A Study into the Usability and Security Implications of Text and Image Based Challenge Questions in the Context of Online Examination
(2019-01-15)Online examinations are an integral component of online learning environments and research studies have identified academic dishonesty as a critical threat to the credibility of such examinations. Academic dishonesty exists ... -
A Study of a Single Robot Interacting with Groups of Children in a Rotation Game Scenario
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2005)We tested the hypothesis that children are more attentive to a robot if the robot appears to be interested in the children. In addition, we investigated if and how the quality and quantity of a child's attentive behaviour ... -
A Study of AGN and their Environments in the Far-Infrared
(University of Hertfordshire, 2014-08-28)My Ph.D. has been composed of work involving the use of far–IR and submm observations of AGN. During this time it has focused on the in- terplay between AGN and their host galaxies and cluster environments. Understanding ... -
A study of baseline prevalence and cumulative incidence of comorbidity and extra-articular manifestations in ra and their impact on outcome
(2013)Objectives. To study the prevalence at diagnosis and cumulative incidence of comorbidity in RA, associations with clinical features and impact on outcome.Methods. Standard clinical, laboratory and radiological measures of ... -
A study of cognitive and behavioural transfer effects associated with children learning to play musical instruments for the first time over one academic year.
(2015-10-08)Interest in studies investigating the indirect effect of music education, evaluated theoretically as ‘transfer effects’ (Barnett & Ceci, 2002) has been re-energised by the recent changes in policy that require musical ... -
A study of disjunctive and conjunctive reasoning in formal logic
(University of Hertfordshire, 1997)When reasoning with statements containing logical connectives in everyday discourse, people sometimes employ reasoning strategies that do not comply with the dictates of logic yet are still sufficient for their purpose. ... -
A study of effective and best practice usage and implementation of tablet PCs in engineering education
(2016-09-14)There are certain limitations with traditional presentational-style (‘PowerPoint’) lectures that must be addressed in order to improve the quality of lecturing and meet students’ expectations on lecture quality and experience. ... -
A study of episodic memory-based learning and narrative structure for autobiographic agents
(The Society for the Study of Artificial Intelligence and the Simulation of Behaviour (AISB), 2006) -
A study of full space motions of outer Galactic disk A and F stars in two deep pencil beams
(2019-05-01)A and F stars can be used as probes of outer Galactic disc kinematics: here we extend the work of Harris et al. by cross-matching their A/F sample with Gaia DR2 to bring in proper motions. These are combined with the already ... -
Study of Gross Muscle Fatigue During Human-Robot Interactions
(IARIA, 2017-03-19)This study explores the utility of Electromyogram (EMG) signals in the context of upper-limb exercises during human-robot interaction considering muscle fatigue of the participant. We hypothesise that the Electromyogram ... -
A study of halo and relic radio emission in merging clusters using the Murchison Widefield Array
(2017-05-01)We have studied radio haloes and relics in nine merging galaxy clusters using the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA). The images used for this study were obtained from the GaLactic and Extragalactic All-sky MWA (GLEAM) Survey ... -
Study of inheritable mutations in von Neumann self-reproducing automata using the GOLLY simulator
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2011)This article involves the study of inheritable mutations in a von Neumann self-reproducing automaton, making use of the GOLLY cellular automata simulator. Multi-point mutations were done on the tape which holds the description ... -
A Study of Inhibition in Preschool Children at Risk of Developmental Language Disorder
(2020-07-13)Background: For many years, research and practice have noted the impact of the heterogeneous nature of Developmental Language Disorder (DLD - also known as language impairment or specific language impairment) on diagnosis ... -
Study of Photon Strength Function of Actinides : the Case of U-235, Np-238 and Pu-241
(2011-08-11)The decay from excited levels in medium and heavy nuclei can be described in a statistical approach by means of Photon Strength Functions and Level Density distributions. The study of electromagnetic cascades following ... -
A study of sertraline in dialysis (ASSertID) : a protocol for a pilot randomised controlled trial of drug treatment for depression in patients undergoing haemodialysis
(2015-10-26)BACKGROUND: The prevalence of depression in people receiving haemodialysis is high with estimates varying between 20 and 40 %. There is little research on the effectiveness of antidepressants in dialysis patients with the ... -
A Study of Shell Profiles
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1999)High signal to noise images have been obtained of a large sample of shell galaxies. We examine the photometric profiles of the shells of two galaxies from this sample at small and large radii in order to understand the ... -
Study of short-lived silver isotopes with a laser ion-source
(1995-03)A chemically selective laser ion source based on resonance ionization of atoms in a hot cavity has been applied for the study of short-lived silver isotopes at CERN/ISOLDE. Silver atoms were ionized by two resonant excitations ... -
A study of surface modifications of carbon nanotubes on the properties of polyamide 66/multiwalled carbon nanotube composites
(2013-10-29)The effects of surface modification of carbon nanotube on the properties of polyamide 66/multiwalled carbon nanotube composites have been investigated. Polyamide 66 (PA66) and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) composites ... -
