With the increasing refinement of language processing models and the new discoveries about which variables can modulate these processes, stimuli selection for experiments with a factorial design is becoming a tough task. Selecting sets of words that differ in one variable, while matching these same words into dozens of other confounding variables…

In the article here is up-to-dated the problem of creation and implementation of the complex system on measurement and assessment of the teachers' competences. Here are presented approaches and approbations of the computer test as a means to assess formation of the teacher's metasubject competences on the example of researching of the group of…

A pattern-analytical technique, Similar Response Analysis (SRA), was developed, validated with contrived data, verified using previously reported data based on other pattern-analytical methods, and used successfully with "real" data. This technique orders subjects on the basis of the similarity of responses of adjacent individuals, not…

Conducted a Monte Carlo computer simulation of the ANOVA design to detect job differences. The design proved reasonably powerful in detecting differences. A second study used Monte Carlo methods to analyze the viability of techniques for determining job differences. Offers guidelines for selecting statistical techniques. (Author/RC)

THE TWELFTH IN A SERIES COVERING RESEARCH IN AUTOMATIC STORAGE AND RETRIEVAL, THIS REPORT IS DIVIDED INTO THREE PARTS TITLED EVALUATION, CLUSTER SEARCHING, AND USER FEEDBACK METHODS, RESPECTIVELY. THE FIRST PART, EVALUATION, CONTAINS A COMPLETE SUMMARY OF THE RETRIEVAL RESULTS DERIVED FROM SOME SIXTY DIFFERENT TEXT ANALYSIS EXPERIMENTS. IN EACH…
