A Meta-Analysis Of Job Analysis Reliability, Erich Dierdorff, Mark Wilson Dec 2002

A Meta-Analysis Of Job Analysis Reliability, Erich Dierdorff, Mark Wilson

Erich C. Dierdorff

Average levels of interrater and intrarater reliability for job analysis data were investigated using meta-analysis. Forty-six studies and 299 estimates of reliability were cumulated. Data were categorized by specificity (generalized work activity or task data), source (incumbents, analysts, or technical experts), and descriptive scale (frequency, importance, difficulty, time-spent, and the Position Analysis Questionnaire). Task data initially produced higher estimates of interrater reliability than generalized work activity data and lower estimates of intrarater reliability. When estimates were corrected for scale length and number of raters by using the Spearman-Brown formula, task data had higher interrater and intrarater reliabilities. Incumbents displayed the …

A Primer On Agricultural Communications For Student, Librarians And Researchers, Joseph Zumalt Dec 2002

A Primer On Agricultural Communications For Student, Librarians And Researchers, Joseph Zumalt

Joseph R. Zumalt

The article focuses on a primer on agricultural communications for student, librarians and researchers. Universities, libraries and librarians have served as partners to assist working professionals in all fields in agriculture. Universities have helped educate agriculture professionals. Universities have helped to create new knowledge. Libraries, especially at land grant institutions, have played a crucial role in disseminating this new knowledge and, increasingly, are seen as the logical place for archival activities, given the public nature of much of this knowledge. Universities and libraries have specifically played an important part in agricultural communications. While demographic changes in Western society, a switch …

Speech, Language, And Hearing Disorders In A University Clinic In Brazil, Joan Payne Dec 2002

Speech, Language, And Hearing Disorders In A University Clinic In Brazil, Joan Payne

Joan Payne

To date, few studies have described speech, language, or hearing disorders or services in South America. This investigation was conducted as an examination of nearly 5,000 clinical records from a 3-year period in a university speech, hearing, and language clinic at the Universidade Tuiuti do Paraná in Curitiba, Brazil. The findings document that hearing loss from middle ear and sensorineural pathologies was the predominant communication disorder (N=4,728). Speech and language disorders from a variety of causes were diagnosed and treated in a small percentage of the client population (n=194). This is in sharp contrast to many of the client populations …

Why Model Landscapes At The Level Of Households And Fields?, Jerome K. Vanclay Dec 2002

Why Model Landscapes At The Level Of Households And Fields?, Jerome K. Vanclay

Professor Jerome K Vanclay

Sustainable resource management relies upon many disciplines and deals with complex interactions at the landscape scale. Many of the issues at the landscape scale arise from decisions taken at the household level and affect land use in fields and in small patches of forest. Spatially-explicit modelling of these units is desirable because it enables rigorous testing of model predictions, and thus of underlying propositions. The greatest insights may be obtained by participatory modelling of these processes as we understand them. Despite this, few models simulate dynamics at the household and field level. FLORES, the Forest Land Oriented Resource Envisioning System, …

Our Mongrel Selves: Pluralism, Identity And The Nation, Brian Slattery Dec 2002

Our Mongrel Selves: Pluralism, Identity And The Nation, Brian Slattery

Brian Slattery

This paper examines the view that ‘nations’ are natural entities, composed of homogeneous linguistic and cultural groups, and argues that this theory fails to take account of our multiple and overlapping identities.
