The final exams for English in Dutch secondary schools contain a multiple choice component for text comprehension. The questions in this component are mainly about factual content but progressively also about communicative aspects such as opinions and style. It is usually assumed that the latter add to the level of difficulty of the test in general. But is this really the case? In a (limited) project caried out by the University of Groningen this assumption has been tested in six pre-final forms at three grammartype schools, by setting the same test in Dutch and in English within a six-week interval. At the same time the influence of vocabulary command was mapped out against the overall test results. The communicative questions did not turn out to be more difficult in English than in Dutch and there appeared to be a strong correlation between the overall (not: single item) vocabulary command and general test score. The average test results were considerably higher (4.0) for the Dutch test than for the equivalent English one.

In the FRG the work of several centers is concerned with introducing a program of self-treatment for hemophi1iacso The general goal of a self-treatment-program is: avoidance of a time lag due to long distances and the expansion of personal freedom and life style possibilities.In respect to the dosage and treatment duration various opinions exist, some of them differing quite noticably from ours. Our conception about the therapy, existing since the beginning of our program (June 1971), is based on an intensive cooperation with the department of orthopedics at the university. Through our teamwork the following results were achieved:- the evaluation of 17.196 acute bleedings registered 93% joint and muscle bleedings- 98% of the patients over 11 years of age with severe and semi-severe hemophilia A or B revealed at least one, in several cases more, arthropathic changes- the pathophysiological process of a joint bleeding leads to an important electromyographic test as well as to new ideas about biomechanic.Based on the general test results a specific dosage plan for each patient resulted, which, together with the orthopedic findings took into consideration the attained biological recovery. Since our goal is the strenghtening and training of muscle in general, every patient receives a specially adopted training program, which largely excludes bleeding. Our results have lead to a 90% improvement of the original orthopedic finding.

Abstract In this article, common test results over the years 2000 – 2016 are analysed. The test questions for new entrants were based on secondary school mathematics. The students took the test in the first lesson of the higher mathematics course. The test results were analysed by years, by tasks and by specialities, and their differences were found. The test results’ dependence on state-exams score was studied and other types of dependence were looked at. It was found that the test score has a strong correlation with a state-exam but with high school mathematics mark and with later higher mathematics course marks has very weak correlation. During these 16 years, the questions that have been the most difficult for students have not changed. The highest test scores were found among students who had chosen the most popular specialities (with the highest competition).

Test Result

Fourteen children who misarticulated some phones of the /s/ phoneme were tape recorded articulating several lists of items involving /s/. The lists included the Mc-Donald Deep Test for /s/, three lists similar to McDonald’s but altered in broad context, and an /s/ sound production task. Scores from lists were correlated, compared for differences in means, or both. Item sets determined by immediate context were also compared for differences between means. All lists were found to be significantly correlated. The comparison of means indicated that both broad and immediate context were related to test result. The estimated “omega square” statistic was used to evaluate the percentage of test score variance attributable to context.

Personalised Feedback

AbstractThis contribution reports on the developing and piloting of a computer-based version of the test of English as a foreign language produced by the University of Central Lancashire (UCLan), where it is currently used for the admission of international students and the subsequent evaluation of their language progress. Among other benefits, computer-based testing allows for better and individualised feedback to both teachers and students, and it can provide a more authentic test experience in light of the current digital shift that UK universities are undergoing. In particular, the qualitative improvement in the feedback available for test-takers and teachers was for us a crucial factor. Providing students with personalised feedback, that is, directly linked to their performance, has positive washforward, because it means we can guide their future learning, highlighting the areas they need to work on to improve their language skills and giving them suggestions on how to succeed in academia. Furthermore, explaining the meaning of test results in detail improves transparency and ultimately washback, as teachers can use the more accessible marking criteria, together with information on how their students performed, to review plans and schemes of work for subsequent courses.

This article, written by JPT Technology Editor Chris Carpenter, contains highlights of paper SPE 201368, “Automated Solids-Content Determination in Drilling and Completions Fluids,” by Sercan Gul, SPE, Ali Karimi Vajargah, and Eric van Oort, SPE, The University of Texas at Austin, et al., prepared for the 2020 SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, originally scheduled to be held in Denver, 5–7 October. The paper has not been peer reviewed. Monitoring of low- and high-gravity-solids (LGS and HGS) content and maintaining these at ideal levels is essential for optimal drilling fluid performance, efficient hole cleaning and equivalent-circulating-density management, and prevention of failures of surface and downhole equipment during drilling. LGS and HGS monitoring in the field is currently accomplished using the API retort-kit measurement, which has certain drawbacks and is difficult to automate. In the complete paper, two new approaches are investigated to automate the LGS and HGS content measurements of drilling fluids, which potentially can replace the retort test. Introduction The conventional way to characterize LGS and HGS in the field is by using a retort-kit measurement specified in API Recommended Practices 13B-1 and 13B-2. The longevity of these tests is testament to the effectiveness of the API standards and the tests themselves in providing useful and practical field guidance. Despite their evident success, however, various downsides exist in current solids-content-testing methods. Retort-kit measurements present the following issues: - Difficulty in obtaining accurate and repeatable test results - Safety issues associated with laboratory testing at elevated temperatures (over 930°F) - Interpretive bias issues associated with test results, including the potential for deliberate manipulation of these results - Difficulty in automating the retort test for improved efficiency and safety The authors’ opinion is that automating antiquated API test protocols is not a useful practice. They write that a clean-slate approach would be better, in which a determination is made whether solids-content information can be provided in a novel and meaningful way using methods that deviate from standard API recommended practices. In the complete paper, the authors investigate a machine-learning (ML) and data-analytics method for this purpose in combination with a novel inline X-ray fluorescence (XRF) measurement method.

The Impact

Background: The current situation due COVID-19 may cause an eminent impact on mental health because the confinement restrictions. Aims: The aim of this study was to analyze and compare perceived stress, resilience, depression symptoms and coping strategies on the members of University of Campinas, in Brazil, before and during the outbreak of the COVID-19. Methods: Volunteers over 18 years of both sexes, members of the University of Campinas (Unicamp) in Brazil answered instruments related to perceived stress, depression, resilience and coping strategies during final exams at the end of semester during 2018 to 2020. Results: We obtained 1,135 responses (893 before COVID-19 and 242 during COVID-19). The volunteers did not show significant differences for perceived stress, depressive signs and resilience before and during the pandemic. In both periods, men exhibited lower scores for perceived stress and depression and higher scores for resilience when compared to women. Undergraduate and graduate students exhibited higher perceived stress scores, more pronounced depressive signs and lower resilience, and employees and professors presented lower scores for perceived stress, depressive signs and greater resilience. Conclusions: These first months of confinement did not directly affect the scores of perceived stress, depression and resilience, however, each subgroup adapted to the new routine by changing the coping strategy used. This study suggests the importance of monitoring the mental health of member in the university, especially in times of epidemic, in the search for policies that aim to improve the resilience of the population and seek positive and effective coping strategies within the university environment.

The Difference

This article describes research which has focused on the level of difficulty of texts and questions as an explanation for the difference in text comprehension between non-native and native pupils. The degree to which text comprehension in native and non-native pupils could be facilitated by means of controlling texts and questions was investigated. From the results the following conclusions were drawn: 1) Non-native pupils scored significantly lower than native Dutch pupils in all tests that dealt with text comprehension; 2) When the test questions were controlled by changing a number of factors which supposedly made understanding more difficult, the scores of both non-native and native pupils improved significantly; 3) When the texts of the tests were rewitten, the non-native pupils improved in their scores and the native pupils did not; 4) When both the texts and questions were controlled, the results seemed to show that the non-native pupils had caught up for a great part where they were found to have "lagged behind".

This paper describes the development and testing of a gas sampling probe that quenches chemical reactions by using supersonic expansion and helium dilution. Gas sampling probes are required for accurate measurement of exhaust emissions species, which is critical to determine the performance of an aircraft engine. The probe was designed through rounds of computational modeling and laboratory testing, and was subsequently manufactured and then tested at the University of Tennessee Space Institute (UTSI) behind a General Electric J85 turbojet engine at different power settings: idle, maximum military and afterburning. The experimental test results demonstrated that the Chemical Quick-Quench (CQQ) probe suppressed the oxidation of carbon monoxide (CO) inside the probe system and preserved more CO at afterburning conditions. In addition, the CQQ probe prevented hydrocarbons from being partially-oxidized to form CO at idle powers, and measured higher hydrocarbons and lower CO emission compared to a conventional probe at that low power condition. The CQQ probe also suppressed nitrogen dioxide (NO2) to nitric oxide (NO) conversion through all engine power settings. These data strongly support the conclusion that the CQQ probe is able to quench unwanted chemical reactions inside the probe for all engine power levels.
