Making Performance Real: Six Paths to Training That Matters

Making Inferences From Text: It's Vocabulary That Matters.

PURPOSE Many children with communication disorders have reading comprehension difficulties, and in order to target interventions effectively it is important to identify which specific components of comprehension are especially challenging. The current study explored the relationship between text-inferencing skill, autistic symptomatology, and language phenotype. METHOD Typically developing ch...

Parallel paths to improve heart failure outcomes: evidence matters.

Gaps and disparities in delivery of heart failure education by nurses and performance in accomplishing self-care behaviors by patients with advanced heart failure may be factors in clinical decompensation and unplanned consumption of health care. Is nurse-led education effectively delivered before hospital discharge? Nurse leaders must understand the strength of nurses' knowledge base related t...

Casimir Forces due to Matters in Compactified Six Dimensions

We calculate the Casimir energies due to matters with various boundary conditions along two compact directions in six-dimensional T 2 compactification. We discuss whether the Casimir forces are attractive or repulsive forces. On the theories with extra dimensions, the Casimir energy plays a crucial role in the mechanism for stabilizing the size of extra dimensions. Finally we argue a procedure ...

Real and Simulated Altitude Training and Performance

An Epistemology That Matters

The history of epistemology, however, can in large part be read as a history of trying to establish that there is a necessary connection between the answers to these two questions. A traditional view is that justified beliefs are ones arrived at using an appropriate methodology and that use of an appropriate methodology produces knowledge. Descartes, for example, argued that one is justified in...
