Intertrial reinforcement: A test of several hypotheses

No General Percid Dominance under Mesotrophic Lake Conditions: A Test of Several Hypotheses

Several hypotheses concerning the dominance of percids under mesotrophic lake conditions were tested in five lakes of intermediate trophic state, situated in northeastern Germany. In contrast to prediction, the fish communities in four lakes were dominated by cyprinids (roach, Rutilus rutilus and bream, Abramis brama), while percids (Eurasian perch, Percafluviatilis) dominated in one lake only....

Observable Changes of Hypotheses under Positive Reinforcement.

In mathematical models of concept learning it has consistently been assumed that positive reinforcement cannot lead to a change of the hypothesis determining the overt response. When hypotheses are experimentally identified and recorded along with positive and negative reinforcements of stimulus-response pairs, it can be shown that hypotheses may change after a positive reinforcement. Positive ...

Sequential Test of Fuzzy Hypotheses

In testing statistical hypotheses, as in other statistical problems, we may be confronted with fuzzy concepts. This paper deals with the problem of testing hypotheses, when the hypotheses are fuzzy and the data are crisp. We first give new definitions for notion of mass (density) probability function with fuzzy parameter, probability of type I and type II errors and then state and prove the seq...

construction and validation of a computerized adaptive translation test (a receptive based study)

آزمون انطباقی رایانه ای (cat) روشی نوین برای سنجش سطح علمی دانش آموزان می باشد. در حقیقت آزمون های رایانه ای با سرعت بالایی به سمت و سوی جایگزین عملی برای آزمون های کاغذی می روند (کینگزبری، هاوسر، 1993). مقاله حاضر به دنبال آزمون انطباقی رایانه ای برای ترجمه می باشد. بدین منظور دو پرسشنامه مشتمل بر 55 تست ترجمه میان 102 آزمودنی و 10 مدرس زبان انگلیسی پخش گردید. پرسشنامه اول میان 102 دانشجوی س...
