This study explored (i) the effect of visual feedback (supplied by video-tape) compared with verbal feedback in learning beginning trampoline; (ii) the effect of verbal ability on Ss' interpretation of feedback. 18 11 to 12-yr.-old boys were assigned to 2 groups: Group V (visual), N = 8; Group NV (non-visual), N = 10, matched for performance on beginning trampoline, general physical ability, and verbal ability as measured by the Mill-Hill Vocabulary Test, Form 1, Junior (1948). Results showed some superiority of Group V over Group NV (p > .05). However, Ss at all levels of verbal ability benefitted from visual feedback, while only Ss in Group NV with high verbal ability achieved a high performance score (r = 0.6, p < 0.05).

Summary: Vocabulary tests, part of most test batteries of general intellectual ability, measure both verbal and general ability. Newly developed techniques for confirmatory factor analysis of dichotomous variables make it possible to analyze the influence of different abilities on the performance on each item. In the testing procedure of the Computerized Swedish Enlistment test battery, eight different subtests of a new vocabulary test were given randomly to subsamples of a representative sample of 18-year-old male conscripts (N = 9001). Three central dimensions of a hierarchical model of intellectual abilities, general (G), verbal (Gc'), and spatial ability (Gv') were estimated under different assumptions of the nature of the data. In addition to an ordinary analysis of covariance matrices, assuming linearity of relations, the item variables were treated as categorical variables in the Mplus program. All eight subtests fit the hierarchical model, and the items were found to load about equally on G and Gc'. The results also indicate that if nonlinearity is not taken into account, the G loadings for the easy items are underestimated. These items, moreover, appear to be better measures of G than the difficult ones. The practical utility of the outcome for item selection and the theoretical implications for the question of the origin of verbal ability are discussed.

Spirit diagnosing is an important theory in TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine), by which a TCM doctor can diagnose a patient’s body state. But this theory is complicated and difficult to master simply learned from books. To further the theory and skill of spirit diagnosing, in this paper, the authors propose a remote education system that can accept videos from a user and give the user an auto-diagnosed spirit. The key technology in this system is eye feature computation in spirit diagnosing, for which rules describing “the spirit” (spirit in TCM refers to the human’s mental state which reflects the one’s general physical condition) state are mined by the quantitative features regarding the human eyes. With videos capturing eye condition during a short period, a set of eye features are extracted. On this basis, attribute intervals of the eye feature space is generated by CAIM (class-attribute interdependence maximization). Several of the candidate rules are then mined by the association rule based on the cloud model. Finally, three complementary rule-pruning methods are modified and combined to trim the candidate rules. The cross validation test for mined rules has an average accuracy of 93%, which shows the high performance of the proposed method.

Binary Compounds

While there are only two group IV semiconductors, Si and Ge, the III-V material system offers a nearly infinite number of single-crystal semiconducting compounds to choose from. For example, there are nine binary compounds resulting from combining the group III elements Al, Ga, or In with the group V elements P, As, or Sb. From this group, high-performance photovoltaic cells have been made from GaAs, GaSb, and InP. Using ternary III-V compounds, high-performance photovoltaic devices have been made with AlGaAs, GalnAs, GaAsP, and InGaP2. All of the above-cited photovoltaic cells have respectable energy conversion efficiencies of over 15%.A primary strength associated with the III-V semiconductor material system lies therefore in the diversity of materials to choose from. Thus, a single-crystal III-V compound can be found with almost any bandgap ranging from 0.16 eV for InSb to 2.24 eV for GaP (or 3.5 eV for GaN). But not only can one choose a material with a particular bandgap, one can, more importantly, as a result of tetrahedral covalent bonding, also be assured that that material can be grown as a single crystal with either n- and p-type doping, and that junctions can be formed with nearly ideal rectifying characteristics. The implication this holds for solar cells of ideal diode characteristics is the achievement of theoretical limit open-circuit voltages and fill factors. An additional important feature associated with many of the III-V compounds is the direct-gap photon absorption which translates to a short optical absorption distance, with the result that excited-state carriers in a solar cell are created near the junction.

Iq Discrepancy

The Seashore Rhythm Test, Form A, was administered to 90 strongly right-handed undergraduates who were placed in one of three WAIS Verbal-Performance IQ-discrepancy groups: High Verbal, Equal, or High Performance. In each group were 15 men and women. Subjects also rated their use of two guessing strategies, a sequential strategy and a holistic strategy, in completing the rhythm test. The High Performance group made significantly lower scores than the High Verbal and Equal groups who performed similarly. 33% of the High Performance group were below the clinical cut-off for this test as opposed to only 3% of High Verbal and 10% of the Equal groups. All groups reported using the sequential strategy most frequently and equally.

This paper looks at the theory, research, applied aspects, and future possibilities of using strengths-based positive interventions in action, modified for people with no or low literacy with the use of the camera and video feedback. Action-based modifications of interventions, focusing on the emergence of character strengths and immediate visual feedback may bring us a step closer to offering added beneficial changes to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

The Relationship

The present study investigated the relationship between verbal ability (as exemplified by Vocabulary test performance) and the ability to perform quickly (as exemplified by three tests varied in how important perceptual-integrative skills were thought to be involved in successful performance). In addition, the influence of Ss age on this relationship was examined. The WAIS Vocabulary, WAIS Digit Symbol, a pencil-and-paper Crossing-off test, plus a reaction-time procedure were given to Ss aged about 19 and about 71 yr. As the importance of speed relative to perceptual-integrative ability increased in successful performance, correlations with Vocabulary decreased. Principal component analyses suggested that Digit Symbol and Vocabulary performances shared equal variance in Cognition. Digit Symbol performance was also associated with Speed. While older age was associated with poorer performances, correlations among test scores were similar for old and young Ss.

100 mildly mentally retarded patients (50 male and 50 female) were given the Raven Coloured Progressive Matrices, the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test, and the Vocabulary subtest from the Stanford-Binet, Form L-M. There were no significant correlations between the Raven and the other tests. A significant correlation of .70 obtained between the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test and the Stanford-Binet Vocabulary subtest. Possible reasons for lack of the usual correlation of the Matrices with tests of verbal ability for this sample are discussed.
