Simple tools for understanding risks: From innumeracy to insight

by Gerd Gigerenzer - British Medical Journal , 2003
"... Bad presentation of medical statistics such as the risks associated with a particular intervention can lead to patients making poor decisions on treatment. Particularly confusing are single event probabilities, conditional probabilities (such as sensitivity and specificity), and relative risks. How ..."

Large-scale molecular dynamics simulations of glancing angle deposition

by Bradley C Hubartt , Xuejing Liu , Jacques G Amar
"... While a variety of methods have been developed to carry out atomistic simulations of thinfilm growth at small deposition angles with respect to the substrate normal, due to the complex morphology as well as the existence of multiple scattering of depositing atoms by the growing thin-film, realistic ..."
Abstract - Add to MetaCart
-film, realistically modeling the deposition process for large deposition angles can be quite challenging. Accordingly, we have developed a computationally efficient method based on the use of a single graphical processing unit (GPU) to carry out molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of the deposition and growth of thin

1CLEP ® Spanish Language: At a Glance Description of the Examination

by unknown authors
"... The CLEP ® Spanish Language examination is designed to measure knowledge and ability equivalent to that of students who have completed two to four semesters of college Spanish language study. The exam focuses on skills typically achieved from the end of the first year through the second year of coll ..."
Abstract - Add to MetaCart
of college study; material taught during both years is incorporated into a single exam. The examination contains approximately 120 questions to be answered in approximately 90 minutes. Some of these are pretest questions that will not be scored. There are three separately timed sections. The three sections

Out-of-School Factors Affecting Academic Achievement At a Glance

by Dale Romanik , 2010
"... This Information Capsule is the third in a series of papers addressing factors contributing to low academic achievement. The two previous papers addressed issues relevant to class size reduction and teacher quality/preparation. The premise of this Information Capsule is that there is no single smoki ..."

New Glance at the Experimental Data for Low Lying Collective Excited States.

by Vladimir P. Garistov , 2008
"... Recently the classification of low-lying excited 0 + states in even even deformed nuclei has been done. The available experimental data were represented as the energies parabolic distributed by number of monopole excitations. With other words each 0 + state now is determined as the collective state ..."

To specify the distribution function let us consider the monopole part of collective Hamiltonian for single level approach written in terms of boson creation and annihilation operators R+, R − and R0 H = αR j +R j − + βR j 0Rj βΩj 0 + 1 2 Rj 0, (1) constructed

CDC’s Condom Fact Sheets: A Comparison Issues at a Glance

by unknown authors
"... In 1999, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) published a fact sheet with messages to encourage sexually active people to use condoms to prevent HIV and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs). In 2001, under pressure from anti-condom activists within the administration, CDC rem ..."

Determinants of Primary Nonadherence in Asthma- Controller and Dyslipidemia Pharmacotherapy At a Glance

by PhD; Joshua N Liberman , MHSA, MBA; David S Hutchins , MD, MBA; Richard G Popiel , PharmD Mihir H Patel , MS, PharmD; Saira A Jan , MD, MJ Jan E Berger
"... ABSTRACT Objective: To describe factors associated with failure to fill initial prescriptions for asthma-controller and dyslipidemia medications. Study Design: Retrospective cohort analysis. Methods: A total of 23,176 prescriptions were written by 507 providers between January 1, 2005, and October ..."
Abstract - Add to MetaCart
computer prescription order entry systems exist. These studies routinely report adherence rates across multiple pharmacotherapies, represent the experience of a single pharmacy, enroll only select patient populations, or report the experience of a non-US patient population. As a result, estimates

Eye movements and scene perception: Memory for things observed

by David E. Irwin, Gregory J. Zelinsky - Perception & Psychophysics , 2002
"... In this study, we examined the characteristics of on-line scene representations, using a partial-report procedure. Subjects inspected a simple scene containing seven objects for 1, 3, 5, 9, or 15 fixations; shortly after scene offset, a marker cued one scene location for report. Consistent with prev ..."

representation appeared to be limited to about five items. Implications for recent theories of scene representation are discussed. Consider walking into a room that you have never been in before. The room contains more information than you can perceive in a single glance, so you direct your eyes, via rapid

Within subjective poverty, multidimensional poverty and food security: a glance at the living conditions of households and children in Colombia Within the subjective poverty, the multidimensional poverty and food security: a glance at living conditions of

by Luz Andrea Piñeros , Andrés Clavijo
"... Abstract This paper studies the relationship between subjective poverty, multidimensional poverty and food security of Colombian households. The aim is to see how far our measure of subjective poverty correlates with the different components that are part of the multidimensional poverty measurement ..."
Abstract - Add to MetaCart
certain basic goods and services that are measured by means of the Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) and food security. Furthermore, the results suggest that there is no statistical evidence that support that the size of the family or single-parent households increase the probability that the household

Eye Glance and Head Turn Correspondence during Secondary Task Performance in Simulator Driving

by Walter J. Talamonti, Huang Louis, Tijerina Dev Kochhar
"... Driver eye glance behavior is a useful input to estimate driver visual attention to the road scene. However, eye tracking in an automobile is currently both expensive and prone to various types of degradation. Because head rotation provides a larger target for sensing than eyeball rotation, head pos ..."
Abstract - Add to MetaCart
pose monitoring may sometimes serve as a surrogate for driver eye glances. To investigate the correspondence between eye gaze and head pose while driving on a simulated rural highway, participants were asked to take 1, 2 or 4 glances to read aloud single capital letters presented on a scrolling LED
