This paper explores two types of degree modifiers in German, namely total and voll. While most degree modifiers are usually placed inside an NP, total and voll frequently appear in a position outside of an NP, giving them the function of intensifiers rather than pure modifiers. Hence, they become NP-external intensifiers. Previous studies have sugg...

Objective. This study aims to develop a model that provides a better understanding of the motivation of teaching staff in higher education institutions (HEI) from a complexity perspective. Methodology. It is a correlational-descriptive type of research, with a mixed research method and a motivation-dependent category. The research is linked to a ca...

This work considers what ontology might be after the deconstruction of arché in Reiner Schürmann's and Giorgio Agamben's thinking. It addresses the question by reading Schürmanns historical deduction of the categories of presencing in his book Heidegger On being Acting: From Principles to Anarchy. This deduction is at the heart of his thought in th...

Statistical learning (SL) is postulated to play an important role in the process of language acquisition as well as in other cognitive functions. It was found to enable learning of various types of statistical patterns across different sensory modalities. However, few studies have distinguished distributional SL (DSL) from sequential and spatial SL...

This paper describes a formal proof library, developed using the Coq proof assistant, designed to assist users in writing correct diagrammatic proofs, for 1-categories. This library proposes a deep-embedded, domain-specific formal language, which features dedicated proof commands to automate the synthesis, and the verification, of the technical par...

Categorizations have been, throughout human history, a means of entering known and recognized places, becoming spaces of belonging and reference with which to construct personal and collective identity and identification. Categorizations function as containers of meaning to generalize and synthesize information about certain collectives or social g...

The purpose of this article is to study one aspect of Aristotle’s use of the Greek language: the indirect interrogative clauses. Firstly, we briefly review the juxtaposition-coordina-tion-subordination relationships in the Indo-European and ancient Greek languages, and identify five hypotactic markers, following Humbert. Then, we examine Aristotle’...

A remarkable ability, that one may take for granted, is the ability to name object that you encounter for the first time when these are members of categories you know. This is possible thanks to our conceptual system and our ability to generalize names between same category members. It is priceless for organizing the world around us and communicati...

Cross-linguistic differences in concepts have implications for all theories of concepts, not just for grounded ones. Failure to address these implications does not imply the belief that they do not exist. Instead, it reflects a division of labor between researchers who focus on general principles versus cultural variability. Furthermore, core princ...

Monads in category theory are algebraic structures that can be used to model computational effects in programming languages. We show how the notion of "centre", and more generally "centrality", i.e., the property for an effect to commute with all other effects, may be formulated for strong monads acting on symmetric monoidal categories. We identify...
