A Pilot Study on Offensive Success in Soccer Based on Space and Ball Control – Key Performance Indicators and Key to Understand Game Dynamics
2017
Abstract The intention of Key Performance Indicators (KPI) is to map complex system-behaviour to single values for scaling, rating and ranking systems or system components. Very often, however, this mapping only reduces important information about tactical behaviour or playing dynamics without replacing it by useful ones. The presented approach tries to bridge the gap between complex dynamics and numerical indicators in the case of offensive effectiveness in soccer in two steps. First, a model is developed which visualises offensive actions in a process-oriented way by using information units to represent offensive performance – i.e. Key Performance Indicators. Second, this model is organis…
UiA Accelerated Life Time Bearing Test Rig – Test 1, 250 rpm
2020
Vibration data from an accelerated lifetime test of a bearing. Contains raw vibration data and shaft position data. The mean shaft speed is 250 rpm. Can be used for fault diagnosis and remaining useful lifetime estimation. Please see "00_ReadMe.pdf" file for more details. Update - 3 January 2022: This dataset is now updated to use floating point values for shaft position data, which gives a much more accurate description of the shaft position.
UiA Accelerated Life Time Bearing Test Rig – Test 3, Variable speed around 50rpm
2021
Vibration data from an accelerated lifetime test of a bearing. Contains raw vibration data and shaft position data. The mean shaft speed is 50rpm with a variation +- 40 rpm. Can be used for fault diagnosis and remaining useful lifetime estimation. Please see "00_ReadMe.pdf" file for more details.
On the convergent validity of two Parental Rearing Behaviour Scales: EIIBU and PBI
1999
The EMBU and PBI are two of the most used Parental Rearing Behaviour questionnaires. The literature assumes a high correlation between homonymous and assimilable factors (PBI Care and EMBU Affectional Warmth, PBI Control and EMBU Overprotection). Using a sample of 796 subjects the authors carried out the joint application of both scales in order to determine their concurrent validity. The correlation obtained between the scales barely reaches significance on average levels of correlation. The same can be deduced for the applied Multidimensional Scaling. In conclusion, the most extreme precaution is recommended when considering the homonymous scales of both questionnaires, and their joint us…
Pure-Tone Thresholds, Speech Understanding, and Their Correlates in Samples of Men of Different Ages1
1986
Pure-tone thresholds and speech understanding were studied in three samples of men of different ages (31-35, 51-55 and 71-75 years). The air-conducted pure-tone thresholds were measured at 125-8,000 Hz and speech understanding by the help of interrupted and masked speech tests. The audiological measures were related to measures of other sensory functions, psychomotor speed, cognitive functions, psychic well-being, occupational and educational background and health. The results indicated a clear decrement in all audiological measures when proceeding from younger to older age groups. The results of the speech-understanding tests correlated significantly with the pure-tone thresholds both at 4…
Cognitive Functioning of the Prelingually Deaf Adults
2014
Deafness is a model of brain adaptation to sensory deprivation which entails psychomotor and cognitive domains. This study seeks to determine the level of emotional intelligence, assessed from the ability to discern emotions from facial expressions, visual and mental attention, and non-verbal fluency in the deaf people as compared with the hearing counterparts. Participants were 29 prelingually deaf, hearing loss of >70 dB, communicating only in sign language, and 30 hearing persons. The age range of all subjects was 40–50 years. Psychometric tools consisted of the Emotional Intelligence Scale-Faces, the d2 Test of Attention, and the Figural Fluency Test. Data elaboration took gender into a…

Audiological Investigation of Otitis Media in Children with Atopy
2011
Otitis media (OM) describes an inflammatory process within the middle ear space that is generally associated with accumulation of fluid and that may lead to hearing loss, learning difficulties, and delays in language development. The pathogenesis of OM is multifactorial, involving the adaptive and native immune system, eustachian tube dysfunction, viral and bacterial load, and genetic and environmental factors. The involvement of IgE-mediated allergic reactions in the pathogenesis of OM has been suggested by clinical observations of a high prevalence of OM among patients with allergies. Evidence from studies involving tympanometric measurements, audiometric measurements, and otoscopic exami…
Qualitative analysis of team interaction in games by means of the load-performance-metamodel PerPot.
2006
Observation of team behaviour in games shows rather inhomogeneous distributions of the levels of activity and effectiveness along the game. It is to expect, of course, that even for a high level team a phase of great effort is followed by a phase of reduced activities, while the opponent team is increasing its pressure. The result could be thought to be something like a rhythmic change, where the maximum activities of the one team correspond to the minimum ones of the other team.However, as we got from handball data that Martin Lames from the University of Ulm/Germany recorded last year (private correspondence), the correspondences can be much more difficult and varying: Lames measured the …
Early DEtection of wEaring off in Parkinson disease: The DEEP study
2014
Assessing the frequency of Wearing-Off (WO) in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients, and its impact on Quality of Life (QoL). METHODS: Consecutive ambulatory patients, who were on dopaminergic treatment for ≥ 1 year, were included in this multicentre, observational cross-sectional study. In a single visit, WO was diagnosed based on neurologist assessment as well as using the validated Italian version of a patient self-rated 19-question Wearing-Off Questionnaire (WOQ-19); WO was defined for scores ≥ 2. QoL was evaluated by the 8-item Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire (PDQ-8). RESULTS: 617 subjects were included, with a mean anti-Parkinson treatment duration of 6.6 ± 4.6 years, 87.2% were on lev…
