Cognitive Interviewing to Assess a New Measure of Attitudes and Beliefs Held by Candidates for Bariatric Surgery
… Cognitive Interviewing to assess sources of response error in two new measures designed to identify attitudes and beliefs of candidates for bariatric surgery. Our hypothesis was that the newly created measures would be easy to understand and answer. METHODS: Twenty patients attending a …

A Comparison of PID and Sliding Mode Controllers When Applied to the Orbit Raising of a Satellite Using Solar Sail Propulsion
… with respect to settling time and state response error over a range of maximum reaction wheel torque values. The actuator saturation and actuator energy are then compared for two different sliding mode controllers and a PID controller. It was found that the sliding mode controller …

A verification experiment of the second formant transition feature as a perceptual cue in natural speech
… tested acoustic features. Changes in listener response error are reported. An ANalysis Of VAriance (ANOVA)is used to determine the perceptual significance of the features in question. Perceptual scores provide strong evidence against the role of the F2 transition in speech perception and strong …

Striving for quality, comparability and transparency in cross-national social survey measurement: illustrations from the European Social Survey (ESS)
… surveys often generate significant amounts of error during their design and implementation, best described by the Total Survey Error (TSE) framework. It is also widely accepted that cross-national surveys have the potential to increase that error further. This is because they most often …

Thermoelectric Cooler Based Temperature Controlled Environment Chamber Design for Application in Optical Systems
… a digitally implemented signal generator, an error correction controller, and the environment chamber heat sink structure. The signal generator is used as input for a switched-mode based Peltier driver found commercially. A feedback error controller compensates the driver for temperature …

A design procedure for model reference adaptive control
… However, conditions with plant modeling error highlight enormous differences among the four algorithms. Pole placement suffers the largest response error and for extreme testing conditions, instability. The CGT controller exhibits better performance than pole placement and remains stable …

The effects of task interruption on user performance in a multitasking environment: implications for computerized reminders
… perform three and five simultaneous tasks with a response accuracy of 98 percent. A large portion of that performance was attributed to practice and response pacing. In addition, the interruption task chosen for this study did not affect reaction time or response error performance on the main …

Evidence of compression and probabilistic representation during mental imagery
… based on perceptual factors and found that the response error rate was more strongly correlated with how fragmented the objects were than the total number of objects the test images contained. We also observed that a model that assumed a compressed representation of these images coupled with …

Behavioral and Functional Brain Correlates of Developmental Coordination Disorder: A Case-Control Study
… linked to visual-spatial processing, stimulus-response error monitoring, and motor learning. We conclude that our DCD child relied on different types of information than the control child when performing the visuo-motor tracking task, and that these differences in approach to the task …

Evaluating the Impacts of Respondent Errors in ARMS: A Case of Farm Service Agency Loans
… sector in the United States. Since nonresponse and inaccurate reporting may cause significant bias in statistical analysis, research was conducted to determine the magnitude of response error on the farm debt section of the ARMS Phase III. A multinomial logit model identified …

The influence of computer user knowledge and selected demographic characteristics the academic achievement of high school seniors
… studies to reduce the possibility of student response error in similar studies.
