1·As long as positivism does not explain philosophies and theories, and the plans and policies derived from them, in terms of its stimulus-response scheme, it defeats itself.
既然实证主义不能解释哲学和理论，以及由此制定的计划和政策。那么其所谓的刺激—反应机制，就自证其错。
2·Positivism flatly denies that any field of inquiry is open for teleological research.
实证主义断然否定那些采用目的论做研究的领域。
3·How does positivism confront all kinds of post modernity thoughts?
实证主义如何面对各种后现代性的思想？
4·The crisis of modern psychology originates from its over-dependence on positivism and exceeding pursuit for natural science research pattern.
现代心理学危机产生的根源在于过分依赖实证主义及过分追求自然科学的研究模式。
5·New Criticism receives influence from logical positivism through Richards'semantic analysis. The result of this influence is the critical approach of New Criticism known as "close reading".
新批评主要通过瑞恰慈的语义分析方法而接受逻辑实证主义的影响，这种影响的结果便是新批评的“细读”批评方法。
