This method is useful in the laboratory as it is more convenient for handling and gives more exact quantitative results than plot experiments.
But if changes are ever to be contemplated, a simple quantitative measure is the only safeguard against utter chaos.
But it is not easy to express the connection in quantitative terms.
Functional hypotheses which postulate dependence of social factors on economy would be subject to objective, quantitative tests of their validity.
The question then becomes one of quantitative expression--we would like to have some index of the extent of dependence on various factors in the economy.
Usually the amount of actual bleached paper pulp obtained in the mill is less than the percentage obtained by careful quantitative analysis, for reasons easily understood.
We have, however, further seen that the phenomena are in reality too complex to be settled by the usual crude method of attempting to discover quantitative differences in the sexual impulse.
Since then the subject has been extensively studied, more particularly by Alexander Classen, who has summarized the methods and results in his Quantitative Chemical Analysis by Electrolysis (1903).
This section treats of the qualitative detection and separation of the metals, and the commoner methods employed inquantitative analysis.
The quantitativeprecipitation of metals by the electric current, although known to Michael Faraday, was not applied to analytical chemistry until O.
The distinction is quantitative but not qualitative.
The cognition of limited extension, which is the subject of quantitative measurement, involves the conception of unlimited space, which is the negation of all plurality and complexity of parts.
The fallacy of this reasoning consists in confounding a supposed Quantitative Infinite with the Qualitative Infinite--the totality of existence with the infinitely perfect One.
The forces of nature can be estimated in numbers, and light and heat go in undulations, whilst the movements of the great bodies in nature admit of a precise quantitative expression.
Mathematics is conversant with quantities and quantitative relations.
God alone possesses Qualitative Infinity, which is strictly synonymous with absolute perfection; and the neglect of the distinction between this and Quantitative Infinity, leads irresistibly to pantheistic and materialistic notions.
Their doctrine was a faint glimpse of that grand discovery of modern science--that all the higher laws of nature assume the form of a precise quantitative statement.
Hence the Quantitative Infinites must be also Units, and the division of space and time, implying absolute contradiction, is not even cogitable as an hypothesis.
One and a heap are opposed to one another, but yet one; or the quantitative progression seems not to change but merely to increase or diminish, yet at last it has passed into its opposite.
As to the further question of how the infinite determines the opposite in its separation, it seems that the theory of the quantitative distinction of condensation and rarefaction was held by Anaximander as well as by Thales.
Both are related to the false infinite, and the quantitative progression which can reach no qualitative opposite, and yet at the end finds itself at a qualitative absolute opposite.
Hence number is not immediate Notion, but only a beginning of thought, and a beginning in the worst possible way; it is the Notion in its extremest externality, in quantitative form, and in that of indifferent distinction.
The dialectic of this passing into one another of quantity and quality is what our understanding does not recognize; it is certain that qualitative is not quantitative, and quantitative not qualitative.
Thus much is made out, that for the first time in this natural philosophy as in the modern, that which is essential in form is really the quantitative difference in its existence.
This transition of qualitative into quantitativeopposition is not clear.
The relation borne by tones to one another is founded on quantitative differences whereby harmonies may be formed, in distinction to others by which discords are constituted.
The genus of that which is in an indifferent relationship is excess and want, the more and the less;” in this we have the quantitative relation just as we formerly had the qualitative.
The fact of glacier-motion has been known for an indefinite time to the inhabitants of the mountains; but the first who made quantitative observations of the motion was Hugi.
The qualitative problem of simultaneity is made to depend upon the quantitative problem of the measurement of time.
The straight is still distinguished from other lines by properties which remain quantitative in some respects.
These physicists even announced that they had succeeded in making quantitative measurements.
But I have spoken of scarcely more than space, and particularly quantitative space, so to say, that is of the mathematical relations whose aggregate constitutes geometry.
Therefore two difficulties: (1) Can we transform psychologic time, which is qualitative, into a quantitative time?
The village carpenter, who, lacking rational instruction, lays out his work by empirical rules learned in his apprenticeship, equally with the builder of a Britannia Bridge, makes hourly reference to the laws of quantitative relations.
Unquestionably the simplest geometry and algebra already accustom the mind to sharp quantitative thinking, as also to assume as true only axioms and what has been proven.
Such work ignores the fundamental idea out of which quantitative reasoning grows--the equality of magnitudes.
For accurate quantitative measurements it is preferable to wait till the recovery is complete.
The uniformity of stimulation which is thus attained solves the great difficulty of obtaining reliablequantitative values, by whose means alone can rigorous demonstration of the phenomena we are studying become possible.
One of the necessities in connection with quantitative measurements is to be certain that the intensity of successive stimuli is (1) constant, or (2) capable of gradual increase by known amounts.
In order to carry out these investigations, it is necessary to remove all sources of uncertainty, and obtain quantitative measurements.
This, so far as I know, is the first time that quantitative considerations are taken into account in the discussion of a physiological problem.
This sense of Beauty is something in me which demands not simply gratification but the best and keenest of a sense or continuance of sense impressions, and which refuses coarse quantitative assuagements.
The idea of Justice seems to me a defective, quantitative application of the spirit of that belief to men and women.
I think the ideas of them arise out of the system of metaphysical errors I have roughly analyzed in my first Book, out of the inherent tendency of the mind to make the relative absolute and to convert quantitative into qualitative differences.
That the calx weighed more than the metal was well known, but quantitative considerations were subordinated to those of quality, and the form of matter was studied rather than its mass.
Chemical union, to his mind, became a juxtaposition of atoms, whose relative weights were indicated by their combining numbers, and so the atomic conception for the first time was given quantitative expression.
There may be several different criteria of survival value, not comparable in any quantitative way among themselves.
Instruction in the principles of quantitative analysis.
They confront not a quantitative universe, but a qualitative.
The socialist is talking in terms of the old currency, the currency of the world's quantitative standards; but Christ introduced a new currency, which demonetises the old.
