Development and Validation of Successful Aging Instrument
Objectives: Successful aging is an interdisciplinary concept. Despite the great body of literature on successful aging, few studies have focused on its subjective and multidimensional measurements. Thus, the present study aimed to develop an instrument to measure self-perceived successful aging. Methods: We used a mixed method approach. The successful aging dimensions were explored through an ...
متن کاملAn Integrated Optical Transient Sensor
The implementation of a compact continuous-time optical transient sensor with commercial CMOS technology is presented. In its basic version, this sensor consists of a photodiode, five transistors and a capacitor. The proposed circuit produces several output signals in parallel. These include a sustained, logarithmically compressed measure of the incoming irradiance, half-wave rectified and thre...
متن کاملA cross-validation of the provisional diagnostic instrument (PDI-4)
BACKGROUND The Provisional Diagnostic Instrument (PDI-4) is a brief, adult self-report instrument for 4 common psychiatric diagnoses in primary care patients: major depressive episode (MDE), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and bipolar I disorder based on past or present mania. Our objective was to assess validity of the PDI-4 in a population ...
متن کاملGlobal frequency and distribution of lightning as observed from space by the Optical Transient Detector
[1] The Optical Transient Detector (OTD) is a space-based instrument specifically designed to detect and locate lightning discharges as it orbits the Earth. This instrument is a scientific payload on the MicroLab-1 satellite that was launched into a 70 inclination low Earth orbit in April 1995. Given the orbital trajectory of the satellite, most regions of the Earth are observed by the OTD inst...
متن کاملInvestigating The Reliability and Validation of the Parental Bonding Instrument (PBI) in students
Parental Bonding Instrument (PBI) is a widely used measure for assessing perceived parenting. There are different ideas about whether the PBI is a two-factor or a three-factor rule and recent studies have proposed five different factor structures. The current study aimed to survey of reliability coefficients of PBI models and Anchoridentity of the model fit of PBI in Iranian population. The par...
