What's the difference between contradictoriness and contradictory?
Contradictoriness
Definition:
(n.) The quality of being contradictory; opposition; inconsistency.
Example Sentences:
(1) The relationships between the menopause and risk factors for ischaemic heart disease are complex, which may be one reason for the contradictory results when relating menopausal age to the incidence of ischaemic heart disease.
(2) (1) EXCP appears to be a more serious finding only in those higher risk individuals with either a positive EXECG or lower MAXRPP; (2) EXCP and its interactions may help discriminate between anginal and nonanginal, exertional chest pain, and (3) the contradictory results found when EXCP was allowed to interact may explain conflicting results in previous multivariate models regarding the predictive significance of EXCP.
(3) We suggest a model for transcription that involves the participation of a nucleoskeleton at the active site and reconcile the contradictory results obtained using different salt concentrations.
(4) A few days on, we still don't know much , and the evidence against Lewthwaite is scant and contradictory.
(5) The literature on the possible risk of myasthenia gravis complicating pregnancy and delivery is sparse and partly contradictory but some of the reports on the number of perinatal and neonatal deaths are alarming.
(6) This seemed contradictory for a government keen on getting people out of their cars, and given that at the time the Treasury finances were relatively healthy.
(7) A former ministerial colleague of Iain Duncan Smith once put it to me that he was a striking example of cognitive dissonance: that is, of holding two or more contradictory beliefs in his head at any given moment.
(8) The often changing and contradictory assessments made of the situation in different countries and at different times are outlined, and the difficulty of making a balanced and just evaluation of long established drugs is shown, particularly if the available data are derived primarily from spontaneous reports which, besides being almost impossible to verify, are often incomplete.
(9) Up to now there are contradictory findings as to the presence of an endogenous opioid antagonist.
(10) This finding is contradictory to the generally held view that antagonist-induced opioid receptor up-regulation in brain increases asymptotically, leveling off after a relatively brief treatment period.
(11) However, the literature provides little information on this and is contradictory.
(12) Contradictory data have recently been published from two different laboratories on the presence vs absence of an intrinsic endonucliolytic activity of E. coli exonuclease III at apurinic sites in double-stranded DNA.
(13) The test is commonly used as a preoperative screen to predict hemorrhage, but the data supporting this indication are contradictory at best.
(14) In view of the contradictory results reported in the literature regarding induction of specific immunologic tolerance to mechlorethamine hydrochloride (HN2), the problem was reinvestigated using a "tolerogenic" schedule that had been reported to be effective.
(15) By compromising these contradictory requirements, small dialkylamino (including cyclic amino) groups were decided to be the most favorable substituents.
(16) Evidence is presented to demonstrate that two different "melanotic" genes were being considered, thus explaining the apparently contradictory reports.
(17) In type 2 diabetics contradictory results have been obtained, probably related to varying degrees of body overweight in the patients investigated.
(18) This appears to be contradictory to the current view that a decrease in serum PRL levels with a concurrent increase in the intracellular PRL levels caused by bromocriptine treatment results from the inhibition of exocytosis of secretory granules.
(19) The literature is contradictory regarding the effect of static magnetic fields on the function of the central nervous system of mammals.
(20) The evidence for the involvement of Ca2+ in dPRL release is based on contradictory or unclear data.
Contradictory
Definition:
(a.) Affirming the contrary; implying a denial of what has been asserted; also, mutually contradicting; inconsistent.
(a.) Opposing or opposed; repugnant.
(n.) A proposition or thing which denies or opposes another; contrariety.
