Purpose: This preliminary investigation compared effects of time compression on intelligibility for male versus female talkers. We hypothesized that time compression would have a greater effect for female talkers. Method: Sentence materials from four talkers (two males) were time compressed, and original-speed and time-compressed speech materials…

In recent years, general relativity (GR) and gravitational-wave astronomy have emerged both as active fields of research and as popular topics in physics classrooms. Teachers can choose from an increasing number of modern instructional models to introduce students to relativistic ideas. However, the true potential of an instructional model can…

There is a long-standing debate over whether the passage of time causes forgetting from working memory, a process called trace decay. Researchers providing evidence against the existence of trace decay generally study memory by presenting familiar verbal memory items for 1 s or more per memory item, during the study period. In contrast,…

Successful language use requires the ability to process nonadjacent dependencies (NADs) that occur in linguistic input. Learning such structural regularities seems therefore crucial for children, and researchers have indeed proposed that language problems in children with developmental language disorder (DLD), especially problems with grammar, are…

Background: Balance control is an essential element of locomotion that enhances biomotor abilities and physical performance. Individuals with extensive soccer experience display superior static single leg balance control compared to athletes of other sports as well as non-athletes. However, during a match, players often encounter greater…

Although impairment in sensory integration is suggested in the autism spectrum (AS), empirical evidences remain equivocal. We assessed the integration of low-level visual and tactile information within and across modalities in AS and typically developing (TD) individuals. TD individuals demonstrated increased redundancy gain for cross-modal…

The aim of this study is to provide the validity and reliability analysis of the ?Serious Leisure Inventory and Measurement (Short Form)? SLIM and introduce it to the literature. The data obtained from 285 university students and the KMO-Barlett test was performed and the sample size was tested (0.89; 2506.309, p<0,001). A three subdimensions…

This article calls for replication of two studies (Li, Zhu & Ellis 2016; Arroyo & Yilmaz 2018) that examine the timing of corrective feedback, which refers to whether errors should be corrected during a communicative task (immediate feedback) or after the task is completed (delayed feedback). The article starts with a rationale for…

Analyzing students' activities in their learning process is an issue that has received significant attention in the educational data mining research field. Many approaches have been proposed, including the popular sequential pattern mining. However, the vast majority of the works do not focus on the time of occurrence of the events within the…

In the last decade, some in the field of leisure studies have embraced the experience economy/industry model introduced by Pine and Gilmore (2011) in the late 1990s. While tenets of the experience industry can be found earlier in leisure studies, especially in regards to programing and event management, the idea that experiences should be…

The nutritional considerations that aid in the recovery of an athlete after intermittent exercise and the timing of nutrients are vital to the athlete's performance in their sport. This article will focus on carbohydrate, protein, fluids, and timing of recovery nutrition. The intake of carbohydrates for both endurance and resistance exercise has…

During every moment of our lives, we are surrounded by radiation from natural and manmade sources. Our bodies contain radionuclides from which we receive radiation. Radionuclides are found in the foods we eat and in the ground we walk on. We receive cosmic radiation from space. Radionuclides are also found in the airborne particles we breathe. The…

In this study, we aimed to investigate static and dynamic balance, reaction time, attention and BMI values at the athletes being in the individual and team sport. 78 individual athletes (karate 17, judo 15, Gymnastics 14, table tennis 12, wrestling 20) and 58 team athletes (handball 23, basketball 13, volleyball 10, football 12) with formal…

In this article, the authors posit that generative artificial intelligence offers universities an opportunity to make long-needed structural changes in teaching and learning. Given the complexities of generative AI, faculty need time and resources to learn to use it effectively and to adapt classes in ways that help students approach AI ethically…

This study examined the association between observers and students' reports of instructional support at the classroom-level, and whether students' off-task behavior predicted their perception of instructional support over time. The sample consisted of 1306 students and 79 teachers. Multilevel Structural Equation Modeling was applied to the…
