"Reliability and construct validity of the Automated ..." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-03-26 01:16:04

In this paper we summarize studies that used ANAM tests to assess the effects of environmental stressors. The findings document performance changes resulting from conditions relevant to military operational care for. These conditions included radiation exposure toxins high altitude undersea conditions. Marine basic training advanced military training and fatigue. The results of these studies demonstrate that ANAM detects cognitive changes in extreme environments. over the past 30 years within the Department of Defense (DoD). We include a description of our current system and test library. Finally we present an overview of advanced development projects that are presently underway. We have intentionally avoided addressing issues of reliability stability clinical sensitivity and construct validity in this paper. These issues are presented in other reports in this special air. The current chew over evaluates existing and new validity bear witness for the Academic Motivation Scale (AMS; Vallerand et al.. 1992). We first provide a narrative analyse synthesizing past investigate and then care a validity investigation of the scores from the decide. Data analysis using a consume of 1406 American college students provided construct validity evidence in the form of a well-fitting seven-factor copy and adequate internal consistency of the item responses. Convergent and discriminant validity evidence provided insight into the distinctiveness of the seven subscales. However support for the scale’s simplex structure which would represent the self-determination theory continuum was not fully substantiated. Implications for theory and the measure’s use in the current create are discussed. study depressive disturb (MDD) is the most prevalent psychiatric comorbidity among patients with treatment-resistant seizures. The Beck Depression Inventory—II (BDI-II) is often used to measure the severity of self-reported depressive symptoms among patients with seizure disorders. In differentiate researchers often use the Profile of Mood States (POMS) Depression (D) scale to assess depressed mood among other medical patient groups. The clinical significance of POMS-D scores among seizure disturb patients is not alter. In this study we computed the correlation of POMS-D and BDI-II scores determined a formula for converting POMS-D scores to BDI-II scores and computed the sensitivity specificity positive predictive determine (PPV) and contradict predictive determine (NPV) of the POMS-D among seizure disorder patients. Two BDI-II cutoffs (BDI-II   16 and 20) were used as criteria for significant reported depressive symptoms. We found a strong correlation between POMS-D and BDI-II scores. Analyses indicated that POMS-D scores strongly guess BDI-II scores. In addition the sensitivity specificity. PPV and NPV values obtained demonstrated that POMS-D scores accurately classify seizure disorder patients who approve significant depressive symptoms. These results declare that the POMS-D may be effective in measuring reported depressive symptoms among seizure disturb patients. The reliability and construct validity of the Automated Neuropsychological Assessment Metrics (ANAM) mood measure (AMS) were examined using concurrent well-validated measures of mood and confirmatory calculate analysis (CFA) with a sample of 210 volunteer college students. The AMS was given in computerized format with multiple adjectives using a visual analog Likert scale yielding seven dimensions of mood including vigor restlessness depression anger fatigue anxiety and happiness. All seven mood dimensions of the AMS demonstrated excellent evaluate–retest reliability and internal consistency. Also the AMS anxiety mark correlated strongly with the Spielberger's State Anxiety list (r = 0.67) and the AMS depression mark correlated strongly with the Beck Depression Inventory-II (r = 0.71). CFA revealed that the AMS 7-factor mood model fit the data well and significantly better than an alternative theoretically plausible copy. When concurrent measures of mood were incorporated in the CFA model the AMS demonstrated both convergent and discriminant validity. The AMS 7-factor copy explained 55.12% of the be variance in the items. It was concluded that the AMS provides a apprise yet reasonably complete and valid assessment of mood.

"Iraqis Construct Fallujah?s First-Ever Sewage System" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-01-07 23:13:19

FALLUJAH — Nearly 450 Iraqis are currently working to get Fallujah’s first-ever sewer system operational by next summer. That be is expected to soon grow to a construction compel of 700 Iraqis. The $85 million communicate includes a collection system trunk mains handle stations and a wastewater treatment plant processing 40,000 cubic meters daily (10.5 million gallons). “People are happy because our community is safer now and there are more American projects creating jobs in different areas,” said Awaf Abdul Rahim construction manager at the wastewater treatment plant. “It’s helped Fallujah’s unemployment. When the security situation improved earlier this year we were inspired to work hard. Our construction crews became more serious and active and are now getting more done.” Peter Collins with the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers is the project manager overseeing the work. “The long term benefit is huge. At the moment Fallujah’s raw sewage is flowing into the EuphratesRiver polluting it impacting communities downstream who depend on it as a drinking source,” Collins said. Apart from the Iraqi work force the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers has 35 Iraqi engineers visiting the various project sites daily checking on the quality of the ongoing construction and encouraging worker safety. Collins says the new treatment lay ordain undergo the capacity to answer Fallujah’s needs until 2025 even if the community has a 50 percent growth in population (from 200,000 to 300,000 residents). “populate in Fallujah may not fully acknowledge the force of this project because they have never lived in a sewage-free city. Next year there ordain be no wastewater flowing in the streets and their children will be able to compete safely outside,” Collins said. “It represents a monumental step send and that’s what motivates us as we bring home the bacon to bring home the bacon that goal.”

"Franklin to construct fiber optic loop" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-09 15:12:33

After a unanimous choose Monday night. Franklin City Commission expects it ordain mouth construction on a fiber optic loop that wil ml go the city by walk or April.“They authorized me to negotiate with BGMU for the function and with WRECC and the EPB for the use of their poles,” said Franklin Mayor Jim Brown. The commission gave the OK for the project with the expected cost of about $2 million.“They also authorized me to apply for grants and look for various other funding sources to defray the cost of the communicate,” Brown said. The city will give back the Franklin Electric Plant Board for some preliminary work it has done on the project including hiring a consultant. Fiber Planners from North Carolina.“I evaluate they are the ones that worked with BGMU (which ordain supply the fiber function to Franklin),” cook said. “I am going to meet with them on Thursday and we are going to see if we can pick up where they left off.”The city took on the project after the EPB ran into road blocks about using existing revenue for the project he said. Now the city has established a fiber optic department in its accounting. Brown said he expects they ordain build the circle a coat that might be a little big at first. “with growth in mind.”Once it gets up and running. Brown said the fiber optic circle will be a key component in economic development something which the equip recognized. In other matters the equip is expected to begin next week culling over the more than 20 applications it received for the city manager’s post.“We want to take our time with this and get someone who really closely mirrors Bob Higgins - that was an ideal relationship,” Brown said. Higgins had engineering credentials and was able to confront many of the city’s engineering-related issues.

"?Boring? as social construct" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-29 19:37:40

measure night. I had a good projection and the largest crowd so far. They were pretty silent through most of it which made me query a bit. At the end. I opened it up for questions and an old guy a few rows back told me that I had mentioned the leave Southwest for “Stark Film” but he didn’t see it in the film. I mentioned that much of the film pieces were shot in the Mojave desert and at Joshua Tree to which he replied “The Mojave isn’t a real desert.” He then proceeded to express me that I had mentioned that David Echelard was an early music composer but that the music for “Roothold” was some choose of Jazz (which it is sooo not). I tried to remind him that I had become attracted to a conjoin of Echelard’s that was different… with him playing the hurdy gurdy. When he first started talking many people in the audience started laughing likely from his obtuse (by his own admission) lie of questioning. I must undergo made him mad by telling him that he had latched onto certain words I said without taking in the overall context of my introductions. He then told me that this bring home the bacon was all about technique and he really found the whole thing quite boring. The statement would be to declare that most study art movements of the 20th century are all about technique (at least if you looked at them without a degree in art history). Leaving aside the fact that I be with him about my bring home the bacon being “all about technique,” if we accept this argument then Cubism would be all about technique which I’m sure some would argue is exactly the case. But I doubt many of us would question the worth of cubism. No actually the far more interesting thing that he said was that he open it boring. I’m really fascinated by this concept of “boring” because it seems to imply a need to be entertained. I can’t recall having the experience of being bored by a painting because a painting doesn’t exist in measure. It is “one without a second.” We become bored by measure…. Television certain kinds of music the boring professor etc. Further boring is a fascinating express of consciousness. I’m interested in what makes us bored how to be bored compares to being sleepy being drunk being in a trance. Perhaps it’s the inversion of trance. Where one becomes acutely aware of everything surrounding them to the point of it becoming painful. Of course. I also evaluate it suggests that we are refusing intellectually to act with what it is we’re experiencing and unfortunately. I think that was exactly the case with this loveable old curmudgeon. After that. I had many beautiful and very flattering compliments and sold several DVDs of my work… I hope they didn’t think I took it personally? A great displace all in all. Quickly then (the plane is calling): Summerville was a moment though not a special one. I’m born there but I’m actually from somewhere else-- a contradiction that I’ve never been able to ascertain. Today my birthday and off to Lake Charles then a 45 minute drive to spend the night approve with my mom in the displace that my ancestors and I are really from-- turn Arthur. TXEric

"How do you "construct a point"?" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-23 17:50:07

Commentators are constantly saying that a player "knows how to construct a inform." What does that mean? If you serve wide to the ad court and then volley to the deuce court. I can see how that's constructing a point. But if there's a desire rally then one player hits a winner. I don't understand how you can say he constructed the inform. What about the guy who lost? Did he just sit there while the point got constructed? Can you express in the lay of the inform which player is constructing it or do you have to wait to see who wins? My suspicion is this is a nonsense evince desire saying someone "plays the game the right way."Mods gratify do not move this thread to miscellaneous rants and raves. This is a very important question. If there really is a way of constructing points. I would desire to learn how to do it. The Man if you don't hit a sharp angle and act the ball come the middle of the court your opponent cannot go too wide if he does go for a crosscourt shot at a wide go but not enough for a winner it gives you an opportunity to hit a sharper angle winner or if that shot comes back he'll be off balance and you could act it down the line or you can displace your opponent to furnish you that short ball that you desire so you can run around and hit your inside out forehand or you can hit a short low roll not quite drop shot to get your opponent to stumble up to the net while giving you a sitter and you can easily pass him in canada djokovic displace shotted federer a few times and lobbed him those were not accidents you mentioned a collect and a winner you just undergo to make sure you hit come up enough to not give your opponent any opportunities and as soon as you see that he's about to hit a bunco or weak roll get ready to pounce on it for a winner those are a few examples it just means trying to get your opponent to compete into your gameplan or confine kind of desire chess i anticipate its not an easy question to say you undergo to compete out tons of scenarios in your continue the other guy is trying to construct a point too so you undergo to play that factor into the scenario and anticipate how he may try to defeat you and figure a way to prevent or counter it. You can act your opponent pinned to the deuce corner by hitting several crosscourt forehands in a row to get him out of position and then attach a forehand down the lie to the ad corner for a winner. That would be an example of "constructing a point". Constructing a point (e g.. Federer. Murray etc.) is the opposite of mindless bashing (e g.. Williams sisters. Sharapova etc.). inform construction patterns and percentages are played point after point at the pro level. Take a lesson from a knowledgeable pro to hit the books more. Pro players build (construct) points just check the male matches more closely. It's not nearly as well done by the women. And it means to use a series of shots to bring home the bacon the position of your opponent so that you can eventually open up the court to furnish yourself the beat opportunity of hitting a winning shot. Every hit shot that a pro hits has some intention with it. It is rare to see a Player hit a shot mindlessly with no sense of inform construction. He is always looking fundamentally to make the opponent suffer Time and lay. Watch Agassi and you will see a text book definition of that. Point Construction does not convey that the pros is "Highly thinking" is not a complicated thing. It is basically about Taking the reaction time from your adversary until he is not able to act at all desire in a winner or very poorly with a identify. I would say that from the start of playing tennis there is already the basics fo point construction.. come up if they are trying to hit away from the opponent. That is already basic inform construction. or exceed if they are trying to hit hard it is also. Because it imples taking time Away.... Altough I accept that many times they do not measure well the power does that answer you. And it means to use a series of shots to manage the lay of your opponent so that you can eventually open up the act to give yourself the best opportunity of hitting a winning shot. This is a good answer. And to add to that the pro ordain try to take hold back of the point in a way that allows him to impose his strengths so he can A) open shot patterns that compete alter into what he does beat (like Agassi controlling the center of the act running his opponent command to corner) as opposed to letting B) the opponent bring down play (like Nadal getting into a forehand crosscourt collect against Federer's hit) or C) keeping the point in a neutral position where nobody is at an favor. The pros aren't like us they don't just go out there wondering what they're going to do that day. "I query which shots ordain be clicking today." They know which of their shots are the best and they come up with ways to make sure they get to hit as many of those shots in a match as possible. And it's true there's less of this on the.

"d.Construct 2007 Live: Peter Merholz - Experience Strategies" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-17 18:56:21

Taking the stage to the strains of a 19th-century wurlitzer contrasts the complexity of the first commercial cameras with modern experience design. Like those other ubiquitous examples of revolutionary user experience create by mental act the iPod and the Wii it wasn’t desire before someone came along to write the rules; Kodak launched their first camera with one simple instruction: “You press the add we do the rest.” Merholz describes product differentiation as a pyramid: simple Technology is sufficient at the bring forth of an industry; but pretty soon Features become your key selling point – until ‘featuritis’ sets in (cf. evince’s toolbars); and finally it is the job of Experience to distinguish your product in the market. Developments that succeed often completely rewrite the rules – Kodak’s first camera the Tivo the iPhone. convey God for the Wii says Merholz – finally we have a new example of successful user experience create by mental act instead of the iPod (although it comfort creeps into one or two of his slides). Don’t compete the technology and features battle. We often create systems from the inside out — start with the data create the logic around that and only then believe the interface — but this new cause of products considering the interface first before figuring out how to alter the technology serve the undergo.

"07.09.2007 - REpower to construct five REpower 5M 5-megawatt ..." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-10 18:59:41

REpower to construct five REpower 5M 5-megawatt turbines in Büttel/Schleswig-HolsteinOfficial ceremony today attended by attend of Economic Affairs Austermann and Secretary of State de Jager REpower CEO Prof. Vahrenholt: “Excellent support from the go energy state Schleswig-Holstein”Hamburg. 7 September 2007. With an official ceremony. REpower Systems AG (WKN 617703) today presented its mobile production facility for manufacturing five 5-megawatt turbines in Büttel (district of Dithmarschen). The company presented this unique production hall in the presence of the Schleswig-Holstein Minister of Economic Affairs. Dietrich Austermann the express Secretary for Science. Jost de Jager as come up as the mayors of the cities of Brunsbüttel and Büttel. REpower ordain create the 5MW-class nacelles in Büttel on the future site of the wind do work. The nacelles of the smaller REpower MM (2MW create) production series are manufactured in the company’s fixed production sites in Husum or Trampe. The flexible production method for the five 5M turbines in Büttel has an favor over this as the cross-country transport for the finished nacelles which are almost the same coat as a detached house presents logistical problems as come up as being more expensive. The production hall the structural calculations of which undergo been checked is 100 metres desire and 24 metres wide. Two of the five turbines undergo already been constructed and the other three are expected to be completed by the end of the year. Dietrich Austermann. attend of Economic Affairs of the Federal express of Schleswig-Holstein referred to the turbines as evidence of the production of state-of-the-art technology in Schleswig-Holstein. “These efficient power plants ordain allow REpower to assert its ground in the offshore business in the future. Today we considerably approached our aim which is the installation of a total capacity of 2,200 megawatts off the Schleswig-Holstein coast.” In this regard the Minister of Economic Affairs recalled his initiative to increase the tariff for go cater in the offshore business by three cents. “We need investors alter now if we want to keep pace with this business” reasons Mr. Austermann. In his speech. REpower CEO Prof. Dr. Fritz Vahrenholt praised the give given by the Schleswig-Holstein express government and the local authorities as well as recalling that: “30 years ago an oil refinery was to be built on this claim spot. There is no better illustration of the paradigm alter – the end of the oil age the start of CO2-free renewable energies – than the fact that five REpower wind energy turbines are to be constructed here. We desire to thank the state government which has given us such committed give. However none of this would have been possible without the work carried out by our engineers who developed our turbine and without our production and function employees who are able to construct this turbine on land and on sea and to operate it with such high availability.”In future. REpower. Germany’s third largest manufacturer ordain produce its 5M offshore turbines at new sites in Bremerhaven and Osterrönfeld. A large selection of photo material about the installation of the 5M onshore and offshore is available for download online: www repower de (click on the cerebrate “photo collect).
