research of time, and inevitably we begin to base on "empirical consciousness data", and as a result it turns out science-like translation of our subjective notions of the language of the logic terms.
If we abstract from subjectivity, TIME will be presented to you as quite a suitable subject for the analysis, and we shall notice one of its fundamental features.

Accordingly, the logic of the marketplace emphasizes utilitarian reasoning, efficiency and means-end calculations from the standpoint of the individual while the logic of the family emphasizes mutual support and a collective orientation.
Social relations, such as nepotism and insider trading, are against the logic of impersonality fundamental to this market type, and threaten the efficient movement of goods and people according to principles of supply and demand.

 INFLUENCE OF GENDER ON SUBJECTIVE AND ESTIMATION PERCEPTION OF REALITY AND IDENTITY FORMATION
The main problems here are the problem of identification of action and behavior subjects and their aspirations and orientations, the problem of forecasting their attitudes towards other social groups and social institutions, and the problem of their self-identification.
If the subject for whatever reason hardly can be identified, if they have problems with self-identification and other individuals cannot refer them to a certain social group, the society is in danger of chaos and disorganization and the possibilities to influence economic, political, and social processes are low.

Her analysis of the gendered dynamics of medical care delivery leads her to the conclusion that "we should be reluctant to endorse these practices" (1996, 286) as a matter of social policy, despite her corresponding insistence on respecting women's refusals of life-sustaining treatment.
Further, in the course of that extended analysis we should not be surprised by gaps and inconsistencies, for culture is never monolithic or fixed, and cultural practices do not follow consistently or irresistibly even the most hegemonic ideology.
Wolf notes in her essay's introduction that the most important aspect of her overall project is "to urge the necessity of feminist analysis" (1996, 286) of PAS and euthanasia, and that reasonable people may disagree on the moral rightness or wrongness of these practices.

 A Deleuzian Analysis of Tarkovsky’s Theory of “Time-Pressure”
As the analysis will demonstrate, Tarkovsky does so in basically two ways, one by the continuous movement of the camera through space and the other by not controlling the viewer’s attention by cutting from one image to the next; all of which emphasizes the temporal nature of reality.
The stuttering of the teenager hints at the fragmentation of the spoken language and to the fractured representation of the self as written subject.
The camera arrives at the entrance of a lit doorway, where, against the logics of time and space, the same woman, Maria, is seen; behind her and on the other side of the door we see a bricked surface background.

 Natural semantics as a static program analysis framework
In this article, we set up sorted natural semantics as a specification framework which is able to express static semantic information of programming languages declaratively in a uniform way and allows one at the same time to generate corresponding analyses.
Such static semantic information comprises context-sensitive properties which are checked in the semantic analysis phase of compilers as well as further static program analyses such as, for example, classical data and control flow analyses or type and effect systems.
In case of the semantic analysis, this solution can be found by a basic algorithm.

Remarking that the proposition's truth is its corresponding to the fact that snow is white leads critics to request an acceptable analysis of this notion of correspondence.
In presenting his theory of logical atomism early in the twentieth century, Russell tried to show how a true proposition and its corresponding fact share the same structure.
This latter claim is certainly true (it is a tautology), but it is no significant part of the analysis of the concept of truth — indeed it does not even use the words "true" or "truth", nor does it involve an object language and a metalanguage.

Likewise, textual analysis of the prodigious output of community media organizations provides alternative avenues to explore the relationship between media texts and broader socio-historical conditions.
Moreover, textual analysis of community media form and content illuminate the range of possible meanings embedded in "cultural artifacts" produced by "non-professionals" and for purposes other than capital accumulation.
Moreover, this analysis finds that audience pleasures and freedoms are empowering in that they enable people to create their own meanings and ultimately, their own culture, through their interactions with media texts and technologies.

 P2P and Human Evolution: Placing Peer to Peer Theory in an Integral Framework, Michel Bauwens
The 'self' or subject of economic action is the company, led by entrepreneurs, who are the locus of innovation.
The predominance of financial capital is explained by the ownership of stocks, which replaces ownership of capital, a less abstract form, and unlike industrial capitalists, who were happy to leave a common and socialized culture, education, and science to the state, vectoral capitalists differ in that they want to turn everything into a commodity.
P2P, interpreted here as a positive and normative ethos that is implicit in the logic of its practice, though it rejects the ideology of individualism, does not in any way endanger the achievements of the modern individual, in terms of the desire and achievement of personal autonomy, authenticity, etc….

 Entrepreneurial Activism in Postmodern World:   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-27)
Activist and Nike storytelling is possessed by a "double logic," presenting its plot as a linear sequence of events which is prior to and independent of the other non-linear perspective on the events, and, at the same time, asserting they have captured the other in a devious plot structure.
In "double logic," for every report of Nike exploitation, there is the distinct possibility that the story of the event is an exaggeration or even a fictitious tale by an activist.
The undecidabilities allow for the double interpretation of linearity and non-linearity logics in a system that has both deviation-amplifying and deviation-counteracting loops, to either forestall or accelerate chaos effects.

 Data-Flow Analysis for Constraint Logic-Based Languages
In the literature on data-flow analysis this problem is systematically swept under the carpet, even in papers dealing with the analysis of Prolog (which, proverbially, omits the occur-check).
Top-down analysis methods are usually advocated for this purpose, since the standard execution strategy of (constraint) logic programs is top-down.
They showed, among other things, that their bottom-up analysis is at least as precise (on both call and success-patterns) as any top-down abstract interpretation using the same abstract domain and abstract operators.
