Classroom Attendance Scale (CAS) is prepared with 14 items. Prepared CAS consists of items likert type. Sample the study 318 college students who at education faculty science and primary programs along work engineering faculty. Principal axis factoring orthogonal rotation (varimax) used for exploratory factor analysis. Factor eigenvalues are obtained corrected-item total correlations were analy...

This study examined lay theories regarding gender identity disorder (GID). Pilot interviews were completed with participants (n = 10) regarding their views on possible causes and treatments of GID. Participants (mainly young British people and students; n = 124) then completed a questionnaire that was based on the interviews and a review of the salient literature on lay theories. As hypothesize...

In ergonomics, lifting tasks can be categorized according to their risk level of suffering work-related low back disorders (WRLBD). The aim of this study was to investigate whether trunk muscles form synergies that stabilize the time profile of selected performance variables that have been used previously to characterize the risk level for developing WRLBD. At the neuromuscular level, the spati...

A multinational collaborative team led by the U.S. Pharmacopeial Convention is currently investigating the potential of near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy for nontargeted detection of adulterants in skim and nonfat dry milk powder. The development of a compendial method is challenged by the range of authentic or nonadulterated milk powders available worldwide. This paper investigates the sources ...

ERP topographies for 30 scalp electrodes were examined in 26 healthy right-handed volunteers during oddball tasks (20% targets) using binaurally presented consonant-vowel syllables or complex tones. Response hand was counterbalanced across participants. Both window averages and a principal components analysis (PCA) with Varimax rotation revealed task-related (tonal/phonetic) hemispheric asymmet...
