Significant change of scale (3.5×), illumi-nation conditions, out-of-plane rotation, occlusion, locally anisotropic scale change and 3D translation of the viewpoint are all present in the test prob-lems.

of all points (x ′ , t ′ ) with x ′ ∈ B(x, t, r) and t ′ ∈ [t, t + △t] or t ′ ∈ [t + △t, t], depending on the sign of △t. A ball B(x, t, ǫ −1 r) is called an ǫ-neck, if, after scaling the metric with factor r −2, it is ǫ-close to the standard neck S 2 × I, with the product metric, where S 2 has

Objective We investigated elementary school children’s ability to use a variety of Likert response formats to respond to concrete and abstract items. Methods 111 children, aged 6–13 years, responded to 2 phys-ical tasks that required them to make objectively verifiable judgments, using a 5-point

Goodness-of-fit test statistics are widely used in surveys however little regard is given to the statistical power. This paper investigates the simulated power of a number of five categorical goodness-of-fit test statistics used on a 5-point Likert scale. The test statistics used in this power

This paper has two purposes: first, to check for first-year university students ' ( N=56) pedagogical preferences among (12 activities) using a 5-point Likert scale; and second, to see if the Likert scale results match those of another scale, dubbed the Dockert scale, on the same instrument

on two subscales – self-reconciled and self-reconstructing. Overall, the purpose for the instrument is to describe pain in terminal care groups and the cause for that pain. The LCS test includes 45-items using a 5-point Likert scale responses. Author

with the dynamic dislocation model for point dis-location rise times and rupture times of most earthquakes. For very large earth-quakes M s ~ (1/3) log M o,, ~ log L ~ (1/3) log E s. For very small earthquakes M s ~ log M o, ~ 3 log L ~ log E s. Scaling rules are assumed and justified. This model predicts log E

This study examines how and which direction respondents who participated in 5-point Likert scale surveys change their initial responses when they are given an identical second survey after certain treatments. The research employs three identical questionnaires (first, second and third surveys

and the cause for that pain. The LCS test includes 45-items using a 5-point Likert scale responses. Author
