The World Values ​​Survey (WVS) is a worldwide network of researchers studying values ​​and their impact on social and political life. The network mainly collects data on people's values ​​via extensi

Journal of Combinatorial Designs, Volume 27, Issue 4, p. 229-250, doi.org/10.1002/jcd.21642 Abstract We have performed a complete enumeration of nonisotopic triples of mutually orthogonal Latin rectangle. Here we will present a census of such triples, classified by various properties, including the order of the autotopism group of the triple. As part of this, we have also achieved the first enumeration of pairwise orthogonal triples of Youden rectangles. We have also studied orthogonal triples of rectangles which are formed by extending mutually orthogonal triples with nontrivial autotopisms one row at a time, and requiring that the autotopism group is nontrivial in each step. This class includes a triple coming from the projective plane of order 8. Here we find a remarkably symmetrical pair of triples of rectangles, formed by juxtaposing two selected copies of complete sets of mutually orthogonal Latin squares of order 4.

The conversational context and conceptual engineering

Conceptual engineering concerns what it is for a concept to be defective and therefor ameliorated or abolished. The goal of this project, however, is to shift the focus to the role of the context, which might help us understand conflicts about the meaning of our words.
