	René Descartes [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
		Recall our discussion of Descartes' views on the representational nature of mental contents, at the end of the section on Meditation 1 above: the idea of God is the only idea the mere inner characterisitics of which allow us to deduce with certainty the origin of the idea.
		He recalls first that he had a naive confidence in his senses (secondary perception) by which he perceived the different parts of his body, different emotional and physiological appetites, and various secondary qualities in objects such as heat and color.
		Recall Descartes' argument that whatever doubt I may be able to maintain, I cannot doubt that I am doubting - that I exist as doubting and, in general, thinking.

	PreventDisease.com - Dream Recall Often Imperfect
		Our ability to recall details of dreams is as rife with errors as are eyewitness reports of actual events, said Dr. William Moorcroft of the Sleep and Dreaming Laboratory at Luther College in Decorah, Iowa.
		Comparison of the components of the four tape-recorded recall sessions revealed that, on average, only half of the dream components were recalled in any one of the four sessions.
		Of the dream elements recalled immediately following REM sleep awakening (thought by most researchers to deliver the most accuracy), people were able to recall fewer than 44% of events in any of the subsequent sessions.

		You also recall that imperfect tense forms differently from future tense.
		Recall that subjunctives have their own rules for formation, and in present tense the conjugation determines the form.
		The imperfect subjunctive is actually the present stem plus -se- plus the personal endings: porta +se+t.

	Sternberg Memory Scanning Article
		In another vocabulary (2), this is to assume the equivalence of the "span of immediate memory" (the number of items that can be recalled without error) and the "momentary capacity of consciousness" (the number of items immediately available).
		Recall was imperfect on 1.4 percent of the trials.
		The low error-rates justify the assumption that on a typical trial the series of symbols in memory was the same as the series of symbols presented.

	Violent Cases - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A narrator, who is drawn to look like Gaiman, tells of how, as a small child in Portsmouth, he was taken by his father to be treated by an osteopath who was once employed by Al Capone.
		The nature of the narrator's relationship with his father, the tales the osteopath told, and the disturbing events that followed, are partially obscured by the narrator's imperfect recall of things he was not old enough to understand at the time.
		As with many of Gaiman's other works (most notably The Sandman) Violent Cases is a story about stories, and its themes of early childhood perception and the nature of memory are visited again in 1994's Mr.

		There is another similarity in translation all these various tenses share, which is the subject of the verb is doing the action, regardless of the time at which the action took place.
		Before we get to that, the good news is the markers for imperfect and future tense are the same in active and passive voice.
		In passive voice the agent is in the ablative case, which is what you would expect if you recall that one of the uses for the ablative is instrument.

		And, essentially, this is what the recall is: it allows the electorate to remove an executive or member of the legislature who is no longer acting consistently with their preferences.
		But generally speaking, the recall provision is sound and there is no good reason why it should not be adopted elsewhere—it’s one of the few “progressivist” reforms that actually is good for democracy.
		So, for the purposes of this discussion, a “presidential system” is one in which the legislature and executive are separately elected by the people for fixed terms of office and with formal separation of powers between the executive and legislature—regardless of the actual name given to the executive.

		As you should recall from your principles class, ceteris paribus means: "all other things constant." By invoking this assumption, economists attempt to focus on the most essential relationships while holding constant those factors that are less fundamental.
		As you may recall from your principles class, a Pareto improvement is a change that benefits one or more individuals and harms no one.
		As you should recall from your principles class, externalities are side effects of production or consumption that provide either benefits or costs to those not directly involved in the transaction.

	Search Equilibrium with Endogenous Recall (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Abstract: In search models, the property of "recall" has heretofore been treated as exogenous, with a distinction made between models with "no recall" and models with "perfect recall." However, an alternative interpretation is that recall is provided by the firms.
		Then, "perfect recall" corresponds to holding the good forever, while "no recall" corresponds to a refusal to hold the good at all.
		Imperfect recall is provided if a firm agrees to hold the good for a finite number of periods.

	Thomistic Institute 2001:
		Thomas recalls the distinction between actions which remain in the agent, such as to sense, to understand, and to will, and actions which project forth and influence something else, such as to heat and to cut.
		Therefore, the form which gives merely the first grade of perfection to matter is most imperfect; but the form which gives the first and the second and the third, and so on, is most perfect; and nevertheless, it is immediately [united] to the matter.
		And this suits the intellective soul, which though it is one as to its essence, nevertheless because of its own perfection is many as to power; and therefore for the sake of the diverse operations it requires diverse dispositions in the parts of the body to which it is united.

		Namely, despite the fact that the environment does not provide any reason to believe that a causal relationship exists between the decision of the agent in question and those of future agents, the former does evaluate decisions as if the latter were guaranteed to follow her example.How can one explain such a cognitive mistake?
		We argue here that one such explanation is provided by imperfect recall.
		As the term is used in game theory, it suggests that an agent of a player might not recall what a past agent of the same player has done, or even whether it existed.

		While stimulating theoretical papers have been produced on the topic of absent-mindedness and imperfect recall, to the best of our knowledge, only Huck and Muller (IGTR, 2002), have attempted to use experimental procedures to test models with imperfect recall.
		However, the authors do not test P&R model directly but instead test an alternative version to the absent-minded driver problem proposed by Gilboa (GEB, 1997), arguing that, “using standard methods of experimental economics, it is impossible to induce (or control for) absent-mindedness of subjects.

		The foundation for such effects, in turn, is the imperfect recall of past motives and feelings, which leads people to draw inferences from their own past actions.
		We thus model the behaviour of individuals who are unsure of their willpower (ability to delay ratification) in certain states of the world, and show how self-control can be sustained by the fear of creating damaging precedents.
		We then study how recall and inference processes can themselves be endogenously determined through the use of self-sustaining cognitive rules and resolutions.

		Meanwhile, Glenn Reynolds’ semi-blog at MSNBC thinks the recall is an effective way to upset special interest politics-as-usual; I think that, again, goes to the format of the ballot, which allowed a moderate figure to run with a party label without significant initial support from that party’s activists.

	Using National Survey Data to Analyze Children’s Health Insurance Coverage: An Assessment of Issues
		To limit the impact of recall error and reduce respondent burden, the annual interviews (with more than 40,000 households) are distributed over 52 weeks, and respondents are asked to report on their current health status as well as recent utilization of health care services.
		It is well known among experienced survey researchers that respondent recall of events in the past is imperfect and that recall error grows with the length of time between the event and the present.
		Even when recall is not an issue, when insurance coverage is measured “at the present time,” survey questions that appear to request more or less the same information can generate markedly different responses.

		I'm sure someone, somewhere, has already totalled the number of G.I.'s who subsequently got "trench foot" -- many of whom ended up with amputations, because of the lack of dry and warm winter boots -- and otherwise suffered and died during the winter of 1944-1945 owing to those shortages.
		But even if there were virtually unlimited funds, every army would still go into battle imperfect, because armies are made up of and directed by humans, and humans are imperfect.

	Evaluation of a risk factor survey with three assessment methods - CDIC Vol. 23 No. 2, 2002
		Ten questions had more than 10% "don't know" responses; all were to questions requiring detailed recall about time or frequency, such as hours spent in the sun, time since screening, or frequency of fruit and vegetable consumption.
		While responses in minutes or whole hours were recorded as numeric values, combination responses ("an hour and a half", for example), were recorded as text, which then had to be converted to numeric form (1.5 hours) and manually entered into the numeric field for combining with numeric responses.
		Partial answers to fruit and vegetable consumption resulted in missing or excluded information when daily, weekly or monthly consumption was reported but quantity could not be recalled: 14.6% of respondents were unable to estimate amounts for their daily, weekly or monthly consumption of at least one fruit and vegetable category.
