Peer reviewedCadolino, C.; Guazzo, M. – Information Processing and Management, 1982
Considers problem of optimal scheduling of Boolean expression (each Boolean variable represents binary outcome of program module) on single-processor system. Optimization discussed consists of finding operand arrangement that minimizes average execution costs representing consumption of resources (elapsed time, main memory, number of…

Peer reviewedStacy, E. Webb, Jr. – Evaluation and Program Planning: An International Journal, 1981
The use of prevalence data is discussed to help find the best way to separate at-risk and not-at-risk groups. Implications of the data being distributed normally are also discussed and several examples, including one with a nonnormal distribution, are given. (Author/GK)

Anderson, Richard Ivan – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1982
Describes confidence testing methods (confidence weighting, probabilistic marking, multiple alternative selection) as alternative to computer-based, multiple choice tests and explains potential benefits (increased reliability, improved examinee evaluation of alternatives, extended diagnostic information and remediation prescriptions, happier…

Peer reviewedKahneman, Daniel; Tversky, Amos – Cognition, 1979
Cohen's (TM 504 890) formal rules of intuitive probability lack normative or descriptive appeal, and his interpretation of the author's findings is not compelling. (CP)

Peer reviewedFleiss, Joseph L.; Cuzick, Jack – Applied Psychological Measurement, 1979
A reliability study is illustrated in which subjects are judged on a dichotomous trait by different sets of judges, possibly unequal in number. A kappa-like measure of reliability is proposed, its correspondence to an intraclass correlation coefficient is pointed out, and a test for its statistical significance is presented. (Author/CTM)

Loftus, Geoffrey R.; Kallman, Howard J. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1979
Subjects who named details in pictures performed better on subsequent recognition tests than their counterparts. Data support a model which assumes: (1) a constant probability of encoding a detail and (2) a detail is named either if it was encoded at study or with some bias probability. (Author/CP)
Descriptors: Bias, Cognitive Processes, Higher Education, Pictorial Stimuli
Peer reviewedMcGalliard, William; Cooney, Thomas J. – School Science and Mathematics, 1979
The necessity for inferring and predicting in everyday life is discussed. Eight activities, ranging from sixth- to twelfth-grade levels, are suggested. (MK)
