		The trichotomous model and investment in learning to prepare for a sport test: A mediational analysis
		The study was designed to investigate the direct and mediational effects of three experimental goal conditions on the time in which pupils prepared for a sport test.
		The trichotomous model appears to be valid for the study of motivational processes in school physical education.

		The trichotomous view was considered an orthodox interpretation in the first three centuries of the church.
		The trichotomic conception of man found considerable favor with the Greek or Alexandrian Church Fathers in the early Christian centuries.
		One reason may be that his references to the soul as the immaterial part (in contrast to the body) have been taken as evidence of dichotomy in his writings.

		They are not "parts," as in a trichotomous view, but an emphatic way for an element to stand for the whole, and for a series of parallel terms to emphasize a point.
		There may be some sense in which the terms may reflect the person as seen from various points of emphasis, for example, the person in relation to God’s gift of life (spirit), in relation to his existence as a human being (soul), and in relation to his existence in a physical world (body).
		But that is not quite the same as a trichotomous view, even a functional trichotomy.

		The distribution of these variables is given in figure 6.3.
		Levels 1 and 2 of the trichotomous stress were encountered 120 and 119 times (for both a corresponding probability of 0.46), while level 3 was encountered 22 times (for a probability of 0.08).
		Regarding the dichotomous stress variable, the low stress level BSTRE=0 was seen 204 times, accounting for 78% of all states, leaving 22% for the higher stress level.

	The Structure of Wholeness
		The difference between the two systems is that the trichotomous system includes BOTH/AND states, the specific order of which is not determined until the user shows ‘intent’ - how you wish to analyze.
		Thus in neural net systems, the path from input layer to hidden layer is dichotomous and the path from hidden layer to output layer is trichotomous.
		Since the author's analysis of dichotomous analysis suggests that the method is hard-wired and is an adaption to 'out there' it follows that trichotomous synthesis is also from 'out there' and is the other end of the dichotomy process.

	Power Loss for Linkage Analysis due to the Dichotomization of Trichotomous Phenotypes
		Methods: To examine this power loss, we performed a simulation study where a trichotomous trait was simulated in a sample of 1,000 sib-pairs under various genetic models.
		Linkage analysis using a variance components method, as implemented in Mx, was then performed on the trichotomous trait and compared with that on a dichotomized version of the trait.
		Results: A comparison of the power and false positive rates of the analyses shows that power to detect linkage was increased by up to 22 percentage points simply by examining the trait as a trichotomy instead of a dichotomy.

	BioMed Central \| Full text \| Multivariate sib-pair linkage analysis of longitudinal phenotypes by three step-wise ...
		Finally, we answered the theoretical question "Is a trichotomous phenotype more efficient than a binary?" Unlike logistic regression, discriminant sib-pair linkage analysis might have more power to detect linkage to a binary phenotype than a trichotomous one.
		The groups for the trichotomous HBP were defined similarly, resulting in six mutually exclusive groups and each representing a specific combination of two ordinal values of a sib-pair.
		It is evident that for most of the markers, the statistic for trichotomous HBP is much lower than that for the corresponding binary trait.

		It could be said also he is a trichotomous being.
		Often when the Bible addresses the specifics of the nature of man it does so from a trichotomous view--a body experiencing the Spirit of God which produces a soul.

	TRINPsite: Book of Fundamentals: Holding on to a Tree with Distinctive Ramifications
		Such a system consists of the decimal equivalents of the numbers obtained by reading the code of an entirely dichotomous classification as one binary number (instead of as a set of binary numbers each representing one classificatory level).
		(For example, the decimal number 9 corresponds to a binary number 1001 which stands for 1.0.0.1.) This system requires that every nomenclatural level of a trichotomous, tetratomic, pentatomic or polytomic subdivision be replaced first by two or more levels of dichotomous subdivisions.
		But if the nondichotomous subdivision is not logically exhaustive, this only enhances the reliability of the classification system, because the dichotomous taxonomy, if properly applied, has a built-in safeguard against neglecting or arbitrarily leaving out any lower-level exclusivism.

	20th WCP: Why Granny Should Have Read French Philosophers: The Phenomenology of Fodor or the Modularity of Merleau-Ponty
		His theory employs a trichotomous functional architecture to explain cognitive processes, which is very similar to Merleau-Ponty’s phenomenology of perception.
		Both theories employ a trichotomous functional architecture to explain cognition and view perception as a mid-level processing of information that lies between the world and consciousness.
		The key feature that differentiates the views is whether that middle level of processing is completely impenetrable by consciousness.

	Testing the trichotomous model of achievement motivation in the UK (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		According to the Trichotomous model (Elliot, 1997), three achievement goals account for variations in competence-based strivings: a) mastery goals focus on competence development and task mastery; b) performance-approach goals focus on attaining favourable judgements of normative competence, and c) performance avoidance goals focus on avoiding unfavourable judgements of normative competence.
		The present study tests the Trichotomous model on a British sample.
		These findings confirm the construct validity of the Trichotomous model with a British sample.

		that the trichotomous mindset leads to a denigration of the intellect and of rigorous doctrinal study.
		Paul’s use of the phrase, “the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets” in verse 32 also shows conscious understanding and speaking by the spirit in man, which contradicts the trichotomous view of Charismatics.
		In conclusion, a trichotomous interpretation of 1 Cor 14 is necessary to support Charismatic doctrine, but this leads to all kinds of inconsistencies and problems within the chapter and with the rest of the Bible.

		The purpose of this study was to examine whether the trichotomous and 2*2 models are appropriate in high school physical education (PE) settings and which model might represent a better fit to the data.
		Cronbach's alpha coefficients and confirmatory factor analyses were employed to examine internal consistency and construct validity of test scores produced by the trichotomous and 2*2 AGQ-PE.
		Based on the current findings, we are confident that the 22 model is a better fit for high school PE students than the trichotomous* model.

		This relation is transitive (a < b and b < c implies a < c) and, unlike ≤, trichotomous (i.e., exactly one of a < b, b < a and a = b is true).
		We can work the other way and start by choosing < as a transitive trichotomous binary relation; then if we define a ≤ b to mean a < b or a = b then ≤ can be shown to be a total order.
		Totally ordered sets form a full subcategory of the category of partially ordered sets, with the morphisms being maps which respect the orders, i.e.

	Antipas Papers/Body, Soul & Spirit
		Even as late as Augustine (A.D. 354-430), the common view was that man was trichotomous - that he possessed a body, a soul, and a spirit.
		The belief that each individual Christian has a spirit and can be led individually by that spirit without resort to "outward authority" is a threat to post-millennialism's pyramid-like structure and scheme of things.
		For post-millennialists to admit that man is a trichotomous being and ipso facto not dependent on hierarchy to guide and direct him is tantamount to destroying the necessity for post-millennialism's pyramid.

	Tripartite Man: refs. include Watchman Nee and Witness Lee
		The purpose of this Web site* is to unveil the nature of man as a being composed of three parts and to explain how vital each of these three parts is to the fulfillment of God’s purpose.
		We describe this man as the tripartite man. Throughout history, seeking believers have discovered in their study of the Bible that man is indeed a trichotomous being created with three parts—spirit, soul, and body in order to enable him to contact and live within the spiritual, psychological and physical realms, respectively.
		An understanding of these three parts and of their particular functions is therefore essential in any attempt to explain either our human experience or our Christian experience.

	The effectiveness of hysterectomy for chronic pelvic pain -- Hillis et al. 86 (6): 941 -- Obstetrics & Gynecology
		METHODS: A group of 308 women who had hysterectomy for chronic pelvic pain of at least 6 months' duration was followed-up for 1 year after surgery, as part of a large, prospective, multicenter cohort study.
		Persistent pain was defined as a trichotomous variable, and ordinal logistic regression was used to identify independent predictors of the trichotomous outcome.
		RESULTS: Overall, 74% of women experienced complete resolution of pelvic pain, 21% reported continued but decreased pain, and 5% reported either unchanged or increased pain after hysterectomy.
