In his theory of the development of intelligence in stages, Piaget distinguishes four different periods of development relative to the form of organization of cognitive structures, and passing organically into one another : the periods of(a) sensorimotor intelligence,(b) preoperational representation,(c) concrete operations and(d) formal operations(...) But, whereas operations at this stage [concrete operations] are still bound up with concrete activity, at the last stage of development of intelligence, the period of formal operations(11 to 15 years), they become independent of the concrete object, and the individual acquires the capacity to draw purely formal conclusions from hypothetical assumptions.  4, record 2, English, - formal%20operation

The propensity, often unconscious, to search for, assemble, present, or use evidence in such a manner as to point to a preselected endproduct or conclusion. Bias does not of necessity lead to error, since it may be anticipated and allowed for by employing adjusting or weighting devices, or ostensibly inaccurate results may be interpreted or cross-checked in a variety of ways.  2, record 4, English, - bias

Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 OBS

It is possible to extract evidence and synthesize an objective and valid picture even when employing biased or potentially biased sources of information. A principal objective in the process of auditing is the search for and correction of biases. An auditor determines the presence or lack of bias in a group of accounts receivable by circularizing persons against whom claims are held. Offsetting biases are regularly taken advantage of in the construction of "internal controls". By the operation of a normally patterned system of "internal check", valid results are deemed to follow by placing individuals with independent, opposing interests in opposition to each other and making them participants in the recording of the same transaction. The assumption underlying any such device is that the offsetting biases are of the same relative order of magnitude.  2, record 4, English, - bias

Dans le cas d'informations comptables, la mesure d'éléments à comptabiliser est partiale lorsqu'elle a tendance à aboutir systématiquement à une sous-évaluation ou à une surévaluation de ces éléments. Le choix des méthodes comptables peut être partial lorsqu'il est fait avec l'idée de favoriser les intérêts d'utilisateurs particuliers ou la réalisation d'objectifs économiques ou politiques précis. L'auditeur doit tenir compte de la possibilité d'un parti pris général dans les estimations comptables, et aussi de la possibilité que l'orientation du parti pris change de manière importante d'un exercice à l'autre, situations qui sont susceptibles de produire des résultats inexacts.  1, record 4, French, - parti%20pris

Dead reckoning is a technique of computing the position of a vehicle from its distance and heading measurements. It is an inertial system which uses two independent sensors from which distance and heading information can be extracted. Because each position is relative, cumulative drift errors occur on an average of 2% of the distance traveled. The system consists of a magnetic compass or gyroscope for heading and odometer for distance. Dead reckoning is often combined with map matching to correct for drift errors. It performs well when combined with highly accurate digital maps. It can also be used to back up GPS during satellite visibility outages.  3, record 10, English, - cumulative%20drift
