According to the textbook,robust is the ability of a statistic procedure to produce valid estimated values for a population characteristic despite violations of the assumptions on which the procedure is based. The most important criteria of a useful theory is its ability to stimulate and guide further research. A theory must be evaluated on its ability to be confirmed or unconfirmed. A useful theory should also be able to organize those research data that are not compatible with each other. Useful theory has the ability to guide the partitioner over the rough course of day-to-day problems. An theory is an hypothesis that can be verified by direct observations while and idea is just a thought. Determinism versus free choice is that we as human beings have no control over what we do in life under some circumstances. For instance, I have a cousin that was diagnosed with schizophrenia, a lot of her action are unpredictable and not safer for her and others sometimes. Most of the time this is due to her not taking her meds as she should. Her behavior and emotions are usually unstable,she often has delusions,disorganized thinking,and has extreme abnormal motor behavior.
