A comparison of individual supervision and triadic supervision.
… supervision were created for this study: Split Focus and Single Focus. Triadic consists of two supervisees and one supervisor meeting for one hour. During the Split Focus, 30 minutes was allocated to each counselor for supervision. During the Single Focus, the whole hour was spent supervising …

Development of high-speed two-photon microscopy for biological and medical applications
… mirror scanner. This system is based on single-focus scanning and single-pixel signal collection. The usage of higher input power is required to compensate for the signal reduction due to higher scanning speed. However, since fluorescence signal is ultimately limited by the saturation of …

Shifting from Single-Focused Tiered Systems to the Integrated Multi-Tiered Systems of Support Framework: A Review of State Every Student Succeeds Act Plans
… as growing research emphasizes shifting from single-focused tiered systems such as Positive Behavioral Interventions and Support (PBIS) and Response to Intervention (RtI) to the integrated Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS) framework. In 2015, federal leaders included the general term …

Equivariant Autoregressive Models for Molecular Generation
… small molecules. At each sampling iteration, a single focus atom is selected, which is then used to decide on the next atom’s position within its neighborhood. Symphony built on previous autoregressive models by using message-passing with higher-order equivariant features, allowing a novel …
