    Point of reference is the intentional use of one thing to indicate something else, and may refer to: Reference point (disambiguation), general usage;

  3. Frame of reference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frame_of_reference

    An example is an observational frame of reference centered at a point on the Earth's surface. This frame of reference orbits around the center of the Earth, which introduces the fictitious forces known as the Coriolis force, centrifugal force, and gravitational force. (All of these forces including gravity disappear in a truly inertial ...

    Points can then be located with reference to the origin by giving their numerical coordinates—that is, the positions of their projections along each axis, either in the positive or negative direction. The coordinates of the origin are always all zero, for example (0,0) in two dimensions and (0,0,0) in three.

  7. Reference - Wikipedia

    A reference is a relationship between objects in which one object designates, or acts as a means by which to connect to or link to, another object.

  8. Inertial frame of reference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inertial_frame_of_reference

    The vector from the origin of an inertial reference frame to the origin of an accelerated reference frame is commonly notated as R. Given a point of interest that exists in both frames, the vector from the inertial origin to the point is called r, and the vector from the accelerated origin to the point is called r′.

  9. Reference dependence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_dependence

    Reference dependence studies are commonly critiqued on the context in which they provoke responses and to the accuracies in measuring highly malleable reference points. [5] Reference points that appear to be random in nature can also influence the decision of the individual choice. [6] Ariely et al. (2003) were able to show that when a random ...
