discriminant

noun dɪˈskrɪmɪnəntdəˈskrɪmənənt

Example sentencesExamples
- We thus obtained measures of environmental and mammal community characteristics, independent of the discriminant analyses of macrohabitats.
- Although there is general agreement that service quality and satisfaction are distinct constructs, some researchers have had difficulty establishing the discriminant validity of the two constructs.
- In order to assess significant characteristics of young people with different drug use patterns, discriminant analyses were also applied.
- The relative impact of these characteristics was explored in discriminant analyses.
- Despite these high correlations, the analysis of discriminant validity shows that these are in fact three distinct constructs.
1. 1.1Mathematics A function of the coefficients of a polynomial equation whose value gives information about the roots of the polynomial.

  Example sentencesExamples
  Laplace, in 1795, tried to prove the FTA using a completely different approach using the discriminant of a polynomial.
  Variable represents the discriminant of the cubic polynomial,
