  2. Frequency format hypothesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_format_hypothesis

    The frequency format hypothesis is the idea that the brain understands and processes information better when presented in frequency formats rather than a numerical or probability format. Thus according to the hypothesis, presenting information as 1 in 5 people rather than 20% leads to better comprehension.

  3. Frequency allocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_allocation

    Frequency allocation (or spectrum allocation) is the part of spectrum management dealing with the designation and regulation of the electromagnetic spectrum into frequency bands, normally done by governments in most countries. [1] Because radio propagation does not stop at national boundaries, governments have sought to harmonise the allocation ...

  4. Social value orientations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_Value_Orientations

    By observing which own-other resource allocation a person chooses in a decomposed game, it is possible to infer that person's preferences over own-other resource allocations, i.e. social value orientation. Since there is no other person making a decision that affects the joint outcome, there is no interdependence, and therefore a potential ...

  5. Operant conditioning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operant_conditioning

    Example: if a rat in a Skinner box gets food when it presses a lever, its rate of pressing will go up. Pressing the lever was positively reinforced. Pressing the lever was positively reinforced. Negative reinforcement (a.k.a. escape) occurs when a behavior (response) is followed by the removal of an aversive stimulus, thereby increasing the ...

  6. Range–frequency theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range–frequency_theory

    The range–frequency compromise in judgment is a theory in cognitive psychology developed by Allen Parducci in the mid-1960s. Range–frequency is descriptive of how judgments reflect a compromise between a range principle that assigns each category to an equal subrange of contextual stimuli and a frequency principle that assigns each of the categories to the same number of contextual stimuli.

  7. Frequency (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_(statistics)

    Each entry in the table contains the frequency or count of the occurrences of values within a particular group or interval, and in this way, the table summarizes the distribution of values in the sample. This is an example of a univariate (=single variable) frequency table. The frequency of each response to a survey question is depicted.

  8. Radio resource management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_Resource_Management

    Examples: Frequency allocation band plans decided by standardization bodies, by national frequency authorities and in frequency resource auctions. Deployment of base station sites (or broadcasting transmitter site) Antenna heights; Channel frequency plans; Sector antenna directions; Selection of modulation and channel coding parameters

  9. Time preference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_preference

    Work on time preference began with John Rae’s “The Sociological Theory of Capital” in an attempt to answer why wealth differed across nations. [1] He theorized that it was due to differences in saving an investment from the population, ultimately driven by tolerance for uncertainty and ability to delay gratification. [1]
