This study investigated mind-wandering (MW) in children during a laboratory task, and explored the influence of children's attitudes towards MW on the accuracy of their subjective reports. Children's MW experiences were probed during the adapted Sustained-Attention-to-Response-Task (SART), and their attitudes was measured by a questionnaire, according to which children were divided into positiv...

ObjectiveTo examine whether Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology (SART) member in vitro fertilization (IVF) centers adhere to the Society’s new advertising policy, updated January 2018, and evaluate other services advertised by region, insurance mandate university affiliation status. Historically, a large percentage of IVF clinics have not adhered SART guidelines clinic website had vari...

Based on the executive-attention theory of working memory capacity (WMC; e.g., Kane, Conway, Hambrick, & Engle, 2007) we tested the relations among WMC, mind wandering, and goal neglect in a sustained-attention-to-response task (SART; a go/no-go task). In three SART versions, making conceptual versus perceptual processing demands, subjects periodically indicated their thought content when probe...

Subjective workload and situation awareness measures, such as the NASA task load index (TLX) situational rating technique (SART), are frequently used in human–system evaluation. However, interpretation of these ratings is debated. In this study, empirical evidence for measures' theoretical assumptions was investigated by comparing operators' collected immediately after performing a scenario acq...

<span lang="EN-US">Electrical impedance tomography (EIT), as a non-ionizing method, has been widely used in various fields of application, such engineering and medical fields. This study applies an iterative process to reconstruct EIT images using the simultaneous algebraic reconstruction technique (SART) algorithm combined with K-means clustering. The started defining finite element meth...
