This meta-analysis examined the validity of the Graduate Record Examinations (GRE) and undergraduate grade point average (UGPA) as predictors of graduate school performance. The study included samples from multiple disciplines, considered different criterion measures, and corrected for statistical artifacts. Data from 1,753 independent samples were included in the meta-analysis, yielding 6,589 ...

Two glucocorticoid response elements (GREs) located 2.5 kb upstream of the transcription initiation site of the tyrosine aminotransferase gene were identified by gene transfer experiments and shown to bind to purified glucocorticoid receptor. Although the proximal GRE has no inherent capacity by itself to stimulate transcription, when present in conjunction with the distal GRE, this element syn...

A previous study of the initial version of the GRE analytical ability measure (Powers & Swinton, 1984) revealed practically and statistically significant effects of test familiarization on analytical test scores. (Two susceptible item types were subsequently removed from the test.) Data from this study were reanalyzed for evidence of differential effects for subgroups of examinees classified by...

Butt-joint regrowth is widely used in photonic integration, but it has been challenging to break the density-quality tradeoff due edge growth rate enhancement (GRE) effect. In this work, we propose a scheme circumvent by using large masks whose centers are exposed epi-growth for neutralization of excessive species. With GRE under control, epi-stacks with arbitrarily sizes supporting dense array...

Our aim in this study was to create a noninvasive and practical method for evaluating metabolic information on the liver (iron content and lipid infiltration) and spine (bone mineral density and marrow fat degeneration) by using double gradient-echo with and without the spectral fat suppression technique (double-GRE-FS). We arranged phantoms made of various concentrations of superparamagnetic i...
