1906C. S. Peirce in Monist XVI. 512 A Predicate is either non-relative, or a monad..as is ‘black’; or it is a dyadic relative, or dyad, such as ‘kills’, or it is a polyadic relative, such as ‘gives’. 1919A. N. Whitehead Enquiry Princ. Nat. Knowl. vii. 84 A percipient event in the polyadic relation of a sense-object to nature is the percipient event of an awareness which includes this recognition of that sense-object. 1933C. D. Broad Exam. McTaggart's Philos. I. iv. xv. 282 We must distinguish extent of application, which belongs to all characteristics, from ‘polyadicity’, which belongs only to relations. 1950W. V. Quine Methods of Logic (1952) iii. 135 We also have occasion to speak of monadic and polyadic schemata, referring thereby rather to the absence or presence of polyadically occurring predicate letters. 1964E. A. Nida Toward Sci. Transl. v. 111 For the most part these differences are binary or dyadic, but they may be singular or multiple (or polyadic). 1972W. V. Quine Methods of Logic (ed. 3) iii. xxv. 141 The polyadic ingredients—‘Hxy’ and its suite—are what are new. |
