Data from on-road and simulation studies were compared to assess the validity of measures generated in simulator. In study, driver interaction with three manual address entry methods (keypad, touch screen rotational controller) was assessed an instrumented vehicle evaluate relative usability safety implications. A separate group participants drove a similar protocol medium fidelity, fixed-base driving simulator extent which mirrored those obtained field. Visual attention task mapped very...
Both Chinese and English literacy-related measures cognitive-linguistic behavioural tasks were tested in second third graders who L1 (N = 29) L2 speakers 34), order to answer the following question: How do these two groups differ language cognitive correlates of particular literacy skills? While group's scores showed relatively substantial correlations a range variables with word-reading writing skills, for group only correlation was between phonological awareness skills both English....
This study assessed the effects of three intervention programs for Chinese literacy development in kindergartners: copying (Copy) program; a combined program and Pinyin knowledge (Copy + Pinyin); morphological awareness MA). Ninety-seven kindergarteners aged 5–7 years mainland China (30 Copy, 32 Copy Pinyin, 35 MA) participated. Thirty untrained children served as control group. Children were tested on nonverbal IQ, awareness, orthographic phonological invented spelling, word reading writing...
How do native Chinese‐speaking (CS) and non‐Chinese‐speaking (NCS) children learn to read write in Chinese? In the present study, 29 CS 34 NCS second third graders aged 76 122 months ( M = 93.65) participated an experiment where they were taught 16 new Chinese characters one of four conditions – copy, radical, phonological look–say. Results showed that copying condition best facilitated writing for both groups, whereas radical knowledge only children's writing. benefited more from than...
Autism spectrum disorders(ASD)describe a wide range of pervasive developmental disorders by core symptoms including deficits in social communication and interaction, as well restricted, repetitive, stereotyped behaviors. At the same time, some children with autism are accompanied motor development disorder. Many studies have confirmed that impairment was significantly associated problems ASD. Thus, this study aimed to investigate how affects adaptability ASD provide references for early...
Because the average students are prevailing part of student population, it is important but difficult for educators to help by improving their learning efficiency and outcome in school tests. We conducted a quasi-experiment with two English classes taught one teacher second term first year junior high school. The experimental class was composed (N=37), while control comprised talented (N=34). Therefore performed differently subject mean difference 13.48 that statistically significant based...
Introduction Parental burnout is a mental state that combines long-term stress and depression with an overwhelming feeling of parental pressure. Methods In Study 1, we conducted web-based survey 390 Chinese parents (75.1% mothers) children aged 1–18 years old (Mean age = 9.05 years, SD 5.098) to examine the during COVID-19 global pandemic identify associated factors national lockdown. 2, eight weeks resilience intervention was administered 20 compare before after intervention. Results The...
Children's drawings of common object categories become dramatically more recognizable across childhood. What are the major factors that drive developmental changes in children's drawings? To what degree a product their changing internal category representations versus limited by visuomotor abilities or ability to recall relevant visual information? explore these questions, we examined which drawing recognizability vary different tasks memory demands (i.e., from verbal vs. picture cues) and...
With the exponential growth of clinical data which are longitudinal, sparse and heterogeneous, deep learning methods receiving increasingly attention for predictive tasks in healthcare. These have strong abilities to extract low-dimensional representations prediction from patient's historical information without human intervention. However, most existing approaches focus on outpatients, such as disease progression, readmission risk so on. Considering differences about characteristics goals...
Research Findings: This study evaluated the impact of Chinese literacy interventions on language learning South Asian children and their mothers in Hong Kong. A total 44 eight participated that consisted two approaches – Copying Morphological Awareness Training (CMAT) Integrative Perceptual Approach (IPA). Children intervention group who underwent four weeks CMAT followed by IPA were compared to a control 29 only attended regular classes preschools. After controlling for non-verbal...
The application of stochastic volatility (SV) models in the option pricing literature usually assumes that market has sufficient data to calibrate model’s risk-neutral parameters. When are insufficient or unavailable, practitioners must estimate model from historical returns underlying asset and then transform resulting into its equivalent. However, likelihood function an SV can only be expressed a high-dimensional integration, which makes estimation highly challenging task. Bayesian...
