educationmedicalundergraduateIterative hypothesis testing (IHT) or related strategies of diagnostic decision making have been taught in many curricula for medical students but not in psychiatry. We therefore asked whether the addition of training in IHT may add to the quality of the psychiatry course....
Grounded local knowledge achieved through ongoing ethnographic methods has enabled us to begin to understand the importance of tacit knowledge and the barriers to change. Interventions focused on individual capabilities or opportunities and individual behaviour change will not achieve systems change in ...
To plan how executive function skills could be supported in the programme, we developed an outline content structure based on a hierarchical model of executive function development, whereby basic skills involving attentional control and impulse control act as foundational building blocks for more-complex ...
Lastly, considering that increased expansion is anticipated to lead to volumetric dilution and reduced intensity4,27, we assessed the signal-to-noise ratio across the three methods in the first expansion gel (Supplementary Fig. 5a, b). Our analysis revealed that U-ExM exhibited the highest ...
In the field of remote sensing (RS), change detection (CD) methods are critical for analyzing the quality of images shot over various geographical areas, particularly for high-resolution images. However, there are some shortcomings of the widely used Con
2. Materials and Methods: CYCLES Training Center and CYCLES Carnivale The iterative design of each game entailed play testing, pilot testing, and formal experiments (three per game). In creating and testing our first game, CYCLES Training Center, we developed nine different versions of the game,...
What Does an Iterative Process Mean in Research? Research methods are inherently iterative. Scientists design a hypothesis, test it, note their conclusions, and then use those insights to influence the next hypothesis. Researchers begin with an observation and verify their findings, which lead to ne...
Section three, Practice, then puts game design into action. The five chapters in this section move through the iterative game design process of conceptualizing, prototyping, playtesting and evaluating the design of games as designed play experiences. ...
Methods for recruitment and a description of the FGDs with MSM during phase one have been previously described [27]. We conducted research with three populations: (1) MSM in Atlanta, Seattle, and rural US regions; (2) HIV testing counselors in Atlanta and Seattle; and (3) key informants ...
Methods General design To identify network alteration interventions that could be used in implementation, we developed a scoping review protocol consistent with Arksey and O’Malley’s framework [39] and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guideline [40,41...
