The Paradox of Roles, in which an evaluator is conflicted by being both peer and the judge ; the Paradox of Group Performance, which admits that the vast majority of work done in a corporate setting is done in groups, not individually ; the Measurement Paradox, which shows that qualitative, or in-person techniques are much more effective in facilitating change ; and the Paradox of Rewards, which shows that individuals evaluating their peers care more about the rewards associated with finishing the task than the actual content of the evaluation itself.

Measurement and recording techniques which are not primarily designed to produce images, such as electroencephalography ( EEG ), magnetoencephalography ( MEG ), electrocardiography ( EKG ), and others, but which produce data susceptible to be represented as maps ( i. e., containing positional information ), can be seen as forms of medical imaging.

He wrote The Measurement of Intelligence: An Explanation of and a Complete Guide for the Use of the Stanford Revision and Extension of the Binet-Simon Intelligence Scale, which provided English translations for the French items as well as new items.

* 30 Test and Measurement Equipment Glossaries-Organized by equipment type, this helps people learn new pieces of equipment faster than alphabetically organized glossaries which require clicking back and forth between pages.

Tonnage measurements are now governed by an IMO Convention ( International Convention on Tonnage Measurement of Ships, 1969 ( London-Rules )), which applies to all ships built after July 1982.

Measurement of periodic variations of these active regions can also be used to deduce the rotation periods of these stars.

Measurement of the weight is the easiest, and bullets that are out of round can be detected by rotating the bullet while measuring with a micrometer.

Measurement of birefringence can be achieved using cross polarisers in a microscope to obtain an image of e. g. vesicle walls or using techniques such as dual polarisation interferometry to quantify lipid order or disruption in supported bilayers.

Measurement of pH for aqueous solutions can be done with a glass electrode and a pH meter, or using indicators.

Measurement can interact with the system state in somewhat peculiar ways, as is illustrated by the double-slit experiment.

The expectation value of the measurement can be calculated by extending from the case of pure states ( see Measurement in quantum mechanics ):

Measurement can be affected ( usually overestimated ) by leaks in the breathing circuit or the introduction of additional gas, for example during the introduction of nebulized drugs.

Measurement of tonnage can be less than straightforward, not least because it is used to assess fees on commercial shipping.
