For example, the level of improvement noted in a recent experiment with a short course of immediate treatment for parent-child relationship problems compared favorably with the results reported by typical child guidance clinics where the hours spent in purely diagnostic study may equal or exceed the number of hours devoted to actual treatment interviews in the experimental project.

F. Phillip Bowden and David Tabor ( 1950 ) showed that at a microscopic level, the actual area of contact between surfaces is a very small fraction of the apparent area.

Ramaprasad ( 1983 ) defines feedback generally as " information about the gap between the actual level and the reference level of a system parameter which is used to alter the gap in some way ", emphasising that the information by itself is not feedback unless translated into action.

Whatever strategy is used ( simple or mutual ), the level of protection strongly depends on the correctness of the implementation of the web browser and the server software and the actual cryptographic algorithms supported.

The notion of the zone of proximal development that he introduced in 1933, roughly a year before his death, served as the banner for his proposal to diagnose development as the level of actual development that can be measured by the child's independent problem solving and, at the same time, the level of proximal, or potential development that is measured in the situation of moderately assisted problem solving by the child.

Then, the difference between the higher level of potential and the lower level of actual development indicates the zone of proximal development.

Combination of the two indexesthe level of actual and the zone of the proximal developmentaccording to Vygotsky, provides a significantly more informative indicator of psychological development than the assessment of the level of actual development alone.

While all scholars acknowledge that there is a large mythological part of the narrative some maintain that by using a critical comparative method some level of historicity can be salvaged from the sources, whereas others maintain that continued analysis of the narratives as sources of actual history is futile and hinders access to actual knowledge of the culture of Tula, Hidalgo.

Most researchers of the subject at the time used the perceived light of a dim phosphorescent surface as " detectors ", although work in the period clearly showed the change in brightness to be a physiological phenomenon rather than some actual change in the level of illumination.

This organization established central and bureaucratic insurance offices on the Federal, and in some cases the State level to perform the actual administration.

Some U. S. states and provinces of Canada such as Alberta operate " owner liability " where it is the registered owner of the vehicle who must pay all such fines regardless of whether he was driving at the time of the offense, although they do release the owner from liability if he signs a form identifying the actual driver and that individual pays the fine.

E. P. Deraniyagala points out that the Sinhala term for gun, ‘ bondikula ’ matches the Arabic term for gun, ‘ bunduk .’ Also that certain technical aspects of the early Sinhalese matchlock were similar to the matchlocks used in the Middle East, thus forming the generally accepted theory that the musket was not entirely new to the island by the time the Portuguese came, but it was only in a short matter of time that native Sri Lankan kingdoms, most notably the kingdom of Sitawaka and the Kandyan Kingdom where Sinhalese muskets with a unique bifurcated stock, longer barrel and smaller calibre, which made it more efficient in driving out the energy from the gunpowder, where manufactured by the hundreds and mastered by soldiers to the point where according to the Portuguese invader, Queyroz, they could " fire at night to put out a match " and " by day at 60 paces would sever a knife with four or five bullets " and " send as many on the same spot in the target.

While it has to be maintained by changes in the mass distribution or angular momentum of the Earth's outer core, atmosphere, oceans, or crust ( from earthquakes ), for a long time the actual source was unclear, since no available motions seemed to be coherent with what was driving the wobble.

A more valid way of assessing driving skills would be through a combination of tests that help determine what a driver knows, such as through a written test of driving knowledge, and what a driver is able to do, such as through a performance assessment of actual driving.

Convictions do not necessarily involve actual driving of the vehicle.

Careful investigation of the film furthermore shows, that the actual driving speed was not that high.

As much of the driving force at the early organizing of the MST came from Catholic base communities, much of the MST ideology and actual practice are rooted on the principle, taken from the social doctrine of the Catholic Church, that private property should serve a social function-a principle developed during the 19th century, and made into Catholic official doctrine since Pope Leo XIII's Rerum Novarum encyclical ; on the eve of the 1964 military coup, that was the principle evoked by President João Goulart in his famous " Central rally " ( a mammoth rally held in Rio de Janeiro, near to the city's greatest railroad station, where the president made a speech offering a blueprint for various political and social reforms ) when proposing the expropriation of estates of more than 600 hectares in area situated at the vicinity of federal facilities ( roads, railroads and reservatoirs as well as sanitation works )- a move that triggered the strong conservative resistance leading to Goulart's downfall.

Scores derived by classical test theory do not have this characteristic, and assessment of actual ability ( rather than ability relative to other test-takers ) must be assessed by comparing scores to those of a " norm group " randomly selected from the population.

What can make PTS difficult to diagnose is the fact that symptoms can often first appear long after the actual cause of the syrinx occurred, e. g. a car accident occurring and then the patient first experiencing PTS symptoms such as pain, loss of sensation, reduced ability on the skin to feel varying degrees of hot and cold, a number of months after car accident.

The claim that God is omnipotent is, after all, a claim about what is possible, about what God has the ability to do, not about what is actual.

An extension to BGP is the use of Multipathing-this typically requires identical MED, weight, origin and AS-path although some implementations provide the ability to relax the AS-path checking to only expect an equal path length rather than the actual AS numbers in the path being expected to match too.

By instead comparing the radiated power in a given direction to the actual power that the antenna receives from the transmitter, the power gain takes into account that poorer efficiency, making it a more useful figure of merit for the ability of a transmitter in sending a radio wave toward a receiver.

Except of the much higher magnification and good versatility, an electron microscope with a cathodoluminescence detector will be more complicated and more expensive compared to an easy to use optical cathodoluminescence microscope which benefits from its ability to show actual visible color features immediately through the eyepiece.

Hamilton later modified his thinking to suggest that an innate ability to recognise actual genetic relatedness would be unlikely to be the dominant mediating mechanism for kin altruism ( see also kin recognition ):

The cognitive refers to the actual processing of the stimuli, studies regarding this showed that the ability to process stimuli decreased with age, meaning that younger people were able to perceive more stimuli and fully process them, but were likely to process both relevant and irrelevant information, while older people could process fewer stimuli, but usually processed only relevant information.
