Classifying individual differences in interoception: Implications for the measurement of interoceptive awareness by Murphy, J, Catmur, C, Bird, G

“…In this theoretical paper, we outline such a revision, highlighting a need to distinguish not only how interoception is measured (objective measures vs. self-report), but also what is measured (accuracy vs. attention). …”

Precision measurement of the 43Ca+ nuclear magnetic moment by Hanley, RK, Allcock, DTC, Harty, TP, Sepiol, MA, Lucas, DM

“…We measure a clock-transition frequency of f=3199941076.920(46)Hz from which we determine μI/μN=−1.315350(9)(1) where the uncertainty (9) arises from uncertainty in the hyperfine A constant, and the (1) arises from the uncertainty in our measurement. This measurement is not corrected for diamagnetic shielding due to the bound electrons. …”

Piezospectroscopic measurement of the stress field around an indentation crack tip in ruby using SEM cathodoluminescence by Todd, R, Stowe, D, Galloway, S, Barnes, D, Wilshaw, P

“…The spatial resolution of the stress measurements was measured as 550 nm and the effects of specimen heating by the electron beam were shown to be negligible. © 2008 Elsevier Ltd. …”

Measurement of double charmonium production in e(+)e(-) annihilations at root s=10.6 GeV by Aubert, B, Barate, R, Boutigny, D, Couderc, F, Karyotakis, Y, Lees, J, Poireau, V, Tisserand, V, Zghiche, A, Grauges, E, Palano, A, Pappagallo, M, Pompili, A, Chen, J, Qi, N, Rong, G, Wang, P, Zhu, Y, Eigen, G, Ofte, I, Stugu, B, Abrams, G, Battaglia, M, Breon, AB, Brown, D

“…We observe signals for ηc(1S), χc0, and ηc(2S) in the recoil mass distribution, thus confirming previous measurements. We measure σ(e+e-→J/ψ+cc̄)B(cc̄→>2charged) to be 17.6±2.8(stat)-2.1+1.5(syst)fb, 10.3±2.5(stat)-1.8+1.4(syst)fb, and 16.4±3.7(stat)-3.0+2.4(syst)fb with cc̄=ηc(1S), χc0, and ηc(2S), respectively. © 2005 The American Physical Society.…”

Measurement and calculated dose in breast phantom by Rahman, Siti Hajar Abdul

“…Inexact location of points of measurement during phantom's set up caused large deviation between the calculation and TLD measurement. TLD measurement and the calculation do not comply to ICRU recommendation.…”

Organisational support in knowledge transfer activities towards ERP success scale development and validation by Muallah, Nur Izzah, A. H., Nor Aziati

“…The study has adapted six stages of scale development and validation of measurement items according to legitimate measures. The measurement scales formed are based on literature review and field studies conducted to increase the reliability and validity values. …”

The Fifth International Workshop on Ice Nucleation phase 2 (FIN-02): laboratory intercomparison of ice nucleation measurements

“…For Argentinian soil dust particles, there was excellent agreement across all measurement methods; measures ranged within 1 order of magnitude for INP number concentrations, active fractions and calculated active site densities over a 25 to 30°C range and 5 to 8 orders of corresponding magnitude change in number concentrations. …”

High-damping and conducting epoxy nanocomposite using both zinc oxide particles and carbon nanofibers by Jae-Soon Jang, Gyo Woo Lee, Hyung-ick Kim, Sung Yong Hong, Lijie Ci, Jae-Do Nam, Jonghwan Suhr

“…The mechanical and electrical properties, electrical impedance, and loss factors were investigated by uniaxial tensile tests, voltage measurement, impedance measurement, and 3-point bending tests. Two percolation thresholds were found: the percolation threshold of resistivity due to the carbon nanofibers forming conductive networks in the matrix; and the impedance threshold due to the zinc oxide particles acting like electric barriers. …”

Effect of different moisture contents on the thermal properties of wood by Kotoulek Petr, Božiková Monika, Hlaváč Peter, Petrović Ana, Csillag Ján, Malínek Martin, Bilčík Matúš

“…The final results obtained represent the arithmetic means computed from ten sets of measurements. The measured relationship between the thermal conductivity and the mass specific heat of the wood samples was found to indicate an increasing trend, whereas the relationship between the thermal diffusivity and the moisture content of the wood samples showed a non-linear decreasing trend. …”
