The continuum concept is an idea, coined by Jean Liedloff in her 1975 book The Continuum Concept , that human being s have an innate set of expectations that our evolutionary process has designed us to meet which Liedloff calls the continuum in order to achieve optimal physical, mental, and emotional Human development biology development and adaptability . According to Liedloff, in order to achieve this level of development, humans especially babies require the kind of experience to which our species adapted during the long process of our evolution by natural selection . For infants, these experiences, for example, include The infant being placed immediately in the mother s arms at birth, and from then on carried constantly in arms or otherwise in contact with someone, usually the mother, and allowed to observe or nurse, or sleep while the carrier goes about his or her business until the infant begins creeping, then crawling on his her own impulse, usually at six to eight months Co sleeping in the parents bed, in constant physical contact, until leaving of their own volition often about two years Breastfeeding on cue nursing in response to the child s body s signals Having caregivers immediately respond to body signals squirming, crying, etc. , without judgment, displeasure, or invalidation of the child s needs, yet showing no undue concern nor making the child the constant center of attention Sensing and fulfilling elders expectations that he or she is innately social and cooperative and has strong self preservation instincts, and that he or she is welcome and worthy.

Other uses Continuum disambiguation Unreferenced date April 2010 Continuum theories or models explain variation as involving a gradual quantitative transition without abrupt changes or discontinuities. It can be contrasted with categorical models which propose qualitatively different states. In physics In physics, for example, the Spacetime space time continuum model explains space and time as part of the same continuum rather than as separate entities. A spectrum in physics e.g. of light is often termed either a continuous spectrum energy at all wavelengths or discrete spectrum energy at only certain wavelengths . In contrast, quantum mechanics includes Quantum quanta , which are distinguished from continuous amounts. In mathematics and philosophy A good introduction to the philosophical issues involved is John Lane Bell s http plato.stanford.edu entries continuity essay in the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy. A significant divide is provided by the law of excluded middle . It determines the divide between Intuitionism intuitionistic continua such as Luitzen Egbertus Jan Brouwer Brouwer s and Lawvere s, and classical ones such as Simon Stevin Stevin s and Abraham Robinson Robinson s. Bell isolates two distinct historical conceptions of infinitesimal , one by Leibniz and one by Nieuwentijdt , and argues that Leibniz s conception was implemented in Robinson s hyperreal number hyperreal continuum, whereas Nieuwentijdt s, in Lawvere s smooth infinitesimal analysis , characterized by the presence of nilsquare infinitesimals It may be said that Leibniz recognized the need for the first, but not the second type of infinitesimal and Nieuwentijdt, vice versa.

Continuum mechanics deals with physical ... can be expressed in coordinate systems for computational convenience. Concept of a continuum ... can be modeled assuming the materials exist as a continuum, meaning the matter in the body is continuously distributed and fills the entire region of space it occupies . A continuum is a body that can .... The validity of the continuum assumption may be verified by a theoretical analysis, in which ... of the microstructure exists. More specifically, the continuum hypothesis assumption hinges ... a continuum of a finer resolution than that of the RVE size, one employs a statistical volume element SVE , which, in turn, leads to random continuum fields. The latter then provide a micromechanics basis for stochastic finite elements SFE . The levels of SVE and RVE link continuum mechanics to statistical ... is used to assess to what extent the approximation of continuity can be made.
