Apprentice and trainee data are reported by the State and Territory Training Authorities to the National Centre for Vocational Education Research (NCVER) on a quarterly basis, starting at the September quarter of 1994. The set of data submitted that quarter is referred to as Collection 1. The sets of data submitted in subsequent quarters are…

The present research was designed to investigate the relationship between binary units of information and the subjective use made of them. (Author)

In a series of three experiments on the role of memory in solving attribute-identification problems, the subjects did or did not have to remember their response and/or the stimulus for processing during any given intertrial interval. (Editor)

Two new experimental operations were used to distinguish between auditory and phonetic levels of processing in speech perception: the first based on reaction time data in speeded classification tasks with synthetic speech stimuli, and the second based on average evoked potentials recorded concurrently in the same tasks. (Editor)

The results of three studies clearly indicate that ongoing behavior is organized into perceptual units, and that these units may be validly identified by the Newtson (1973) unit marking procedure. (Author)

Assesses the effect of an additional year of institutionalization on the dichotic listening performance of paranoid schizophrenics. (Author/RK)

This study attempted to shed light on the role of items cued to be remembered in the forgetting of items cued to be forgotten. (Author)

Attempts to establish the degree of perspective convergence, which the Western observer will accept as a realistic portrayal of objects drawn in perspective, and to determine the relationship between acceptable convergence and viewing conditions. (Author/RK)

Tulving and others (Tulving, 1974; Tulving & Madigan, 1970) have distinguished two kinds of forgetting of verbal information: trace-dependent forgetting and cue-dependent forgetting. Attempts to determine which type occurs in retroactive inhibition of free-recall learning. (Author/RK)

One of a series of instructional booklets designed to introduce adult education program planners to the basic concepts integral to and alternative strategies for conducting needs assessments, this instructional booklet deals with determining how to summarize information. Described first is the relationship of the process of determining how to…

This paper states that the real gains in collecting data on the educational system appear to lie in discovering more about the relationships between schools and what they produce. The required data, which could be collected fairly cheaply from existing records, include (1) education outputs as measured by grade level completion, college…

The aim of the study reported here was to investigate an alternative method for scoring Flanders' Interaction Analysis Categories when students' competence in coding lesson transcripts was being assessed. (Author)

The main purpose of the present work was to bring together methods that had generated different patterns of results in order to determine whether those differences would persist if the same subjects were performing the two types of tasks. (Author)

Inexpensive telecommunications, the spread of computing, and globalization are creating major change in the location of work within and between countries. Because no tools have yet been developed to investigate the new spatial employment patterns, a cluster analysis involving more than 50 variables and 206 countries was performed to group…
