INTRODUCTION The aim of the dissertation was to com- pare the psychophysical state of people over 50 years of age from different societies. MATERIAL AND METHODS The first group consisted of 30 care home residents, the second group consisted of 30 participants of Active Senior Fair. In the research, two scales were applied: Mini-Mental State Examination, measuring the mental state, and Instrum...

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a linear programming method for assessing the efficiency and productivity of organizational units called decisionmaking units (DMUs). We propose a new network DEA (NDEA) model for measuring the performance of agility in supply chains. The uncertainty of the input and output data is modeled with linguistic terms parameterized with fuzzy sets. The proposed fuzzy...

Loss of balance and falling are critical concerns for older adults. Physical activity can improve balance and decrease the risk of falling. The purpose of this study was to evaluate a simple, low-cost exercise program for community-dwelling older adults. Sixteen senior adults were evaluated using the Senior Fitness Test for measures of functional strength, aerobic endurance, dynamic balance and...

in this context and for helping to manufacturing industries in this research an attempt has been made to provide a method to managers of evaluating and ranking of agility strategies by using of a fuzzy inference system which is a branch of artificial intelligence. this research has been performed in three sequential phases. firstly, some variables, as factors of agility drivers, agility capabil...

Determining requirements process efficiency, and measuring the corresponding monetary impacts, is a challenging but necessary aspect of project management. In this paper, we perform an independent analysis of scoping decisions from a large industrial project with the goal of providing new visualizations that facilitate investigations of process efficiency, agility, and the effects of scoping de...

This article looks at the relationship between the Information Technology (IT) infrastructure and organizations agility requirements. The concept of IT infrastructure agility has captured the attention of researchers and practitioners. Although the importance of IT infrastructure agility has been established, the development of a valid, reliable instrument to measure this construct has not been...

The study’s goal was to know the most important physical and agility of (60) metres young riders how motor skills lead end competition for riders. research community identified runners m in central Euphrates provinces, whose number is (13) runners. A sample (12) randomly selected from them, each runner given (6) attempts so that size becomes (72) attempts.
 After completing process testing...

The purpose of this study was to examine reliability and validity of a new method of measuring hand size in which a tape measure is wrapped around the hand in a figure-of-eight pattern. In the first experiment, two testers measured hand size in 60 individuals with no recent history of injury or surgery. Intraclass correlation coefficients of 0.99 and 0.97 indicated high intratester and intertes...
