Web-based intelligent tutoring systems are becoming increasingly sophisticated. One approach to the resulting complexity is to separate the application into a front-end applet providing the user interface and a back-end server managing the tutorial material. This makes it easier to integrate more complex questions and simple short answer questions in a single script. However, it is difficult to...

This research examined the effects of planning and executive functions on young children's (ages 3-to 5-years) strategies in changing scripts. Young children (N = 77) performed a script task (doll task), three executive function tasks (DCCS, red/blue task, and nine box task), a planning task, and a receptive vocabulary task.

INTRODUCTION Previous neuropsychological investigations have suggested that both the prefrontal cortex and the basal ganglia are involved in the management of script event knowledge required in planning behavior. METHODS This study was designated to map, the correlations between resting-state brain glucose utilization as measured by FDG-PET (positron emission tomography) and scores obtained b...

India is a multilingual multi-script country. There are totally 18 official languages and 12 scripts in India. For Optical Character Recognition (OCR) of such a multi-lingual document, it is necessary to identify the script before feeding the text lines to the OCRs of individual scripts.

In 8 studies the authors explored the procedural knowledge (secure-base script; H. S. Waters & E. Waters, 2006) associated with secure attachment (i.e., low scores on attachment anxiety and avoidance). The studies assessed the accessibility, richness, and automaticity of the secure-base script and the extent to which it guided the processing of attachment-relevant information. Secure attachment...
