Incorrect restraint use is widespread among child passengers and increases the risk of injury in a crash. Based on previous laboratory testing, individual modes of incorrect use are often rated as serious or minor. However, in a recent populationbased observational study in NSW Australia, almost one third of incorrect use was found to involve multiple minor errors. In this test series we hypoth...

Undergraduate MS business students developed and debugged a spreadsheet modelfrom a wordproblem. This model consisted ofa bid to build a wall. The problem was designed to be relatively simple and domain-free, to address the concern that past spreadsheet experiments mqv have usedproblems that were too dtflcult or that required domain knowledge that subjects did not have. During the development p...

The “strange phenomenon”, discovered by Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen in the nineteenth century, that sensitized barium platinocyanide plates at the time of their studies on cathode rays in the gas tube, were called Ray X. The discovery of these new rays with singular characteristics gave greater clinical and practical insight into dentistry. This new form of energy gave rise to imaging obtained from ...

In the spreadsheet error community, both academics and practitioners generally have ignored the rich findings produced by a century of human error research. These findings can suggest ways to reduce errors; we can then test these suggestions empirically. In addition, research on human error seems to suggest that several common prescriptions and expectations for reducing errors are likely to be ...

Elimination of medical errors is important for pathologists. Errors occurring in surgical pathology involve specimen defects, specimen labeling, processing, diagnosis, and reporting defects. Errors occur during prelaboratory, laboratory, and postlaboratory phases. We reviewed our experience with mislabeled specimens in the laboratory for an 18-month period. The percentage of error was calculate...

Abstract This study evaluated the translation quality of English equivalents of Persian proper nouns in the tourist signs and bilingual boards in Isfahan. To find different errors in the translations of the bilingual boards and tourist signs, the data were collected directly by taking picture or writing exactly from the available tourist signs and bilingual boards. Then, the errors were assesse...

Appropriate reactions to erroneous actions are essential to keeping behavior adaptive. Erring, however, is not an all-or-none process: electromyographic (EMG) recordings of the responding muscles have revealed that covert incorrect response activations (termed "partial errors") occur on a proportion of overtly correct trials. The occurrence of such "partial errors" shows that incorrect response...

Classical planners assume that their internal model is both correct and complete. The dynamic nature of realworld domains (e.g., multi-user software environments) makes these assumptions untenable. Several new planners (e.g.,XII [2]) have been designed to work with incomplete information, and strides have been made in planning with potentially incorrect information. But, efficient operation in ...
