One of the enduring issues being evaluated during the SPICE trials is the reliability of assessments. One type of reliability is the extent to which different assessors produce similar ratings when assessing the same organization and presented with the same evidence. In this paper we report on a study that was conducted to start answering this question. Data was collected from an assessment of ...

This study is based upon the premise that overall team performance is the sum of the team’s performance in several individual team processes. The purpose of this study was to develop a tool to measure performance in each of these individual team processes. This study begins the measurement development cycle by developing a tool that uses direct observation to collect data on team processes. The...

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to examine the intra- and inter-rater reliabilities of the Short Form Berg Balance Scale in institutionalized elderly people. [Subjects and Methods] A total of 30 elderly people in a nursing facility in Y city, South Korea, participated in this study. Two examiners administered the Short Form Berg Balance Scale to one subject to investigate inter-rater re...

Wireless LAN Roaming enables users to be authenticated and authorized for access networks at various places they visit. The largest roaming federation today is probably eduroam developed research education institutions. There have been some projects developing federations public wireless services as well. Since the introduction of Next Generation Hotspot concept, need interconnect these has eme...

A bstract We suggest a minimal model for GeV-scale Majorana Dark Matter (DM) coupled to the standard lepton sector via charged scalar singlet. show that there is an anti-correlation between spin-independent DM-Nucleus scattering cross section ( σ SI ) and DM relic density parameters values allowed by various theoretical experimental constraints. Moreover, we find even when couplings are of orde...
