Scaffolding understanding at a conceptual level in an L2 academic context: A SCT approach
Within the socio-cultural school of thought, Galperin, was influenced by Vygotsky’s theory of mind. Following Vygotsky’s argument about the leading role of instruction within the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD), Galperin developed an instructional approach, known as Systemic Theoretical …

The Development of the ATLAS SCT as a Luminometer and the Search for SUSY Decays with Compressed Mass Spectra
… If the ATLAS SemiConductor Tracker (SCT) can be employed as a luminometer using hit-counting algorithms, this issue may be mitigated. It is established here that the SCT can feasibly operate as a luminometer when recording two-or-more strip clusters with the standard binary readout …

Capturing the Impairment Profile of College Students with Sluggish Cognitive Tempo Symptoms
… increasing interest in Sluggish Cognitive Tempo (SCT) symptoms. Though SCT symptoms were once considered symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) inattentive type, controversy now exists regarding the role of the SCT symptom set in mental health. Several questions remain …

In vitro and in vivo effects of sorghum condensed tannins encapsulated in kafirin microparticles on digestive amylases
… Polyphenols like sorghum condensed tannins (SCT) inhibit α-amylase and α-glucosidase enzymes. However, orally administered SCT may have poor inhibitory action against amylases, due to non-specific protein binding. Research is required to determine how to effectively deliver SCT to the small …

A Study of coherent noise in binary Read-Out Systems and its applications to the ATLAS SemiConductor Tracker end-Cap
… physics. <br>The ATLAS Semi-Conductor Tracker (SCT) is positioned in between the other two tracking detectors (PIXEL and TRT). The SCT will provide precision tracking for charged particles using silicon micro-strip detectors. The perfomance of the SCT system mainly depends on two parameters, …

Development of a Method to Measure Clinical Reasoning in Pediatric Residents: The Pediatric Script Concordance Test
… medical trainees. The Script Concordance Test (SCT) is an emerging method of assessment that holds promise for the evaluation of clinical reasoning skills. Objectives: This study had 3 objectives: 1) to examine the validity of SCT scores in accurately discriminating clinical reasoning ability …

Regulation of Secretin the Neurohypophysis
Secretin (SCT) exists in the hypothalamo-neurohypophysis axis of the rat. Secretin receptor null mice show altered glomerular and renal tubular morphology along with mild polydipsia and polyuria. We hypothesize SCT may play a role in the physiology of water regulation in the rat. Water deprivation …

Assessing physical activity behaviors among patients in a federally qualified health center (FQHC) : implications for physician-based physical activity counseling.
… theories, such as the Social Cognitive Theory (SCT), can help understand PA behavior adoption and maintenance. Assessing the relationship between SCT constructs and PA among diverse patient populations can help improve physician-based PA counseling, a primary care initiative to increase PA …

Applying Sociocultural Theory to a Language Classroom Environment with Second-Year Students of College Russian
… this focus is called the Sociocultural Theory (SCT). SCT states that language learning is a socially mediated activity, i.e., an activity that is ‘mediated’ by the society or learning environment in which it takes place. As a relatively young field of study, SCT research has, for the most part, …

Understanding The Pathogenesis of Renal Medullary Carcinoma
… young individuals with sickle cell trait (SCT). It is not currently understood why RMC only affects certain individuals with SCT. We found that patients with RMC more frequently participated in high-intensity exercise than matched controls. Using mouse models of SCT, we demonstrated the …

Athlete and Coach Knowledge, Attitudes, and Perceptions of Sickle Cell Trait and National Collegiate Athletic Association Mandated Testing: Recommendations for Intervention
… It was necessary to 1) determine perceptions of SCT and NCAA mandated SCT testing from college coaches and athletes' points of view; 2) determine the necessary components of the Sickle Cell Orientation and Education (S.C.OR.E) intervention that will be developed to educate intercollegiate …

Buchi containment and size-change termination
… et al. presented the size-change termination (SCT) problem, along with both a reduction to Buchi automata and a Ramsey-based algorithm This algorithm strongly resembles the initial complementation constructions for Buchi automata. This leads us to wonder if theoretical gains in efficiency are …

Amplitude modulation and energy conservation of pulsation modes in delta Scuti stars
The pulsations in δ Sct stars are excited by a heat engine driving mechanism caused by in-creased opacity in their surface layers, and have pulsation periods of order a few hours. Space based observations in the last decade have revealed a diverse range of pulsational be-haviour in these stars, …

Patients' experience before, during and after stem cell transplantation-phenomenological study
… treatment such as stem cell transplantation (SCT). The purpose of this study was to develop our understanding of the meaning SCT has for African-American, Latino, and Caucasian patients before, during, and after stem cell treatment. An extensive review of the literature was conducted to …

Intra-individual variability in adult ADHD: an exploration of the viability of distinct purely inattentive condition
… heterogeneity owing to Sluggish Cognitive Tempo (SCT). Individuals with SCT exhibit behavioral characteristics dissimilar from individuals with ADHD; rather than being impulsive, hyperactive, and aggressive, they tend to be shy, day-dreamy, and cognitively slow. Researchers have hypothesized that …
