What Are We Doing When We Assess Programming?

Considerable research has been devoted in recent decades to identifying optimal pedagogical strategies for teaching computer programming. Often the result of these efforts has been to conclude that we have made little progress, as our students consistently perform poorly on the assessments we apply to measure teaching efficacy. In this paper, we suggest that a significant contributor to this po...

What are we doing when we translate from quantitative models?

Although quantitative analysis (in which behavior principles are defined in terms of equations) has become common in basic behavior analysis, translational efforts often examine everyday events through the lens of narrative versions of laboratory-derived principles. This approach to translation, although useful, is incomplete because equations may convey concepts that are difficult to capture i...

Neonatal pressure support ventilation: are we doing what we think we are doing?

Assisted modes of mechanical ventilation, including synchronous intermittent mandatory ventilation, pressure support ventilation (PSV), continuous mandatory ventilation, neurally adjusted ventilatory assist, and volume guarantee ventilation, are widely used in neonates, infants, and small children to achieve improved short-term and long-term outcomes.1-3 Specifically, evidence is accumulating t...
