Subjective Probability Task Validity and Reliability

The reliability and validity of the self-ordered pointing task.

The reliability and validity of the abstract design version of the self-ordered pointing task (SOPT; Petrides, M., & Milner, B. (1982). Deficits on subject-ordered tasks after frontal- and temporal-lobe lesions in man. Neuropsychologia, 20, 249-262) was examined in healthy college students (N=170; M age=21.6; S.D.=2.8). The test-retest reliability (N=93; M interval=42.7 days) for SOPT total err...

Adaptation of the Syllable Repetition Task (SRT) and Determining its Validity and Reliability in 4-6 Persian Speaking Children

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties of the SRT that was performed in 4-6 year-old Persian-speaking children. The SRT is a nonword repetition task that assesses phonological working memory and was designed by Shriberg in 2008. Methods: The present research was a non-experimental study with a methodological design. The content validity of the task was evaluated...

Subjective Probability ∗

We provide an overview of the idea of subjective probability and its foundational role in decision making and modern management sciences. We highlight the role of Savage’s theory as an organizing methodology to guide and constrain our modeling of choice under uncertainty, rather than a substantive statement subject to refutations by experimental or psychological evidence. ∗Prepared for The Wile...

Designing and Evaluation of Reliability and Validity of Visual Cue-Induced Craving Assessment Task for Methamphetamine Smokers

A B S T R A C TIntroduction: Craving to methamphetamine is a significant health concern and exposure to methamphetamine cues in laboratory can induce craving. In this study, a task designing procedure for evaluating methamphetamine cue-induced craving in laboratory conditions is examined. Methods: First a series of visual cues which could induce craving was identified by 5 discussion sessions b...
