The performance on a learning-set task of 20 normal and 20 brain-damaged 5s of comparable verbal intelligence was contrasted. An analysis of variance showed that the normals were superior to the brain damaged in improvement over repeated trials of the same problem and over blocks of similar problems. The normals made fewer errors of perseverative type, repetitive type, and made fewer incorrect ...

Fatigue is a serious issue for the rail industry, increasing inefficiency and accident risk. The performance of 20 train drivers in a rail simulator was investigated at low, moderate and high fatigue levels. Psychomotor vigilance (PVT), self-rated performance and subjective alertness were also assessed. Alertness, PVT reaction times, extreme speed violations (>25% above the limit) and penalty b...

OBJECTIVE This study compares the performance in a continuous performance test within a virtual reality classroom (CPT-VRC) between medicated children with ADHD, unmedicated children with ADHD, and healthy children. METHOD N = 94 children with ADHD (n = 26 of them received methylphenidate and n = 68 were unmedicated) and n = 34 healthy children performed the CPT-VRC. Omission errors, reaction...

One result of the increasing sophistication and complexity of MIS theory and research is the number of studies hypothesizing and testing for V. Sambamurthy was the accepting senior editor for this paper. moderation effects. A review of the MIS and broader management literatures suggests researchers investigating moderated relationships often commit one or more errors falling into three broad ca...

This paper proposes a simulation model for analysing error propagation in buffer spatial analysis in a vector-based geographical information system. Since spatial data stored in GIS is not error-free, errors propagate and accumulate over GIS operations. Therefore, there is necessary to study error propagation in the process. The proposed model in this study measures the propagated error in buff...

The ability to detect and correct action errors is paramount to safe and efficient goal-directed behaviors. Existing work on the neural underpinnings of error processing and post-error behavioral adaptations has led to the development of several mechanistic theories of error processing. These theories can be roughly grouped into adaptive and maladaptive theories. While adaptive theories propose...

accounting earning represents the positive performance of companies during theirpertinent financial periods, thus it is assumed that accounting earning will benoted by investors, which could contribute to the optimum allocation of resourcesto successful companies. it can also play a major role in the economic growth anddevelopment of a society. this research focuses in the relationship between ...

purpose : to determine add power (ap) and amplitude of accommodation (aa) in a sample of iranian population and its relationship with refractive errors methods : this cross-sectional study enrolled people of 35-70 years old by simple random sampling. exclusion criteria were myopia or hyperopia over 6 diopter (d) and astigmatism more than 0.75 d. those with a history of eye disorders and taking ...
