⎯ With the rapid progression of e-learning curriculum, the various needs of content design considerations are increasing. However, little attention was paid to image perception issue related to content design. This study investigated the relationship of field-dependent/field-independent (FD/FI) cognitive style to the perception of color images with respect to colordepth and preference for displ...

We compare the Riemann–Liouville fractional integral (fI) of a function f(z) with the Liouville fI of the same function and show that there are cases in which the asymptotic expansion of the former is obtained from those of the latter and the difference of the two fIs. When this happens, this fact occurs also for the fractional derivative (fD). This method is applied to the derivation of the as...

In general, disabilities are considered a consequence of frailty rather than a cause of frailty, whereas in people with intellectual disabilities (ID), disabilities are often lifelong, which could have consequences for the feasibility and validity of frailty instruments. To better understand frailty in people with ID, we compared two broadly used concepts: the frailty phenotype (FP) and the fra...

PURPOSE To investigate the influence of the Factor H (CFH) Tyr⁴⁰²His polymorphism on the plasma levels of the alternative pathway proteins CFH, C3, Factor B (FB), Factor D (FD), and Factor I (FI) and the inflammatory marker C-reactive protein (CRP) in 119 patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and 152 unrelated control individuals. METHODS Patients with AMD and the control group...

The CellScan apparatus is a laser scanning cytometer enabling repetitive fluorescence intensity (FI) and polarization (FP) measurements in living cells, as a means of monitoring lymphocyte activation. The CellScan may serve as a tool for diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) as well as other autoimmune diseases by monitoring FP changes in peripheral blood...

The spatial and temporal characteristics of precipitation floods during typhoons in Guangdong province were examined by using TRMM TMPA 3B42 data the Dominant River Routing Integrated with VIC Environment (DRIVE) model outputs for period 1998–2019. evaluations based on gauge-measured model-simulated streamflow show reliability DRIVE model. typhoon tracks are divided into five categories those t...

STUDY OBJECTIVE In September 2000, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the use of Flovent Diskus (FD) [fluticasone propionate; GlaxoSmithKline; Research Triangle Park, NC], which is an orally inhaled, dry-powder corticosteroid, for the maintenance treatment of asthma at dosages of 50 to 1,000 microg administered twice-daily. Once-daily dosage regimens did not receive approval. Th...

The purpose of this article was to examine the metacognitive awareness reading methods used by field-dependent (FD) and field-independent (FI) Turkish EFL university students learning English as a foreign language. 270 from Istanbul’s (Cerrahpasa) University were picked for purpose. To begin, Group Embedded Figure Test assign individuals one two groups, FD or FI. Following that, we assessed par...

Although Web technology is widely used in today’s classrooms, educationists are still unsure of its capability to generate meaningful learning. As the numbers of web-based learning (WBL) materials keep increasing tremendously, more students will rely on such resources in their learning process. WBL is always seen as a platform to deliver information, and as such, most of its learning materials ...

IN AN experiment performed a few years ago [l], which involved periodic drawings of venous blood from an indwelling cournand needle, it was observed that it was more difficult to withdraw venous blood (from a superficial arm vein) in Field Dependent (FD) than Field Independent (FI) Ss. A variety of other investigations have suggested that these two groups differ in the degree to which they are ...
