New assessment of forearm strength: reliability and validity.

OBJECTIVE The objective was to determine the reliability of a portable forearm strength hydraulic dynamometer with a doorknob handle and assess its validity compared with a Cybex 6000 (Cybex International, Inc., Medway, MA) isometric torque assessment. METHOD Eighteen volunteers (with a total of 30 forearms) participated in this one-session methodological study to determine the intra- and int...

on the comparison of keyword and semantic-context methods of learning new vocabulary meaning

the rationale behind the present study is that particular learning strategies produce more effective results when applied together. the present study tried to investigate the efficiency of the semantic-context strategy alone with a technique called, keyword method. to clarify the point, the current study seeked to find answer to the following question: are the keyword and semantic-context metho...

Metastable legged locomotion: methods to quantify and optimize reliability

Measuring the stability of highly-dynamic bipedal locomotion is a challenging but essential task for more capable human-like walking. By discretizing the walking dynamics, we treat the system as a Markov chain, which lends itself to an easy quantification of failure rates by the expected number of steps before falling. This meaningful and intuitive metric is then used for optimizing and benchma...

Reliability of doming and toe flexion testing to quantify foot muscle strength

Background Quantifying the strength of the intrinsic foot muscles has been a challenge for clinicians and researchers. The reliable measurement of this strength is important in order to assess weakness, which may contribute to a variety of functional issues in the foot and lower leg, including plantar fasciitis and hallux valgus. This study reports 3 novel methods for measuring foot strength - ...

New methods to measure phase transition strength

A recently developed technique to determine the order and strength of phase transitions by extracting the density of partition function zeroes (a continuous function) from finite-size systems (a discrete data set) is generalized to systems for which (i) some or all of the zeroes occur in degenerate sets and/or (ii) they are not confined to a singular line in the complex plane. The technique is ...
