Two experiments were conducted that examined the effect attentional focus has on learning a complex motor skill and subsequent performance under secondary task load. Participants in Experiment 1 learnt a golf putting task (300 practice trials) with a single instruction to either focus on their hands (internal focus) or the movement of the putter (external focus). No group differences were evide...

this paper presents the application of the fuzzy-neuro method toinvestigate transformer inrush current. recently, the frequency environment ofpower systems has been made more complicated and the magnitude of the secondharmonic in inrush current has been decreased because of the improvement of caststeel. therefore, traditional approaches will likely mal-operate in the case ofmagnetizing inrush w...

In the present work, the performances of improved two-stage multi inter-cooler trans- critical carbon dioxide (CO2) refrigeration cycles with ejector and internal heat exchanger have been examined. In the new improved cycles, an internal heat exchanger is append to the cycles. Also, second inter-cooler in improved cycles, cooled with the refrigeration of the cycle, so that in first c...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to develop and critically appraise a global rating scale (GRS) for the assessment of individual paramedic clinical competence at the entry-to-practice level. METHODS The development phase of this study involved task analysis by experts, contributions from a focus group, and a modified Delphi process using a national expert panel to establish evidence of con...

By the end of 2018, the net asset value in total and the number of Sharia mutual funds in Indonesia is dominated by the Sharia equity fund. Therefore, this study sought to address the factors of internal and external factors affecting the Sharia equity funds’ performance in Indonesia in the period 2010-2018. The fund performance is measured with the Sharpe ratio. The determinants of fund perfor...

PURPOSE To review the literature on the methods used in writing case-specific checklists for studies of internal medicine physicians' performances that were assessed by standardized patients. METHOD The authors searched Medline, Embase, Psychlit, and ERIC for articles in English published between 1966 and February 1998. The following search string was used: "[(standardi(*) or simulat(*) or pr...

BACKGROUND Objective structured clinical examinations (OSCEs) have been used to assess the clinical competence and interpersonal skills of healthcare professional students for decades. However, the relationship between preclinical (second year or M2) OSCE grades and clerkship performance had never been evaluated, until it was explored to provide information to educators at the University of Neb...

Background/Objective – It is widely recognized that quality indicators or performance indicators can give a valuable insight into the quality of care being provided to patients. It may not always prove easy to agree on such indicators, or to get individuals to agree willingly to be measured against such indicators. We aim to highlight the importance of linking institutional quality indicators t...
