Testing Models of Reactive Systems
Testing models of modern Real-time Embedded (RTE) systems is not straightforward due to timing constraints, numerous if not infinite possible behaviors, and complex communications between components. Software testing tools and approaches that can generate test cases to test these systems are …

Theorizing and Testing Models of Community Capacity and Acculturation
The primary purpose of this research project was to explain how Korean immigrants develop acculturation attitudes toward Korean and American culture and how these attitudes are related to their experiences within their community in America. In order to achieve this goal, this project consisted of …

Testing Models of Voter Choice: The Case of Polish Parliamentary Elections, 1997-2005
… socio-psychological, economic, and issue-based models of voting, examine the relative weight of the major variables in each model, and test their statistical significance.</p>

Unravelling Spiral Ganglion Neuron Electrophysiology: Heterogeneity, Gene Therapy, and In-Vitro Testing Models
Hearing impairment is a prevalent global health challenge, and cochlear implants (CIs) have emerged as a transformative solution for individuals with severe to profound hearing loss. However, the variability in CI outcomes, especially in complex listening situations, underscores the need for …

Testing models of the adaptive evolution of consistent individual differences in behavior using sticklebacks
… factors have been implicated in several models: competition, social interactions and environmental uncertainty. Therefore for my dissertation I tested whether these factors influence consistent individual differences as predicted by theory. Additionally, these models make several …

Testing models of ultra-fast India-Asia convergence : new paleomagnetic results from Ladakh, Western Himalaya
Rapid India-Asia convergence has led to a major continental collision and formation of the Himalayas, the highest mountain range on Earth. Knowledge of the paleolatitude of the Kohistan-Ladakh Arc (KLA), an intermediate tectonic unit currently situated between the converging Indian and Eurasian …

Pilot testing models of task shifting for the care of severe mental illness in South Africa
… training intervention. T-tests and regression models were used to test changes in questionnaire scores before and after each intervention, adjusting for baseline scores. Quantitative data were entered and analysed using STATA 10.0 for the pilot randomized controlled trial and the R statistical …

The Dynamics of American Welfare Policy: Testing Models of Growth for Aid to Families With Dependent Children
This study examined the causes of growth in the Aid to Families with Dependent Children program over the years 1946 through 1977 in Illinois. Specifically, six hypotheses were tested: AFDC growth is a function of population, level of employment, level of anti-poverty spending, incidence of civil …

The adaptation of language testing models to national testing of school graduates in Nepal : processes, problems and emerging issues
… and how it may be adapted to better suit the testing and educational needs of secondary school education in Nepal. Further, it makes a contribution to knowledge about how ESL/EFL language tests may be adapted and applied in order to meet the system-wide needs for EFL testing in developing …

The development and application of point-of-care pathology testing (POCT) models for the early detection and management of diabetes and renal disease in indigenous medical services.
… thesis was: Could POCT ( point-of-care pathology testing) models that were analytically sound and clinically and culturally effective be established in Australian Indigenous medical services for the prevention and management of diabetes and renal disease? The systematic approach to answer this …

Methods for Testing Transport Theories
… temperature gradient. Although many theoretical models have been introduced to describe anomalous transport mechanisms, none of the proposed models, alone, provides a satisfying description of the experimental data. In recent years, there has been a great interest in the theoretical multiple mode …

Bayesian Adjustment for Multiplicity
… It considers three main kinds of multiple-testing scenarios: tests of exchangeable experimental units, tests for variable inclusion in linear regresson models, and tests for conditional independence in jointly normal vectors. Multiplicity adjustment in these three areas will be seen to have …

A Multi-Language Goal-Tree Based Functional Test Planning System
… are used to guide, organize and document the testing activities during hardware design process. Manual test planning and configuration is known to be labor intensive, time consuming and error prone. It is desirable to develop efficient approaches to model testing and to develop test tools to …

Development of Methods for Improved Data Integrity and Efficient Testing of Wind Tunnel Models for Dynamic Test Conditions in Unsteady and Nonlinear Flight Regimes
… even above maximum lift. Current aerodynamic models are inadequate in predicting flight characteristics in the expanded envelope, such as rapid aircraft departures and other unusual motions. Unsteady flows of aircraft are of real concern. The ability to accurately measure aerodynamic loads …

The Aptitude Domain: A Componential Analysis of Learner Aptitude in Second Language Acquisition
… L2 learning experience.</p> <p>Based on previous testing models, an aptitude test was devised and used to assess 35 participants who possess different levels of L2 learning experience. To test whether grammatical sensitivity is influenced by prior language experience, and to better determine the …

A study of kinematics and kinetics in time-constrained arm movements
… of different position-dependent motor control models, was done. Particularly, an exponential spring model, a linear spring model, and a linear spring with relative damping model were each tested to see how well they could predict a change in produced output torque from a change in position. …

New group testing paradigms: from practice to theory
We propose a novel group testing framework, termed semi-quantitative group testing, motivated by a class of problems arising in genome screening experiments in addition to other applications such as interpretable rule learning for decision making. Semi-quantitative group testing (SQGT) is a …

GPU-based acceleration of radio interferometry point source visibility simulations in the MeqTrees framework
… Such simulated visibilities are important for testing models of external factors that affect the accuracy of observed data, such as radio frequency interference and interaction with the ionosphere. MeqTrees is a widely used radio interferometry calibration and simulation software package that …
