Some Mechanical Properties Of Polyvinylalcohol / Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles As Thin Films And Solutions by Najla Elgheryani

“…The flow time of the solutions was measured, then the viscosity was calculated and the surface tension of the solutions was measured by measuring the weight of the liquid drop. Solutions were left at room temperature to form thin films that were subjected to variable tension until they were cut and depending on the stress and strain of the samples. …”

Oral language elicitation tasks in applied linguistics research by Faitaki, F, Murphy, VA

“…The chapter will begin with a general discussion of comparisons between standardized assessments which tap into learners’ linguistic productive skills and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of using these against more bespoke measures – or measures that are used widely in various sub-fields of applied linguistics but are nonetheless not standardized assessments. …”

Handedness and specific language impairment: a study of 6-year-old twins by Bishop, D

“…The quantification of hand preference (QHP) measure, which measures persistence of a HP when reaching across the midline, did show weaker HP in those with SLI compared to the other two groups. …”
