Consistency amongst pairs: How consistent are child co‐witnesses with one another?

How do jurors argue with one another?

We asked jurors awaiting trial assignment to listen to a recorded synopsis of an authentic criminal trial and to make a choice among 4 verdict possibilities. Each participant juror then deliberated with another juror whose verdict choice differed, as a microcosm of a full jury’s deliberation. Analysis of the transcripts of these deliberations revealed both characteristics general to the sample ...

How consistent are class size effects?

Thus far researchers have focused on computing average differences in student achievement between smaller and larger classes. In this study, the author focus on the distribution of the small class effects at the school level and compute the inconsistency of the small class effects across schools. The author use data from Project STAR to estimate small class effects for each school on mathematic...

How Consistent are Cognitive Impairments in Patients with Cerebellar Disorders?

Many human lesion und functional brain imaging studies suggest involvement of the cerebellum in cognitive functions. However, negative and inconsistent findings are rarely discussed. It is still an open question as to which areas of cognition the cerebellum contributes, as well as how, and to what extent. Frequently cited earlier findings in one area of cognition have been challenged in more re...

Test of the Hypothesis That One Group of Dependences is Consistent with Another Group of Dependences

In this paper we describe the basic algorithmic characteristics of the test of the hypothesis that one group of dependences is consistent with another group of dependences for a case when the error disturbances of this data have normal distribution. Unpaired and paired versions are presented. The aim of our work was to find effective algorithms for biomarker identification in mass (MS) or Raman...
