“Students know what’s working and not working in schools before anyone else” (Advocates for Children,2012). Since the early 2000s, the notion that students have important insights into the effectiveness of their education and should therefore have a say in how to improve their experiences in...
Several instruments have been developed to measure frailty as part of a stepwise assessment of vulnerability. To classify older people as frail, different criteria have been validated in the literature, which mainly apply to two conceptual models: Fried’s phenotype of physical frailty [1] (Fig.1...
EEG and MEG reflect sponta- neous brain activity, but may also contain the response of the brain to specific events: event-related potentials (ERPs) and event-related fields (ERFs), respectively. The use of ERP/Fs allows us to rephrase questions about putative cognitive functions in terms of...
The overall approach relies on the ability to identify patient-specific parameters from data that are both patient-specific and time-varying, and thus manage the intra- and inter-patient variability that defines the typical ICU patient. As a result, such “sensitivities” can be the key to virt...
Additionally, we enhanced the applicability of our findings by con- solidating the evidence related to these infection-related outcomes into one composite outcome, reflecting the potential effectiveness of the measure as a safeguarding strategy for LTCFs in forthcoming pandemics. Methods In this review...
]). The PPRQ is a self-report questionnaire consisting of 9 Visual Analogue Scales from 0 (no risk) to 100 (extremely high risk) to measure a pregnant woman's perception of her pregnancy risk, both for the child and herself. The PPRQ includes 2 dimensions: perceived risk to herself, ...
Nonetheless, the internal quality of the measure was good as was indicated by tests of reliability and measurement invariance. Moreover, associations between variables at the student and class level might be considered less biased, since these variables were aggregated constructs and thus less ...
Local anesthesia is an important skill and a prerequisite for most dental treatments. However, the step from theory to application on the patient is huge for the novice. Hence, a mannequin training model course was developed and implemented into the exis
One important aspect of SRL knowledge that is focused on in this study is the development of an instrument to assess conditional SRL strategy knowledge. Strategy knowledge tests measure conditional knowledge about the adequacy of different SRL strategies with regard to a given learning problem. They ...
The Photo Editing Scale (PES) was newly developed to measure photo editing behavior related to the use of SNSs. It provides a brief measure and consists of five items, each of which are answered on a 5-point Likert scale with a response format ranging from 1 = “never” to 5 = “alwa...
