Interlibrary loan and commercial document supply: Finding the right fit     

Wayne Pedersen  David Gregory 《The Journal of Academic Librarianship》1994,20(5-6)

This study examined the cost and performance of six commercial document suppliers accessible via OCLC, and comapared their service to that of traditional interlibrary loan (ILL). Results indicated that, while commercial firms cannot be recommended as a wholesale replacement for ILL, they can add much-needed flexibility to a library's overall plan for document delivery.  相似文献

Educational and Employment Testing: Changing Concepts in Measurement and Policy     

Wayne J. Camara  Dianne C. Brown 《Educational Measurement》1995,14(1):5-11

How will the expansion of the concept of construct validity affect validation practice in employment testing? How does the need for consequential validity differ in educational and employment testing? How do the research bases differ for performance assessment in these settings? Are there parallel trends in policies for test use in education and industry?  相似文献   

Pennsylvania's transition to enterprise computing as a study in strategic alignment     

Steve Sawyer  Charles C. Hinnant  Tracey Rizzuto 《Government Information Quarterly》2008

We theorize about the strategic alignment of computing with organizational mission, using the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania's efforts to pursue digital government initiatives as evidence. To do this we draw on a decade (1995–2004) of changes in Pennsylvania to characterize how a state government shifts from an organizational to an enterprise perspective regarding computing. We document and analyze the strategic and operational aspects of a series of information and communications technology (ICT) planning efforts to highlight the nature and roles of strategic alignment used to achieve this transition. Findings from this analysis mark the importance of combining several approaches to strategic planning regarding the adoption and application of ICT.  相似文献   

Postural stability,clicker reaction time and bow draw force predict performance in elite recurve archery     

Wayne Spratford  Rhiannon Campbell 《European Journal of Sport Science》2017,17(5):539-545

Recurve archery is an Olympic sport that requires extreme precision, upper body strength and endurance. The purpose of this research was to quantify how postural stability variables both pre- and post-arrow release, draw force, flight time, arrow length and clicker reaction time, collectively, impacted on the performance or scoring outcomes in elite recurve archery athletes. Thirty-nine elite-level recurve archers (23 male and 16 female; mean age?=?24.7?±?7.3 years) from four different countries volunteered to participate in this study prior to competing at a World Cup event. An AMTI force platform (1000Hz) was used to obtain centre of pressure (COP) measurements 1s prior to arrow release and 0.5s post-arrow release. High-speed footage (200Hz) allowed for calculation of arrow flight time and score. Results identified clicker reaction time, draw force and maximum sway speed as the variables that best predicted shot performance. Specifically, reduced clicker reaction time, greater bow draw force and reduced postural sway speed post-arrow release were predictors of higher scoring shots. It is suggested that future research should focus on investigating shoulder muscle tremors at full draw in relation to clicker reaction time, and the effect of upper body strength interventions (specifically targeting the musculature around the shoulder girdle) on performance in recurve archers.  相似文献   

The University Experiences of Students with Learning Disabilities     

Karla K. McGregor  Natalie Langenfeld  Sam Van Horne  Jacob Oleson  Matthew Anson  Wayne Jacobson 《Learning disabilities research & practice》2016,31(2):90-102

To explore the university experiences of students with learning disabilities (LD), 63,802 responses to the 2014 Student Experience in the Research University Survey were analyzed. Compared to other students, those with self‐reported LD (5.96 percent) had difficulty with assignments and had more obstacles caused by nonacademic responsibilities and imposed by their skill levels. Students with self‐reported LD sensed more bias toward people with disabilities on campus, and they were less satisfied with their overall experience. Interactions between disability status and age suggested even more challenges for older students who self‐reported LD. Approximately one‐third of students who self‐reported LD received accommodations. The rate of accommodations was higher among individuals who were wealthy, who lived alone, and who were out‐of‐state students. Compared to students who self‐reported LD but reported no accommodations, those with accommodations had more contact with faculty and less difficulty with assignments.  相似文献

School English,literature and the knowledge-base question     

Lyn Yates  Larissa McLean Davies  Lucy Buzacott  Brenton Doecke  Philip Mead  Wayne Sawyer 《Curriculum Journal》2019,30(1):51-68

This article takes up questions about knowledge and the school curriculum with respect to literary studies within subject English. Its intention is to focus on literary studies in English from the context of current waves of curriculum reform, rather than as part of the conversations primarily within the field of English, to raise questions about the knowledge agenda, and the knowledge-base agenda for teaching and teacher education. The selection of texts and form of study of literature within the English curriculum has long been an area of controversy. Without assuming a particular position on knowledge in this area, this article shows that important questions of what knowledge-base teachers are expected to bring to their work are elided both in current regulations and debates, and in research on ‘good teaching’ in this area. If ‘literary studies’ (as a discipline or university major) is itself an unstable and changing field, what kind of knowledge does a good English teacher bring to their work? This paper takes up these questions in the context of the Australian Curriculum and standards for teacher registration, but it also points to the way these issues about knowledge are of broader relevance for researchers and teacher education.  相似文献   

Are there constraints on learned responses to odors from rewarded and nonrewarded rats?     

Paul J. Eslinger  H. Wayne Ludvigson 《Learning & behavior》1980,8(3):452-456

This study determined if test rats could utilize biological odors, generated from donor rats receiving reward (R) and frustrative nonreward (N) treatments, to predict reward and nonreward goal events equally well. In Phase 1, two groups of test rats were exposed to R and N odors that signaled, respectively, either R and N goal events (“same” condition) or N and R goal events (“opposite” condition). Rats demonstrated significant discriminative use of these odors under both conditions. Subjects in the “opposite” condition, however, were slightly slower to learn the discrimination. Reversal learning was readily accomplished in Phase 2, regardless of the same-opposite factor. Thus, little evidence for a constraint on learning was found, and an interpretation in terms of interfering response tendencies and their habituation seemed favored.  相似文献   

实践理性和道德的合理性--当代西方哲学道德合理性理论评析     

陈真 《华中科技大学学报(社会科学版)》2003,17(4):10-16

怎样证明道德行为的合理性一直是西方伦理学研究的主题之一。本从实践理性和实践理性的根据即价值着手，根据与行动相关的价值和中立于行动的价值之同的区别，内在主义和外在主义之同的区别，将西方关于实践理性的理论即论证道德合理性的理论分为四类：与行动相关的外在主义理论，与行动相关的内在主义理论，中立于行动的内在主义理论，以及中立于行动的外在主义理论。并对这些理论的内容及其优劣一一进行了述评。  相似文献
