OBJECTIVE To report reading center reproducibility during grading of Stratus optical coherence tomography (OCT) (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Dublin, CA) images obtained during the Comparison of Age-Related Macular Degeneration Treatments Trials (CATT). DESIGN Prospective, clinical trial. PARTICIPANTS Independent reading teams reevaluated 270 OCT scans randomly sampled from the first 2 years of CATT...

in this paper, we consider locally graded groups in which every non-permutable subgroup is soluble of bounded derived length.

this study investigated the effect of reciprocal teaching (rt) on efl learners’ reading comprehension. fifty intermediate learners participated in the study and were sampled as the experimental (n = 25) and control groups (n = 25). participants were male and ranged in age from 15 to 16. the reading section of key english test (ket, 2010) was used as the pretest to assess the participants’ entry...

In this paper we study graded Bourbaki ideals. It is a well-known fact that for torsionfree modules over Noetherian normal domains, sequences exist. We give criteria in terms of certain attached matrices homomorphism to induce sequence. Special attention given sequences. the second part paper, apply these results Koszul cycles residue class field and determine particular ideals explicitly. also...

the present study attempted to introduce shared reading as one of the most effective techniques in cultivating the learners’ reading and writing abilities. to this end, 50 homogenous students were assigned to the control and experimental groups following the administration of a standardized english proficiency test. thenceforth, based on writing and reading pretest scores of the learners on a g...

this study seeks to examine how teachers’ educational background (those who have educated in tefl in comparison to those who have educated in literature) may influence their beliefs and attitudes on language learning, teaching and the teaching methods they apply in their classes. on a general basis, depending on teachers’ opinion, learning process might be seen as behavioristic, inductive, inte...

this study was an attempt to investigate whether teaching critical reading strategies had any significant effect on intermediate efl learners’ vocabulary retention. to fulfill the purpose of this study, 72 male and female students within the age range of 17 to 32 years studying at farzan and farzanegan language schools in tehran at intermediate level were selected from a total number of 114 par...

Graded ditopological texture spaces have been presented and discussed in categorical aspects by Lawrence M. Brown and Alexander {v S}ostak in cite{BS}. In this paper, the authors generalize the structure of diuniformity in ditopological texture spaces defined in cite{OB} to the graded ditopological texture spaces and investigate graded ditopologies generated by graded diuniformities. The autors...
