Validation

The two essays given for review are Similarities and Differences in the College Persistence of Men and Women, by Karen Leppel and Validation Experiences and Persistence among Community College Students, by Elisabeth A. Barnett. In reviewing essays to summarize, I found it difficult to find examples which addressed the middle of the middle class. Therefore, the essays which were chosen may provide increased understanding why some students do not continue higher education until completion.…

cost-effectiveness, for transparency, and for reporting of results. Data collection and recording on individual cases play a part in all of these (Kettner, 2012). There are three reasons to collect data; Validation, accountability and decision making as described below. Validation The main purpose of validation is to take the given data; measure and confirm that the components that are in place are effectively working and doing as it should by meeting the requirements as set out in the…

building the working counseling relationship with the client. This creates a nurturing and accepting environment for the client with benevolent demands for change. In the working phase, the therapist monitors the quality of the working alliance and use validation to acknowledge difficulties the client might have with the relationship. The goal is to teach the client to regulate emotions to reduce labile affect and impulsive behavior. Along with increasing interpersoanl effectiveness in personal…

to nursing, providing insight into a patient's mental, physical, and social health. This assessment allows a nurse to gather information on his or her patient, while instigating a honest and trusting patient-provider relationship. During my video validation this week, it sanctioned me to demonstrate my health assessment skills, while acquiring exerperience. The cue identifier for my head to toe assessment stood as gas exchange/patient cough, which required a focused pulmonary assessment.…

The fitness had been known by the k-fold cross validation (CV) technique in this study. In k-fold cross validation, the training data set is randomly splitted into K mutually exclusive subsets (folds) of approximately similar size. With a given set of parameters, the regression function had been built, using (K-1) subsets as the training…

Reserve Component 68W Sustainment The Army Reserve Component (RC) is, in general, required to meet the same training requirements of the Active Component (AC) but must do so with less time available. The RC must also be proficient in their Military Occupational Specialties (MOS) and remain qualified for those MOSs. Due to a lack of the necessary required training days needed to meet obligatory sustainment mandates, the RC is not as welled trained or proficient as they could be. This is…

Chapter-3 Diffie-Hellman, Seo and Tseng Protocol 3.1 Introduction Whitefield Diffie and Martin Hellman in 1976 had proposed key exchange or agreement algorithm. In this algorithm, the participants i.e. the sender and receiver have to agree on a symmetric key i.e. the same key or single key can be used for encryption as well as decryption. The key is only used for key agreement purpose, not for enciphering and deciphering the message. Once the agreement of key has been taken place between…

Tests need to be accurate (i.e. valid) for the researcher to know the test can be trusted. Tests have a concept or framework that guide what the test is supposed to measure. Construct-based validity evidence is used to measure to the degree that the test is measuring that construct. This type of validity has two subparts: discriminant validity and convergent validity. When constructs are not supposed to be related, discriminant validity checks to see if they are in fact unrelated. On the other…

The next essay I found to assist in evidential analysis was Validation Experiences and Persistence among Community College Students by Elisabeth A. Barnett. Barnett this research contributes to the understanding of college student departure decisions as they help determine factors related to persistence. Only 34% of all college students graduate with a degree from a two or four-year college. Only 3 out of 10 students who start at community colleges full-time graduate with an associate degree in…
