But while I counted myself among those who were prepared to compromise with the Palestinians, I was gravely concerned that the assumptions underlying the Oslo process were fundamentally flawed and would not yield the historic reconciliation for which its proponents hoped.

It should be noted that an assumption of geographic uniformity stratified by age of home yielded essentially identical estimates (ranging from 59% in the South-Atlantic to 65% in New England, with census divisions defined as in Table 1), so this is unlikely to contribute to significant uncertainty in the analysis.

A bad assumption will yield a bad estimate, even if the model itself is accurate.

However, the assumptions of the formulae yield results that are close enough to actual reality that the measurements are reliable and accurate when averaged over groups of people.

Different assumptions and quantifications of these incomes will yield different Gini coefficients.

The assumption that e is normally and identically distributed (NID) yields the binary probit model.

Less conservative assumptions - and more likely ones, in Dr. Diamond's view - yielded even shorter times to extinction.

The assumptions implicit in archaeological dating methods also may yield a general bias in the dating in this timeline.

The assumptions implicit in geologic dating methods also may yield a general bias in the dating in this time line.

These assumptions, the cornerstones of the Bohr model, were not fully correct but did yield fairly correct energy answers (with a relative error in the ground state ionization energy of around α/4 or around 10).
