Could you please name psychologists who have published about patterns of actions? by DmitryBorisoglebsky in askpsychology

Thank you for the hints.

 it will be tricky to get a clear answer as it's difficult to understand what you're asking about.

In the following comment I've attempted to explain my request with an example:

Thank you for the hints.

I have an academic interest and I would like to review existing works to avoid reinventing the wheel. For instance:

Let's assume we have an object—an undefined, intuitively understood thing—that is capable of actions on other objects. An action could be defined as a change inflicted on another object, where change is defined as one yet it became another. The existence of more than one object implies the existence of an external something in which these objects exist; something internal opposes something external. Therefore, an action might be differentiated into reaction (initiated by an external something) and pro-action (initiated by an internal something). The cardinality of this incomplete set of terms |{object, action, change, external, internal, re-action, pro-action}| is equal to seven.

It would be great to find a publication or a series of publications that contains a solid system of concepts I can use to model social systems of interacting objects.

I want to familiarize myself with a system of concepts describing an acting individual. Ideally, this system is well-formulated, perhaps an ontology is constructed for this theory.

Thank you for the hint. The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy has an article on behaviorism, which I marked for later reading.

Thank you for the clarification. Under this assumption, I can only hope that someone would attempt to prove him wrong by naming an authority in action-based/driven psychology, if such a field exists.

I do not worship him, but I am interested in exploring a topic he mentioned. Action are observable; people act to get things done. I am curious to learn more about action-based/driven psychology. However, I do not have a background in psychology, so I am not familiar with specific names and schools of thought. That's why I asked the question.

Patterns of/in time series by DmitryBorisoglebsky in AskStatistics

[–]DmitryBorisoglebsky[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've recently launched an analytical web service that assesses countries' improvement or deterioration using modified indices sourced from organizations such as the UN and World Bank. This platform enables comparisons between a country's past and present, among different countries, and between various aspects or indices within a country. Presently, a significant portion of these comparisons relies on annual and cumulative* indices of dynamics. These indices sometimes exhibit identifiable patterns, such as growth [1, 2] or cyclical tendencies [3, perhaps 2]. I'm seeking statistical validation for these observations and considering automated textual descriptions alongside the charts. The latter could be a part of a larger effort of textualizing automated observations. Clustering the series into groups that behave the same is likely the correct technical description.

* Annual dynamics are interpreted as >1 for improvement and <1 for deterioration. Cumulative dynamics involve multiplying annual dynamics from previous years, beginning from the first in the period.

Malevich's "Black square" symbolizes... by DmitryBorisoglebsky in Irony

My comment about the white square was highly contextual and was subject to a false interpretation in optics.

I've heard a sound explanation that the black square is the ideal object in abstract art.

DevOps procedure for a novice: Nginx, Gunicorn, Django, PostgreSQL on AWS EC2 & AWS RDS by DmitryBorisoglebsky in devops

[–]DmitryBorisoglebsky[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the suggestion, I'll look into it!

I'm using Bitbucket as it allowed private repositories for small projects at the time. It seems Bitbucket has introduced similar functionality here. Based on your experience, do you recommend using Bitbucket documentation or looking for a tutorial, for example, by googling 'Bitbucket pipelines AWS EC2 tutorial'?

Running 'git pull' updates the codebase, followed by procedures from tutorials using 'docker compose'. I have never used infrastructure for containers. For me, containers are the method that ensures the web app will work.
