Electrophysiological evidence for the effectiveness of images versus text in warnings
2023
AbstractWarning sign plays an important role in risk avoidance. Many studies have found that images are better warnings than text, while others have revealed flaws of image-only warning signs. To better understand the factors underlying the effectiveness of different types of warning signs (image only, text only, or image and text), this study adopted event-related potential technology to explore the differences at the neurocognitive level using the oddball paradigm and the Go/No-go paradigm. Together, the behavioral and electroencephalogram results showed that text-only warnings had the lowest effectiveness, but there was little difference between the image-only and image-and-text warnings…
Correlations between Reading Disabilities and Learning Disabilities
2015
The article is devoted to reveal correlations between reading disabilities and learning disabilities. These problems need to be explained and teachers need to have reasonable solutions. Number of school-children with learning disabilities is increasing and teacher is not able to find the best and most precise ways of diagnostics and treatment/intervention. Causes of learning disabilities are different: brain damage or distorted functioning of it; auditory or visual perception and operating problems; language acquisition or processing problems etc. Symptoms are mostly noticed in the main areas – reading, writing and mathematics. Reading disabilities are one of the most obvious and serious pr…
Recognizing Early warning Signs in Transportation Services
2018
The transport services can vary in complexity, and can be carried out in short or long supply chains. Market observations indicate that logistics services including transport service become increasingly sophisticated, by far exceeding their traditional perception. They begin to resemble projects characterized by singularity, uniqueness, temporariness, limited budget, and, occasionally, innovativeness. Therefore, they are often treated as a specific type of projects, called logistics projects. The aim of the paper is to present the essence and characteristics of transportation services as a specific logistics project. Author characterizes the transportation service, with particular focus on …
