Correcting for guessing increases validity in multiple-choice examinations in an oral and maxillofacial pathology course.
A standard correction for random guessing on multiple-choice examinations was examined retrospectively in an oral and maxillofacial pathology course for second-year dental students. The correction was a weighting formula for points awarded for correct answers, incorrect answers, and unanswered questions such that the expected value of the increase in test score due to guessing was zero. We comp...
متن کاملCorrecting the “self-correcting” mythos of science
In standard characterizations, science is self-correcting. Scientists examine each other’s work skeptically, try to replicate important discoveries, and thereby expose latent errors. Thus, while science is tentative, it also seems to have a system for correcting whatever mistakes arise. It powerfully explains and justifies the authority of science. Self-correction thus often serves emblematical...
متن کاملCorrecting Contradictions
This paper describes a manual investigation of the contradiction asymmetries of the SICK corpus, which is the intended testing set for a new system for natural language inference. Any system providing conceptual semantics for sentences, so that entailment-contradiction-neutrality relations between sentences can be identified, needs a baseline test set. The investigation of this test set, a part...
متن کاملCodes Correcting Two Deletions
In this work, we investigate the problem of constructing codes capable of correcting two deletions. In particular, we construct a code that requires redundancy approximately 8 log2 n+O(log2 log2 n) bits of redundancy, where n denotes the length of the code. To the best of the author’s knowledge, this represents the best known construction in that it requires the lowest number of redundant bits ...
متن کاملCorrecting the scientific record.
This month we are publishing a retraction of a paper by Won et al. entitled “Small molecule–based reversible reprogramming of cellular lifespan.” The Letter, which appeared in our July 2006 issue (Nat. Chem. Biol. 2, 369–374, 2006), described the discovery by high-throughput screening of CGK733, a small molecule that was reported to modulate the ‘senescence clock’ in human cells. In the paper, ...
