The papers presented in this volume discuss and attempt to understand the concept of fairness, define the scope of the concept and connect it with the concept of validation of test score in language assessment.
Proceedings of the Ninth International Conference on Estuarine and Coastal Modeling, held in Charleston, South Carolina, October 31-November 2, 2005. This collection contains 48 papers that explore the development, testing, application, calibration, validation, and visualization…
This book contains a number of chapters on transactional database concurrency control. A two-sentence summary of the volume's entire sequence of chapters is this: traditional locking techniques can be improved in multiple dimensions, notably in lock scopes (sizes), lock modes (i…
The need for a positive safety culture in healthcare is essential. It not only advances the prevention and reduction of possible medical errors and threats to patient safety, but also enhances the overall quality of healthcare services provided, especially in respect of medicati…
Whiplash is a neck injury caused by the sudden differential movement between the head and torso. Whiplash injuries are most commonly reported as a consequence of rear impacts in car accidents. They are regarded as minor injuries, but can still lead to long-term disablement and d…
Accurate prediction of strong ground motion is central to seismic hazard analysis in order to estimate losses during major earthquakes. Ground motion simulations are essential to seismic ground motion prediction, especially for locations of infrequent observations, such as large…
In strongly heterogeneous natural porous media, fluid flow is subject to complex geological structure and uncertainties in subsurfaces. As a consequence, mathematical models governing flow of fluids in porous media possess uncertain physical coefficients such as permeability. Wi…
Background : Depression is one of the leading causes of disability and largest contributor to the global burden of disease. In sub-Saharan Africa, depression often goes undetected and untreated, in part, due to a lack of validated screening and diagnostic instruments. Therefore,…
Self-coherence as the hub of all needs is a novel proposition made by Carol Dweck (2017), and not yet further explored. While supporting self-coherence with a comprehensive review of its presence within behavioral sciences, Dweck does not dive deeper into it, and offers an invit…
