A two-stage model of category construction
… consisting of independent dimensions. A two-stage model of category construction is presented to specify the conditions under which FR categories would be produced. The first stage involved uni-dimensional sorting of most of the given exemplars into the prescribed number of groups. The second …

TOWARD A TWO-STAGE MODEL OF FREE CATEGORIZATION
… features shared by two objects could affect both stages (selection and comparison) in the labeling task, which might explain their super-additive effect, whereas it affected only the latter comparison stage in the similarity rating task. In this experiment, participants saw visual displays …

Towards a stage model of learning organization development.
… are developed at each of the three stages. The relationship among these stages is also confusing. The purpose of this research is to confirm whether organizations with a high level of LO characteristics also have a high level of readiness-to-change. It also attempts to verify the …

Two-stage model of destination image : exploring the consequences
… its feature of developing over time in several stages, there has been no attempt to examine pre- and post-visit destination images in integration. Therefore, based on the call by several scholars and theoretical support of its importance, the study set its purpose to examine the direct and …

A mathematical programming-based analysis of a two stage model of interacting producers
… computation of equilibrium solutions in a two-stage model of interacting producers. The model represents an industry involved with two major stages of production. On the production side there exist some (upstream) firms which perform the first stage of production and manufacture a semi-finished …

Processing of Behavior-Related Communications as a Function of Cognitive Elaboration: A Multiple-Stage Model
… of experiments provided support for a sequential-stage model of persuasion in which the type of cognitive processing that occurs at each stage depends on the ability to think about the information available. Both elaborative and nonelaborative processes are taken into account. Participants …

From novice to expert: assessment of the levels of expertise of South African Chartered Accountants and Auditors in an academic and professional programme using the Dreyfus's Five-Stage Model of Skills Acquisition
… expertise of different individuals at different stages in their professional auditing careers. The Dreyfus's five-stage model of skill acquisition (Dreyfus's model) offers a useful theoretical framework for understanding how individuals acquire knowledge and skills through formal instruction and …

Machine-Learning based Ship Traffic Prediction in the Suez Canal
… to predict the AADT. In order to do so, a 2-stage model is implemented that combines an image detection model followed by a correction factor model. The image detection model employs Mask R-CNN, a deep-learning neural network, and the correction factor model utilizes Long Short-Term Memory …

CFD investigation of the aerodynamic performance of a single-stage and a two-stage centrifugal fan
… pre-processor GAMBIT. Initially, a single-stage fan is analysed... The solution methods are used to lay the foundation for the CFD analysis of a two-stage, series-coupled assembly, connected by a cross-over duct. Modifications are applied to the intermediate geometry... A range of damper …

Spatial and temporal factors in visual-auditory interaction
… auditory targets in various experiments. The Two-Stage Model of visual-auditory interaction introduced by Colonius & Arndt (2001) was applied to the data. This prohabilistic approach describes at the first stage the peripheral processing of visual and auditory stimuli as a race. The amount of …

Multi-stage Stochastic Programming Models in Production Planning
… we study a series of closely related multi-stage stochastic programming models in production planning, from both a modeling and an algorithmic point of view. We first consider a very simple multi-stage stochastic lot-sizing problem, involving a single item with no fixed charge and capacity …

Factors leading to successful application of improvement tools for quality management
"This research proposes a generic two-stage model for ITA development in manufacturing and non-manufacturing organizations. The Early Stage (ES) occurs when an organization is in the initial stage of establishing an environment supportive of ITA, when tools are being introduced, and when tools are …
