Motivation through the Design of Work: Test of a Theory. Organizational Behavior and Human Performance,
, 1976
"... A model is proposed that specifies the conditions under which individuals will become internally motivated to perform effectively on their jobs. The model focuses on the interaction among three classes of variables: (a) the psychological states of employees that must be present for internally motiv ..."

was unrelated to the Index. The investigators concluded that reactions to jobs high on the RTA Index were moderated by differences in the cultural backgrounds of employees. Subsequent research by A study by Results of the study generally supported the hypothesis that employees who work on jobs high
Ego depletion: is the active self a limited resource
- Journal of Personality and Social Psychology
, 1998
"... Choice, active response, self-regulation, and other volition may all draw on a common inner resource. In Experiment 1, people who forced themselves to eat radishes instead of tempting chocolates subsequently quit faster on unsolvable puzzles than people who had not had to exert self-control over eat ..."

eating. In Experiment 2, making a meaningful personal choice to perform attitude-relevant behavior caused a similar decrement in persistence. In Experiment 3, suppressing emotion led to a subsequent drop in performance of solvable anagrams. In Experiment 4, an initial task requiring high self
Toward a Conceptual Framework for Mixed-Method Evaluation Designs. Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis
, 1989
"... In recent years evaluators of educational and social programs have expanded their method-ological repertoire with designs that include the use of both qualitative and quantitative methods. Such practice, however, needs to be grounded in a theory that can meaningfully guide the design and implementat ..."

Making subsequence time series clustering meaningful
- In Proceedings of the 5th IEEE International Conference on Data Mining
, 2005
"... Recently, the startling claim was made that sequential time series clustering is meaningless. This has important consequences for a significant amount of work in the literature, since such a claim invalidates this work’s contribution. In this paper, we show that sequential time series clustering is ..."

between subsequence vectors, which give rise naturally to an alternative distance measure to Euclidean distance in the subsequence vector space. We show that, using this alternative distance measure, sequential time series clustering can indeed be meaningful. 1
Clustering of Time Series Subsequences is Meaningless: Implications for Past and Future Research
- In Proc. of the 3rd IEEE International Conference on Data Mining
, 2003
"... Time series data is perhaps the most frequently encountered type of data examined by the data mining community. Clustering is perhaps the most frequently used data mining algorithm, being useful in it’s own right as an exploratory technique, and also as a subroutine in more complex data mining algor ..."

Are students ready for meaningful use?
"... Background: The meaningful use (MU) of electronic medical records (EMRs) is being implemented in three stages. Key objectives of stage one include electronic analysis of data entered into structured fields, using decision-support tools (e.g., checking drugdrug interactions [DDI]) and electronic info ..."

Finding Edges by a Contrario Detection of Periodic Subsequences
"... Abstract. A new method to detect salient pieces of boundaries in an image is presented. After detecting perceptually meaningful level lines, periodic binary sequences are built by labeling each point in close curves as salient or non-salient. We propose a general and automatic method to detect meani ..."

Meaningful Sequential Time Series Analysis
"... Abstract—An automated land cover change detection method is proposed that uses coarse spatial resolution hyper-temporal earth observation satellite time series data. The study compared three different unsupervised clustering approaches that operate on short term Fourier transform coefficients comput ..."

computed over subsequences of 8-day composite MODerate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) surface reflectance data that were extracted with a temporal sliding window. The method uses a feature extraction process that creates meaningful sequential time series that can be analyzed and processed
Challenges with Verification, Repeatability, and Meaningful Comparisons in Genetic Programming
- GENETIC PROGRAMMING 1997: PROCEEDINGS OF THE SECOND ANNUAL CONFERENCE
, 1997
"... This paper discusses some of the difficulties involved in trying to make meaningful comparisons of results in genetic programming. To illustrate some of these difficulties, two studies involving the wall-following robot are featured. The paper subsequently offers several recommendations to ad ..."

Attempting to Answer a Meaningful Question Enhances Subsequent Learning Even When Feedback Is Delayed
"... Attempting to retrieve information from memory enhances subsequent learning even if the retrieval attempt is unsuccessful. Recent evidence suggests that this benefit materializes only if subsequent study occurs immediately after the retrieval attempt. Previous studies have prompted retrieval using a ..."

Even in Experiment 3, when subsequent study was delayed
