The present paper, which is intended for a diverse audience of evaluation researchers, applied social scientists and research funders, provides a broad overview of the conceptual and statistical issues involved in using multi-site randomized trials to learn about and from variation in program effects across individuals, across policy-relevant and theoretically-relevant subgroups of individuals ...

We develop a dynamical coupled-channels (DCC) model for neutrino-nucleon reactions in the resonance region, by extending the DCC model that we have previously developed through an analysis of πN, γN → πN, ηN, KΛ, KΣ reaction data for W ≤ 2.1 GeV. We analyze electron-induced reaction data for both proton and neutron targets to determine the vector current form factors up to Q2 ≤ 3.0 (GeV/c)2. Ax...

PURPOSE This study explored the use of assessment tasks to examine underlying phonological representations in preschool children with speech impairment. The study also investigated the association between performance on phonological representation tasks and phonological awareness development. METHOD The performance of 9 children (aged 3;09 [years; months] to 5;03) with moderate or severe spee...

In different tasks involving action perception, performance has been found to be facilitated when the presented stimuli were produced by the participants themselves rather than by another participant. These results suggest that the same mental representations are accessed during both production and perception. However, with regard to spoken word perception, evidence also suggests that listeners...

Surfactants are widely used in many areas of our life. However, synthetic surfactants have a serious negative impact on the environment. They do not decompose well and can accumulate ecosystems. Microbial biosurfactants be an alternative to surfactants. characterized by diverse structure, stable at critical temperatures, pH obtained from various renewable raw materials. Goal: analysis generaliz...

The present investigation examines palatal production as well as the relation of phonology and phonetics in Greek. In accordance with one production experiment, the results indicate: (1) palatal productions that surface from one underlying segment are significantly longer than palatal productions that surface from two underlying segments, (2) palatal productions are voice assimilated with the p...
