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 ..."

Short-Term Retention of Individual Verbal Items
- Journal of Experimental Psychology
, 1959
"... It is apparent that the acquisition of verbal habits depends on the effects of a given occasion being carried over into later repetitions of the situation. Nevertheless, textbooks separate acquisition and retention into distinct categories. The limitation of discussions of retention to long-term cha ..."

-term characteristics is necessary in large part by the scarcity of data on the course of retention over intervals of the order of magnitude of the time elapsing between successive repetitions in an acquisition study. The presence of a retentive function within the acquisition process was postulated by Hull (1940
Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy: new approaches to outcome measurement in rehabilitation
"... Abstract--A new family of rehabilitation techniques, termed Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy or CI Therapy, has been developed that controlled experiments have shown is effective in producing large improvements in limb use in the real-world environment after cerebrovascular accident (CVA). The si ..."

). The signature therapy involves constraining movements of the less-affected arm with a sling for 90 % of waking hours for 2 weeks, while intensively training use of the more-affected arm. The common therapeutic factor in all CI Therapy techniques would appear to be inducing concentrated, repetitive practice
Reducing Repetitions
"... Abstract. For a given word w, all the square-free words that can be reached by suc-cessive application of rewriting rules uu → u constitute w’s duplication root. One word can have several such roots. We provide upper and lower bounds on the maximal num-ber of duplication roots of words of length n t ..."

Parallel Repetition of Entangled Games ∗
"... We consider one-round games between a classical verifier and two provers. One of the main questions in this area is the parallel repetition question: Is there a way to decrease the maximum winning probability of a game without increasing the number of rounds or the number of provers? Classically, th ..."

that seem inherently limited. Here we show for the first time that the maximum success probability of entangled games can be reduced through parallel repetition, provided it was not initially 1. Our proof is inspired by a seminal result of Feige and Kilian in the context of classical two-prover one
A Statistical Approach to Anaphora Resolution
- In Proceedings of the Sixth Workshop on Very Large Corpora
, 1998
"... This paper presents an algorithm for identifying pronominal anaphora and two experiments based upon this algorithm. We incorporate multiple anaphora resolution factors into a statistical framework -- specifically the distance between the pronoun and the proposed antecedent, gender/number/animaticity ..."

/number/animaticity of the proposed antecedent, governing head information and noun phrase repetition. We combine them into a single probability that enables hs to identify the referent. Our first experiment shows the relative contribution of each source Of information and demonstrates a success rate of 82.9% for all sources
Computer Perception of Repetitive Textures
, 1988
"... This dissertation presents research in computer analysis of two dimensional regular repetitive textures in real-world images. Previous efforts in this field have assumed simple grid-like repetitive structure. In contrast, we assume only locally simple repetitive structure. This local model of repeti ..."

of repetition leads to an algorithm that is able to analyse severely distorted repetitive textures, which occur in real-world scenes. We demonstrate the success of this algorithm on a variety of images. An essential part of describing repetitive textures is extracting the frequency of repetition. However
Grade repetition: Therapy of choice
- Journal of Learning Disabilities
, 1977
"... Many factors are involved in producing a child with learning difficulties. These factors and their clusters are considered in this paper with regard to their effect on the ability to learn. Finally, some recommendations for prevention and rehabilitation are offered. “He was n o problem until he star ..."

With regard to the school’s fulfillment o r frustration of a child’s basic needs of recognition and a sense of success, there is a built-in discrimina-tory process- “The rich get richer and the poor get poorer. ” In the classroom, the rich are Fate’s Favored
Live Repetition Counting
"... The task of counting the number of repetitions of ap-proximately the same action in an input video sequence is addressed. The proposed method runs online and not on the complete pre-captured video. It analyzes sequen-tially blocks of 20 non-consecutive frames. The cycle length within each block is e ..."

High Repetition Rate Lasers
"... Abstract-A computer model for a high repetition rate copper vapor laser is described. Equations for the discharge pulse, laser pulse, and interpulse afterglow period are simultaneously integrated over many discharge cycles until a consistent solution is obtained. In this way, consistent initial cond ..."
