A frame of reference is presented for describing the empirical laws of human learning and performance in terms of stimulus (S), organismic (O), and response (R) variables. The relationship of experimentation to the discovery of laws and the construction of theories is outlined, and some problems connected with the objective specification of S, O, and R events are discussed. Learning as a systematic concept is treated at two definitional (formal vs operational) and two theoretical (Hull vs Estes) levels. An analysis of the hypothetical associative factor (Hall's H or Estes' x) reveals that it is basically a mathematical transformation of selected independent variables. Finally, a set of criteria is proposed by which the utility of theories of learning and performance may be evaluated.

<p>Relationship of normal emotions resembling startle and surprise with cognitive and motor learning and performance and its influence on self-feel rating were studied among 100 normal subjects those included 50 male and 50 female. Start Mirror Drawing (Electronic) for cognitive and motor learning and performance , created conditions containing stimulus values close to startle and surprise and personal feel question, quantity: 1 for self-feel rating were used. It was assumed that the relationship might exist? The data analysis revealed a relationship (r =.900**, p <.001) effect of different emotions (r =.831**, p <.001) on normal function, performance and on self-feel rating, its relevance with modernity discussed.</p>

Many factors affect the relationship of management and performance both in the context of profit and non-profit organization. One of the factors is culture. Researches have shown that culture may mediate or moderate the relationship. This current research investigates the moderating role of culture on the relationship of performance management and working performance of lecturers of Batanghari University. For this, a survey was conducted by distributing a questionnaire to 36 respondents randomly selected. MRA (moderated regression analysis) was used to analyze the data. The simple regression analysis (before culture added) found that performance management practices have a significant effect on lecturer performance with 67.5% of determinant coefficient. MRA analysis (after culture added), the determinant coefficient becomes 69%, meaning there is an increase of 1.5%. F-test shows that Sig. = 0.000 is smaller than ? = 0.05, indicating that the increase is considered significant. From this analysis, it can be concluded that culture significantly moderates performance of lecturers. Then, it is suggested that culture need to be strengthened in order to improve the relationship of performance management practices and performance of lecturers.

Abstract. Identifying pilot attributes associated with risk is important, especially in general aviation where pilot error is implicated in most accidents. This research examined the relationship of pilot age, expertise, and cognitive functioning to deviations from an ideal circuit trajectory. In all, 54 pilots, of varying age, flew a Cessna 172 simulator. Cognitive measures were obtained using the CogScreen-AE ( Kay, 1995 ). Older age and lower levels of expertise and cognitive functioning were associated with significantly greater flight path deviations. The relationship between age and performance was fully mediated by a cluster of cognitive factors: speed and working memory, visual attention, and cognitive flexibility. These findings add to the literature showing that age-related changes in cognition may impact pilot performance.

What do growth-oriented business models look like? While several economic theories, such as the theory of the firm, are based on the assumption that firms aim to maximise their profits, past research has shown that growth intention is heterogeneous among firms and that many business owners prefer to keep their firm at a size that they can manage with few resources. This paper explores the relationship of growth intention and business models, based on a sample of 135 German ICT businesses. Following an exploratory approach, Mann–Whitney U tests are applied to analyse how different business model designs correspond with different levels of growth intention. The results indicate that growth intention relates to business owners’ decisions regarding the provision of consulting services, the level of standardisation in offered products and services, the choice of addressed markets, the implementation of competitive strategies based on cost efficiency and of revenue streams based on one-time- and performance-based payments. Furthermore, the results show that growth oriented firms are no more likely than non-growth oriented firms to adapt their business models dynamically to changed internal or external conditions.
