The Emlen Scales: A Packet Of Scales For Measuring The Quality Of Child Care From A Parent's Point Of View, Arthur C. Emlen
Arthur C. Emlen
Presented and reviewed in a compendium of 35 sets of measures of quality of child care, published by Child Trends. The so-called “Emlen scales” are the only parent measures of childcare quality in the national compendium— assessments based on detailed perceptions of the care of their own child. The other 34 sets of measures are based on professional standards, observations, and ratings that have questionable relevance to the vast diversity of childcare arrangements. This document was prepared under Contract # HHSP233200500198U with the Administration for Children and Families, U S Department of Health and Human Services. Prepared for: Ivelisse Martinez-Beck, …
Spatial Symmetry Groups As Sensorimotor Guidelines, Gin Mccollum
Spatial Symmetry Groups As Sensorimotor Guidelines, Gin Mccollum
Gin McCollum
While some aspects of neuroanatomical organization are related to packing and access rather than to function, other aspects of anatomical/physiological organization are directly related to function. The mathematics of symmetry groups can be used to determine logical structure in projections and to relate it to function. This paper reviews two studies of the symmetry groups of vestibular projections that are related to the spatial functions of the vestibular complex, including gaze, posture, and movement. These logical structures have been determined by finding symmetry groups of two vestibular projections directly from physiological and anatomical data. Logical structures in vestibular projections are …
