What's the difference between extraneity and extraneous?

Extraneity


Definition:

  • (n.) State of being without or beyond a thing; foreignness.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) To evaluate threshold estimates under these conditions, computer simulations of experiments with small numbers of trials were performed by using psychometric functions based on a model of two types of noise: stimulus-related noise (affecting slope) and extraneous noise (affecting upper asymptote).
  • (2) Decisions concerning appropriate treatment are often made by patients, attorneys, the disability determination system, employers, and judges for extraneous reasons, which include financial gain or personal bias and often reflect lack of current information.
  • (3) In Experiment 1, subjects exposed to a sound representing their heartbeat made greater self-attributions for hypothetical outcomes than did subjects exposed to the same sound identified as an extraneous noise.
  • (4) A simple method of affinity purification, using antigen bound to nitrocellulose, is employed to remove the reactivity with these extraneous bands from immune sera.
  • (5) An inverse Fourier transform is then used to recreate the new time domain representation, which has been appropriately filtered for extraneous noise.
  • (6) He cites the shockingly ugly examples of "predict" and "extraneous".
  • (7) The chelating approach provides a powerful means for removing a single class of unwanted, random crosslinkages, i.e., those due to extraneous polyvalent metals such as lead, cadmium and aluminum.
  • (8) The results indicated that FF procedures are easily detected; therefore, difference found between the FF and CF groups may be influenced by extraneous variables.
  • (9) Phoneme identification responses collected in the same experiments, as well as informal observations about the quality of the restored phoneme, suggested that restoration of a fricative phone distinct from the extraneous noise did not occur; rather, the spectrum of the extraneous noise itself influenced phoneme identification.
  • (10) The surface activity of the normally surface-active subtypes, when purified free of extraneous material, was close to those of normal controls.
  • (11) Using buffalo serum, first extraneous proteins were precipitated by making the serum 2.26 M saturated with ammonium sulphate at pH 7.0 and then albumin was precipitated from the supernatant at 1.9 M ammonium sulphate concentration at pH 4.2.
  • (12) Histologically and histochemically, a total denervation state was observed in the aganglionic segment, in contrast to findings in narrow segments of Hirschsprung's disease, in which intramural extraneous nerves are known to be increased.
  • (13) The trapped [beta-32P]NANDP X SF1 complex, like the comparable ADP X SF1 complex, was stable for days at 0 degree C and could be purified free of extraneous analogue by ammonium sulfate precipitation and gel filtration.
  • (14) As with the plant ferredoxins the adrenodoxin for these measurements was enriched with (57)Fe by reconstitution of the apo-protein, and subsequently was carefully purified and checked by a number of methods to ensure that it was in the same conformation as the native protein and contained no extraneous iron.
  • (15) The results showed that quality of care seemed to be related more to the orientation and perception of the ward sister than to any number of extraneous variables such as medical and paramedical input, ward facilities and ancillary staff support.
  • (16) Signal is useful variability, potentially relatable to explanatory variables, and noise is extraneous.
  • (17) In particular, studies are needed that employ prospective designs and that deliberately measure or control for the extraneous prognostic variables that may affect adjustment.
  • (18) Then by "phase-switching" on the same cartridge, 1,25(OH)2D is sufficiently resolved from other vitamin D metabolites and extraneous lipophilic compounds to allow its quantification by radioreceptor assay according to an established procedure.
  • (19) The percentage distributions obtained from the CDC data have been adjested to remove the influence of extraneous year-to-year changes in the data.
  • (20) The endogenous mono- and bipolar subtypes of major depressive disorders showed intimate connections between the various neuroendocrine functional systems and the above mentioned extraneous factors resulting in a narrowed variability and a stronger coupling in the reactivity of these hormonal functional systems, a condition which can be seen as analogous to experimental results at the psychophysiological level in these nuclear groups of depressed patients, whose psychopathological state is also characterized by similar limitations in their "degree of freedom" (Heimann).

Extraneous


Definition:

  • (a.) Not belonging to, or dependent upon, a thing; without or beyond a thing; not essential or intrinsic; foreign; as, to separate gold from extraneous matter.
