  2. Splitting (psychology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Splitting_(psychology)

    Splitting, also called binary thinking, black-and-white thinking, all-or-nothing thinking, or thinking in extremes, is the failure in a person's thinking to bring together the dichotomy of both perceived positive and negative qualities of something into a cohesive, realistic whole.

  3. Dichotomous thinking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dichotomous_thinking

    In statistics, dichotomous thinking or binary thinking is the process of seeing a discontinuity in the possible values that a p-value can take during null hypothesis significance testing: it is either above the significance threshold (usually 0.05) or below. When applying dichotomous thinking, a first p-value of 0.0499 will be interpreted the ...

  4. Bacterial growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacterial_growth

    Bacterial growth is proliferation of bacterium into two daughter cells, in a process called binary fission. Providing no mutation event occurs, the resulting daughter cells are genetically identical to the original cell. Hence, bacterial growth occurs. Both daughter cells from the division do not necessarily survive.

  5. Cluster decay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cluster_decay

    Cluster decay, also named heavy particle radioactivity, heavy ion radioactivity or heavy cluster decay, [1] is a rare type of nuclear decay in which an atomic nucleus emits a small "cluster" of neutrons and protons, more than in an alpha particle, but less than a typical binary fission fragment.

  6. Binary classification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_classification

    Binary classification is the task of classifying the elements of a set into one of two groups (each called class). Typical binary classification problems include: Medical testing to determine if a patient has a certain disease or not; Quality control in industry, deciding whether a specification has been met;

  7. Numerical cognition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_cognition

    Numerical cognition is a subdiscipline of cognitive science that studies the cognitive, developmental and neural bases of numbers and mathematics.As with many cognitive science endeavors, this is a highly interdisciplinary topic, and includes researchers in cognitive psychology, developmental psychology, neuroscience and cognitive linguistics.

  8. Amitosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amitosis

    Amitosis, also known as karyostenosis, direct cell division, or binary fission, is a mode of asexual cell division primarily observed in prokaryotes.This process is distinct from other cell division mechanisms such as mitosis and meiosis, mainly because it bypasses the complexities associated with the mitotic apparatus, such as spindle formation.

  9. Dual consciousness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_consciousness

    Dual consciousness (or Dual mind / Divided consciousness) is a hypothesis or concept in neuroscience.It is proposed that it is possible that a person may develop two separate conscious entities within their one brain after undergoing a corpus callosotomy.
