In this study, it was aimed to examine the measurement invariance of State Test Anxiety Scale and its sub-dimensions developed by Şahin (2019) in terms different variables. For purpose, data were collected from a total 956 university students studying faculties. The scale examined multi-group confirmatory factor analysis gender, faculty socioeconomic level model established for 22 items three c...

Scintillation of compact radio sources results from the interference between images caused by multipath propagation, and probes intervening scattering plasma velocities emitting source screen. In FRB20201124A, a repeating fast burst (FRB) which entered period extreme activity, we obtained many detections in observations at upgraded Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (uGMRT) Effelsberg 100\,m Teles...

Abstract This work aims to develop a scale measure the citizenship practices of individuals in Brazilian context. Citizenship is popular concept, but it difficult and operationalize due its complex multidimensional nature. It one effects desired by society, social organizations, more participatory management. Thus, development enables deeper understanding this construct, supporting public priva...

Measurement in science has a long tradition as described by Lemmerich /LEMM88/. While the measurement of length the meter was defined in 1889 /LEMM88/, p.87, the measurement of temperature was more complicated. The graduation of the distance of the fixpoints was introduced by Fahrenheit in 1714 and by Celsius in 1742. Celsius devided the scale of 100 degrees and 0 degrees in hundred equal secto...

the purpose of this article is the measurement of technical efficiency and returns to scale using data envelopment (dea) approach. in this study, we have measured efficiency quantity and economies of scale for state owned insurance and private companies for 1384-1385 periods. the results reveal that in the dea with the assumption of variable returns to scale, iran, tosee and razi companies have...

This paper presents an overview of some measurement concepts across both COSMIC-FFP, an ISO standard (ISO/IEC 19761) for functional size measurement and Functional Complexity (FC), an entropy-based measure. It investigates in particular three metrological properties (scale, unit and scale type) in both of these measurement methods.

Background: After all efforts made to introduce a valid and reliable tool for measuring the health of patients, such as MS sufferers, the concept of “participation and autonomy”, which might be affected by the disease, has been introduced. An efficient health measurement should consider all different aspects of a patient’s life. This research was conducted aimed at introducing a new aspect of t...

BACKGROUND Nutrition is one of the major determinants of successful aging. The Satisfaction with Food-related Life (SWFL) scale measures a person's overall assessment regarding their food and eating habits. The SWFL scale has been used in older adult samples across different countries in Europe, Asia and America, however, there are no studies that have evaluated the cross-cultural measurement i...
