Namba, Seiichiro, Sonoko Kuwano, Tadasu Hatoh et Mariko Kato. « Assessment of Musical Performance by Using the Method of Continuous Judgment by Selected Description ». Music Perception 8, no 3 (1991) : 251–75. http://dx.doi.org/10.2307/40285502.
Texte intégralRésumé :
Newly developed methods for evaluating subjective impressions of musical performances are introduced. Performances of the Promenades in "Pictures at an Exhibition," played by three musicians, were used as stimuli. In Experiment 1, the impressions of each performance were judged by the method of selected description. Three major factors concerning adjectives used to describe the subjective impression of musical performances became apparent. These were "dynamics," "tranquility," and "sadness." In Experiment 2, instantaneous impressions were judged by the method of continuous judgment by selected description, and its relation to the overall impression was examined.

Ding, Xiuling, Qian Lu, Lipeng Li, Apurbo Sarkar et Hua Li. « Evaluating the Impact of Institutional Performance and Government Trust on Farmers’ Subjective Well-Being : A Case of Urban–Rural Welfare Gap Perception and Family Economic Status in Shaanxi, Sichuan and Anhui, China ». International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health 20, no 1 (30 décembre 2022) : 710. http://dx.doi.org/10.3390/ijerph20010710.
Texte intégralRésumé :
In the modern world, fostering comprehensive social sustainability has become one of the major concerns. Interestingly, rural livelihood may significantly comprise the compelling performance evaluations of governmental institutions’ performances. Governmental institutions’ performances in rural areas largely depend on whether they can gain relatively higher trust levels of marginal farmers. However, the critical interaction between these two prospects may foster farmers’ subjective well-being (SWB). Therefore, the study aims to model and test institutional performance, government trust, and farmers’ subjective well-being by utilising a survey of data from 963 farmer households in Shaanxi, Sichuan, and Anhui provinces, China. We have adopted structural equation modelling (SEM) to craft the study’s findings. However, in the literature, political performance is widely quantified by the urban–rural welfare and economic status gap; thus, in the core model, we have incorporated and measured the mediating role of the urban–rural welfare gap and household economic status. The results show that institutional performance, social insurance performance, and ecological livability performance have a significant and positive impact on institutional performance and government trust and eventually derive farmers’ SWB. However, the role of environmental livability performance is more substantial than social insurance performance in quantifying governmental trust and institutional performance. Moreover, it has a significant positive impact on the subjective well-being of farmers, and the effect of policy trust is not substantial. The results of further mediation and moderation effects show that social insurance performance and ecological livability performance can enhance the subjective well-being of farmers through the indirect transmission of institutional trust. In contrast, the mediating impact of policy trust is not significant. For farmers with higher economic status, institutional performance has a more substantial effect on the subjective well-being of farmers with a relatively smaller perception of the urban–rural welfare gap and lower family economic status.

Suh, Minji, et Hyunjoo Choi. « Relationship among the Performances of Subjective Memory, Objective Memory, and Naming in Healthy Elderly Adults ». Audiology and Speech Research 18, no 3 (31 juillet 2022) : 183–90. http://dx.doi.org/10.21848/asr.210032.
Texte intégralRésumé :
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to identify relationships performances among subjective memory, objective memory, and naming of healthy elderly adults. Methods: A total of 77 healthy elderly adults aged 65 or older in South Korea participated in this study. Subjective Memory Complaints Questionnaire was used to evaluate the subjective memory loss of the elderly, and the Seoul Verbal Learning Test was used to evaluate objective memory. The Korean version of Boston Naming Test was used as a confrontation naming task and Controlled Oral Word Association Test was used as a generative naming task. Results: First, the subjective memory and objective memory of the healthy elderly adults showed a significant correlation, and the naming performances of the healthy elderly adults showed a significant correlation with the recall ability of the objective memory. In addition, it could be seen that the ‘supermarket’ category of the generative naming was a task that reflected both subjective and objective memory of the general elderly. Conclusion: The results of this study are meaningful in that they have identified the usefulness of subjective memory reporting at clinical sites and in that they have presented basic data on the subjective·objective memory and the naming performances of healthy elderly adults.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The intelligence community (IC) makes large investments on information systems development every year. However, there is a lack of studies that evaluate their system success. This study looks into the interactions between user satisfaction and subjective and objective user performance within the IC. It differs from the previous research by having both subjective and objective measures constructed from the end-user computing satisfaction (EUCS) survey responses and system-recorded data from a multinational intelligence sharing system called Conjunctis Viribus. It generates several key findings. First, only self-rated performance is closely related to user satisfaction. Second, the subjective and objective user performances have close connections to the frequency of system use. Finally, while individual differences have positive influences on self-rated user performance, the user satisfaction is not subjective to such influences. Besides the theoretical contributions, this study also has tremendous implications to the design and use of future intelligence systems.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Evaluating the health level of vehicles usually involves several factors and often needs to introduce subjective information. This paper presents an approach to combine several performance measures into a composite index for health evaluation. A mathematical method is proposed to estimate the overall performances of vehicles based on the observed performances under multiple measures or criteria. The approach is illustrated using a real-world example.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The use of technology to color classic black and white movies has been controversial. Prior research has suggested that coloring adds to subjects' evaluation of a television episode. The present study examined whether college subjects (26 men, 60 women) evaluated a colorized movie differently from its original black and white version. As no differences were found, it was concluded that colorization may add to a marginally good performance, but its effect on outstanding movies and performances is minimal.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The present mixed-methods study examined the role of learner appraisals of speech tasks in second language (L2) French fluency. Forty adult learners in a Canadian immersion program participated in the study that compared four sources of data: (1) objectively measured utterance fluency in participants’ performances of three narrative tasks differing in their conceptualization and formulation demands, (2) a questionnaire on their interest, task-related anxiety, task motivation, and perceived success in task-completion, (3) an interview in which they elaborated on their perceptions of the tasks, and (4) subjective ratings of their performances by three native speakers. Findings showed the cognitive demands of tasks were associated with learners’ affective responses to tasks as well as objective and subjective measures of fluency. Furthermore, task-related anxiety and perceived success in task completion were the most important affective factors associated with fluent task performance, whereas interest and task motivation were correlated with native speakers’ fluency ratings. These results are discussed in terms of how task design and implementation can contribute to enhanced task motivation and performance in the classroom.

Texte intégralRésumé :
This experiment had two purposes. First, it attempted to replicate the easy-to-hard prediction for residual capacity described by Lansman and Hunt (1982) for two complex task combinations. Second, it examined the relation between individual differences in resource capacity, as indicated by the easy-to-hard prediction, and the subjective experience of workload. One task combination involved a verbal-memory task paired with a vowel-consonant classification task. The other combination involved a paired-associate task with a name-classification task. The easy-to-hard prediction was not replicated for either task combination; easy primary task performance provided a better prediction of hard primary task performances than did secondary task performance. Measures of residual capacity were not related to subjective ratings of workload, however, the workload scales were sensitive to between-task differences.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Purpose: Cognitive-communication intervention for subjective cognitive decline (SCD) is based on the profile of task performances. The purpose of this study was to identify performances in cognitive-communication and quality of life, to provide the correlation and predictive tasks of communication among subjects with SCD.Methods: SCD group (n = 19) aged 65 and over performed subtasks for the 3 domains, compared with other amnestic mild cognitive impairment (n = 22) and control (n = 24) groups.Results: The main outcomes were as follows. Firstly, the SCD and other two groups had significant differences in performances of executive function (planning/activating) and subjective communication. Secondly, semantic performances in the SCD group were significantly correlated with all cognitive tasks, and reasoning was the strongest predictor of communication. Lastly, discourse had significant correlations with all cognitive tasks in the SCD group. Reasoning (deductive/inductive) and executive function (planning) were also found to be the best predictors of communication.Conclusion: Current study provides a cognitive-communication profile to reduce the risk to develop neurological disease. These results also facilitate the preventive intervention for SCD, warranting its effect.

Ayodeji, Idowu, et Oluwafemi Abiodun. « The Effect of Rivalry on Sport Performance ». Sports Innovation Journal 5 (9 juillet 2024) : 61–77. http://dx.doi.org/10.18060/27691.
Texte intégralRésumé :
The motivation to outperform rivals can lead to sport innovation, creativity, and improved performance. Sport literature already affirms that rivalry leads to better team performance; however, empirical evidence to support the claim for individual performance is scarce. This study examines the effect of the Cristiano Ronaldo-Lionel Messi rivalry on their performances during their stay in Europe. We measured performance using non-subjective metrics such as number of goals, appearances, and assists. We also controlled for their years of professional experience as this is expected to be reflected in their performances. Data were analyzed using multivariate analysis of covariance. Empirical results confirmed the positive effect of rivalry on their average performances, and this effect size was similar. We also found evidence that years of experience did not significantly affect Messi’s performance. The study concludes that individual rivalry has a significant positive effect on performance of athletes.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Objectives: The frequency of the ‘tip of the tongue (TOT) phenomenon’, a condition in which a person feels they know a target word but cannot recall its name, increases with aging. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships among the TOT phenomenon, common noun naming, and memory.Methods: Eighty-eight healthy elderly adults participated in the study. The study used a TOT phenomenon task (celebrity naming test), common noun naming tasks (confrontational naming and generative naming), and subjective and objective memory tasks.Results: First, there were significant correlations among the total score of the confrontation naming test, the performances of generative naming test, and the TOT rate. Second, the voluntary TOT solution rate was not significantly related to performance on the common noun naming test. However, the TOT solution rate after syllable cues was significantly correlated with the performance of the confrontation naming test, the correct response rate after syllabic cues, and the phonemic category of the generative naming test. Third, the performances of subjective and objective memory were significantly correlated with the TOT rate. Fourth, the voluntary TOT solution rate was correlated with the delayed recall of objective memory, while the TOT solution rate after syllable cues was only correlated with subjective memory. Finally, regression analyses showed that confrontation naming, delayed recall, and recognition influenced the TOT rate.Conclusion: The clinical significance of this study is that it examined the relationships among the TOT phenomenon, common noun naming, and memory in healthy elderly adults.

Texte intégralRésumé :
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics of field and on-ice performances of ice-hockey players and the relationship of performance with subjective joint pain and dysfunction.METHODS A total of 25 male college icehockey players were evaluated for 19 items of performance. Pain and dysfunctions in the lower extremities and lower back were confirmed through the Foot and Ankle Outcome Score, Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, Hip Dysfunction and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, and Osweatry Disability Index questionnaire. Players with similar performance characteristics were classified through a cluster analysis, and differences in performance and patient-reported outcomes between clusters were analyzed with a one-way analysis of variance.RESULTS The ice-hockey players were classified into “lower muscular strength and performance (cluster 1),” “lower cardiorespiratory endurance (cluster 2),” and “high muscular strength and performance (cluster 3).” Players in cluster 1 had more frequent ankle and knee joint dysfunctions and pain compared to those in cluster 3. Several performance test items affected the subjective joint score, and the related performance items were more in the proximal joint than in the distal joint.CONCLUSIONS Ice hockey players should perform training to supplement their individual lack of on-ice and field performance. Since performance may be limited because of joint dysfunction and pain, a joint-specific intervention strategy should be applied to improve physical and athletic performances.

Texte intégralRésumé :
ABSTRACTBackground:Cognitive complaints occur frequently in elderly people and may be a risk factor for dementia and cognitive decline. Results from studies on subjective cognitive decline are difficult to compare due to variability in assessment methods, and little is known about how different methods influence reports of cognitive decline.Methods:The Subjective Memory Complaints Scale (SMC) and The Memory Complaint Questionnaire (MAC-Q) were applied in 121 mixed memory clinic patients with mild cognitive symptoms (mean MMSE = 26.8, SD 2.7). The scales were applied independently and raters were blinded to results from the other scale. Scales were not used for diagnostic classification. Cognitive performances and depressive symptoms were also rated. We studied the association between the two measures and investigated the scales’ relation to depressive symptoms, age, and cognitive status.Results:SMC and MAC-Q were significantly associated (r = 0.44, N = 121, p = 0.015) and both scales had a wide range of scores. In this mixed cohort of patients, younger age was associated with higher SMC scores. There were no significant correlations between cognitive test performances and scales measuring subjective decline. Depression scores were significantly correlated to both scales measuring subjective decline. Linear regression models showed that age did not have a significant contribution to the variance in subjective memory beyond that of depressive symptoms.Conclusions:Measures for subjective cognitive decline are not interchangeable when used in memory clinics and the application of different scales in previous studies is an important factor as to why studies show variability in the association between subjective cognitive decline and background data and/or clinical results. Careful consideration should be taken as to which questions are relevant and have validity when operationalizing subjective cognitive decline.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Olfactory stimuli are used in aromatherapy to enhance mood, well-being and work efficiency. Nevertheless, the impact of fragrances on cognitive performance in humans is not well understood. The present investigation aimed to evaluate the effects of 1,8-cineol, jasmine absolute ether, linalyl acetate and peppermint essential oil on human vigilance performance. The odorants were administered by means of inhalation and, except for peppermint essential oil, were tested at 2 different dosages. Performance in a standard visual vigilance task was measured in terms of speed and accuracy and subjective ratings of the odorants were assessed in terms of pleasantness, intensity, arousal and stress. We hypothesized that 1,8-cineol, jasmine absolute ether and peppermint essential oil would improve vigilance performance, whereas linalyl acetate would impair such performance. Comparison of the performances of the seven independent experimental groups with that of a control group did not show any of the expected effects. In contrast, inhalation of linalyl acetate decreased reaction times. Within-group analyses, however, revealed significant interactions between subjective ratings of the odorants and task performance. The results of the present investigation emphasize the high impact of subjective factors on the modulation of attentional functions by olfactory stimuli in humans.

ABSTRACT This essay first reflects on key ideas that currently shape critical conversations about how the materiality of performance engages an embodied, material sense of spirit and matter. Two hypothetical case studies, based on fieldwork, then illustrate a nuance in that discussion that suggests critical attention to another key idea: the variability of performative effects and subjective affect in spiritually-oriented performances.

Texte intégralRésumé :
In this study, wet wipes were produced for body applications with nonwoven fabrics consisting of polyester and cellulose (viscose and Tencel®). Fabrics were wetted by natural-based wetting solutions (rose water, olive oil) which were functionalized by sodium alginate and natural antibacterial agents (cinnamaldehyde and geraniol) without preservatives. Besides physical characteristics (weight, thickness, porosity, fiber orientation), bending rigidity, Handle-O-Meter measurements, and moisture management test parameters of the nonwoven fabrics were determined. Subjective hand and wiping performances of produced wipes were determined by subjective evaluations carried out on 10 female subjects. According to the results, 100% Tencel® and its blend with viscose have good absorption and moderate transfer characteristics. Polyester content up to 60% is acceptable for wet wipes for the body according to their liquid absorption, transfer, and subjective evaluation results if fabric weight is sufficient. Among the functionalized wetting solutions, antibacterial performance of the solution including olive oil, sodium alginate and cinnamaldehyde was the maximum and it has acceptable hand values according to objective Handle-O-Meter results and subjective evaluation results.

Texte intégralRésumé :
This study’s purpose was to evaluate the unique contributions of self-, other-, and collective constructs in the efficacy–performance reciprocal relationship for athlete dyads involving low- and high-dependence roles. Data were obtained from 74 intact cheerleading pairs on self-, other-, and collective efficacy and subjective performance evaluations for each of 5 successive trials. Objective assessments of dyad performances were obtained from digital recordings. Across path models involving a single efficacy construct, similar reciprocal relationships between objective dyad performance and self-, other-, or collective efficacy were observed. In path models composed of multiple efficacy or performance constructs, unique efficacy contributions were observed in the prediction of objective dyad performance, and unique subjective performance contributions were observed in the prediction of efficacy beliefs. Partner effects were observed more often for athletes in the high-dependence role than for those in the low-dependence role. Findings support how self-, other-, and collective beliefs are processed by team athletes.

Texte intégralRésumé :
This research study has twofold objectives, first to explore in depth knowledge base view of banks’ professionals regarding the adoption of intellectual capital practices (i.e. human capital, structural capital and relational capital) and second to get know professionals subjective opinions about importance of such practices to obtain sustainable performances of banks in a competitive environment. Based on interpretive phenomenological approach (IPA) the study provides multidimensional realistic implications for top management echelons in banking industry and for future academic researchers. The findings of study reveals that intellectual capital practices are deeply addressed by banks’ professionals. Banks are penetrating regarding the human capital (HC), structural capital (SC) and relational capital (RC) practices to build competitiveness through market share and profitability. Learning and education, employee’s experience and expertise and their innovative and creative abilities are very key constructs of human capital. The study explores fore-mentioned abilities provide substantial contribution for banks’ performance in the shape of market share and profitability. The study presents the subjective opinion of twelve participants from a geographical area (Lahore) however more sample size will provide the parsimonious picture about IC awareness and its implementations to link it with banks’ performances.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Abstract In recent years we have interviewed members of the audience after musical performances and asked them to evaluate the acoustics of the concert halls. A group of ‘music lovers’ (with a high level of musical training and experience) and ‘acousticians’ (with a wide knowledge of the physical characteristics of sound transmission) also attended each performance and answered the same questions as the general public. This group thereby served as a control group when evaluating surveys of the general public. In this paper, the results obtained when analyzing these control group surveys are presented. This analysis shows that a common vocabulary exists between music lovers and acousticians when rating a hall, although the grouping of the questions for each factor depends on the training of the respondents.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Recently, Vuoskoski, Thompson, Clarke, and Spence (2014) demonstrated that visual kinematic performance cues may be more important than auditory performance cues in terms of observers’ ratings of expressivity perceived in audiovisual excerpts of piano playing, and that visual kinematic performance cues had crossmodal effects on the perception of auditory expressivity. The present study was designed to extend these findings, and to provide additional information about the roles of sight and sound in the perception and experience of musical performance. Experiment 1 investigated the relative contributions of auditory and visual kinematic performance features to participants’ subjective emotional reactions evoked by piano performances, while Experiment 2 was designed to explore the effect of visual kinematic cues on the perception of loudness and tempo variability. Experiment 1 revealed that visual performance cues seem to be just as important as auditory performance cues in terms of the subjective emotional reaction of the observer, thus highlighting the importance of non-auditory cues for music-induced emotions. The results of Experiment 2 revealed that visual kinematic cues only affected ratings of loudness variability, but not ratings of tempo variability.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The purpose of this study was to investigate the home advantage in female collegiate Division I gymnastics by apparatus and determine the performance effect of the Judges’ Assignor System (JAS) introduced in 2005 on each apparatus. Participant teams (N = 15) were selected based on their ranking in the top 25 nationally at the end of each regular season from 2003 to 2007. A repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) revealed home scores for each apparatus were significantly higher than their respective away scores, with the largest differences occurring in the uneven bars and floor exercise. Additionally, a repeated measures ANOVA to assess the JAS impact on scores revealed that home performances yielded higher scores than away for all apparatus, and scores for all apparatus were lower both at home and away since the introduction of JAS. Results are assessed based on current research, and application for judges and coaches is discussed.

DeBakey. « 10 The Impact of Performance and Symptom Invalidity on Relationships Between Subjective and Objective Cognitive Functioning ». Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society 29, s1 (novembre 2023) : 694–95. http://dx.doi.org/10.1017/s1355617723008688.
Texte intégralRésumé :
Objective:Inconsistent relationships between subjective and objective performance have been found across various clinical groups. Discrepancies in these relationships across studies have been attributed to various factors such as patient characteristics (e.g., level of insight associated with cognitive impairment) and test characteristics (e.g., using too few measures to assess different cognitive domains). Although performance and symptom invalidity are common in clinical and research settings and have the potential to impact responding on testing, previous studies have not explored the role of performance and symptom invalidity on relationships between objective and subjective performance. Therefore, the current study examined the impact of invalidity on performance and symptom validity tests (PVTs and SVTs, respectively) on the relationship between subjective and objective cognitive functioning.Participants and Methods:Data were obtained from 299 Veterans (77.6% male, mean age of 48.8 years (SD = 13.5)) assessed in a VA medical center epilepsy monitoring unit from 2008-2018. Participants completed a measure of subjective functioning (i.e., the Patient Competency Rating Scale), PVTs (i.e., Word Memory Test, Test of Memory Malingering, Reliable Digit Span), SVTs (i.e., Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2-Restructured Form Response Bias Scale, Structured Inventory of Malingered Symptomatology), and neuropsychological measures assessing objective cognitive performance (e.g., Trail Making Test parts A and B). Pearson correlations were conducted between subjective functioning and objective cognitive performance in the following groups: 1.) PVT and SVT valid, 2.) PVT and SVT invalid, 3.) PVT-only invalid, 4.) SVT-only invalid. Using Fisher’s r-to-z transformation, tests for the differences between correlation coefficients were then conducted between the PVT and SVT valid vs. PVT and SVT invalid groups, and the PVT-only invalid vs. SVT-only invalid groups.Results:Participants with fully valid PVT and SVT performances demonstrated generally stronger relationships between subjective and objective scores (r’s = .058 - .310) compared to participants with both invalid PVT and SVT scores (r’s = -.033 - .132). However, the only significant difference in the strengths of correlations between the groups was found on Trail Making Test Part B (p = .034). In separate exploratory analyses due to low group size, those with invalid PVT scores only (fully valid SVT) demonstrated generally stronger relationships between subjective and objective scores (r’s = -.101 - .741) compared to participants with invalid SVT scores only (fully valid PVT; r’s = -.088 - .024). However, the only significant difference in the strengths of correlations between the groups was found on Trail Making Test Part A (p = .028).Conclusions:The present study suggests that at least some of the discrepancies in previous studies between subjective and objective cognitive performance may be related to performance and symptom validity. Specifically, very weak relationships between objective and subjective performance were found in participants who only failed SVTs, whereas relationships were stronger in those who only failed PVTs. Therefore, findings suggest that including measures of PVTs and SVTs in future studies investigating relationships between subjective and objective cognitive performance is critical to ensuring accuracy of conclusions that are drawn.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Abstract Objective Veterans with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) frequently report cognitive difficulties, though these are not always supported by objective neuropsychological testing. The current study compared mTBI Veterans with subjective disinhibition to Veteran Controls (VC) on an objective response inhibition task while controlling for depression. Methods 53 mTBI Veterans and 31 VC with optimal effort completed a go/no-go response inhibition (RI) task and measures of subjective disinhibition (Frontal Systems Executive Behavior scale) and depression (Beck Depression Inventory-II). ANCOVAs compared RI performances of VC without cognitive complaints to (1) the total sample of mTBI Veterans and (2) to mTBI Veterans with (t-score>60; mTBI+disinhibition; n = 23) and without (t-score < 60; mTBI-disinhibition; n = 30) subjective complaints of disinhibition. Results Relative to the VC group, the mTBI Veterans endorsed significantly greater depressive symptoms (p < .001). No significant differences in RI performance were observed when the total mTBI sample was compared to VC. However, in the three group analysis, there was a significant effect of group (p = .002) controlling for depression (p = .396). Post-hoc analyses revealed the mTBI+disinhibition group performed significantly worse than the mTBI-disinhibition (p < .001) and VC (p < .001) groups; no significance differences in RI performance were observed between the mTBI-disinhibition and VC groups (p = .914). Conclusions While the larger mTBI group did not differ from VC on RI performance, mTBI Veterans with subjective disinhibition complaints evidenced poorer objective RI. Findings therefore suggest that Veterans with elevated subjective complaints may be at risk for experiencing objective cognitive difficulties. Future research is needed to elucidate the neural underpinnings of these group differences as well as clinical outcomes.

Texte intégralRésumé :
A primary difficulty with music performance assessment is managing its subjective nature. To help improve objectivity, rubrics can be used to develop a set of guidelines for clearly assessing student performance. Moreover, rubrics serve as documentation for student achievement that provides music teachers with a written form of accountability. This article examines the complexities of music performance assessment and provides an argument for the benefit of rubrics in the assessment process. In addition, discussion includes an overview of the various types of rubrics as well as suggestions for choosing and writing rubrics to assess musical performances.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between mental fatigue induced by a demanding cognitive task and impaired physical performance in endurance due to a higher perception of effort. A total of 12 healthy adults and volunteers, who had previously practiced endurance activities for 4 to 8 h per week, performed a one-hour cognitive task involving either the process of response inhibition (Stroop task) or not (visualization of a documentary as control task), then 20 min of pedaling on a cycle ergometer at a constant perception of effort while cardio-respiratory and neuromuscular functions were measured. The Stroop task induces subjective feelings of mental fatigue (vigor: 3.92 ± 2.61; subjective workload: 58.61 ± 14.57) compared to the control task (vigor: 5.67 ± 3.26; p = 0.04; subjective workload: 32.5 ± 10.1; p = 0.005). This fatigue did not act on the produced perceived effort, self-imposed, and did not affect the cardio-respiratory or neuromuscular functions during the subsequent physical task whose type was medium-term endurance. Regardless of the mental condition, the intensity of physical effort is better controlled when the participants in physical activity control their perception of effort. Mental fatigue does not affect subsequent physical performance but estimated perceived exertion, which increases with the intensity and duration of the exercise.

Texte intégralRésumé :
In the present study, we identified the factors of cognitive and physical performances predicting self-rated health perception (SRH) using an SRH questionnaire in 660 (298 men and 362 women) upper-middle-aged community dwellers. In addition, neuropsychological test battery and physical ability tests were applied. A multiple regression analysis was conducted using the forced entry method; digit cancellation test (D-CAT1), logical memory test, verbal fluency test, back strength, timed-up and-go (TUG), balancing test, age, and sex were independent variables, and SRH was used as the dependent variable. The results showed that variables of D-CAT1(β = 0.175, p < 0.001), TUG(β = −0.095, p < 0.026) and body mass index (BMI; β = 0.095, p < 0.018) significantly predicted participants’ SRH, whereas other variables, including sex, did not contribute significantly. D-CAT1 exerted the strongest effect on SRH. These findings indicate that upper-middle-aged individuals use their cognitive and physical performances that strongly relate to the prefrontal cortex functions to form SRH. Based on these findings, we discussed the possible effective strategies that the health-promoting staff of the local government can implement to sustain or increase the SRH of community dwellers.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Few studies have applied a person-centered approach to work motivation using cluster or profile analyses. Thus, little is known about which configurations of work motivations characterize professionals. The aim of this study is to establish the structure of work motivation profiles under the framework of self-determination theory and to examine the relationship between work motivation and subjective work performance. The study involved 147 corporate employees who completed the Multidimensional Work Motivation Scale and self-rated their work performance. The two-step cluster analysis was applied, followed by a one-way ANOVA and a post-hoc Bonferroni test. The findings revealed differences between the five profiles for all forms of motivational regulation on the self-determination continuum (large effect sizes). Further examination revealed that the employees’ current work performances differed across motivational profiles (medium effect size). Strongly and poorly motivated as well as autonomously motivated employees reported better subjective work performance compared to unmotivated individuals. In line with self-determination theory, the quantity and shape of motivation can be simultaneously considered in terms of both theoretical and practical implementation.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Abstract Objective A weak relationship exists between subjective memory complaints and performance on objective measures of learning and memory. A memory catastrophizing scale may explain this relationship. Our objective is to preliminarily explore a scale which assesses catastrophizing. Method The sample consisted of 46 patients (21 normal profiles, 25 mild cognitive impairment; mean age 56.1 ± 15.4) in a community-based neurology clinic. Each patient completed a clinical interview and comprehensive neuropsychological battery. The California Verbal Learning Test II (CVLT-II) was used to assess memory; the Beck Depression Inventory and Beck Anxiety Inventory were used to assess depressive and anxiety symptoms; a novel Memory Catastrophizing Scale (MCS) was used to assess subjective memory. Results A reliability analysis revealed internal consistency throughout the MCS (Cronbach’s alpha = .958). A bivariate correlation revealed that memory catastrophizing was significantly positively correlated with depressive (r = 0.623, p < 0.01) and anxiety (r = 0.433, p < 0.01) symptomology. Bivariate correlations demonstrated significant positive correlations between subjective memory complaints and memory (CVLT-II SDFR r = 0.502, p < .05; SDCR r = 0.434, p = 0.05; LDCR r = 0.512, p < .05) only among NP patients. The mean MCS score was 26 (±17), with a median of 17, a skewness of 0.40 and kurtosis of -0.77. Conclusion Our results support past research suggesting that there is a weak relationship between subjective and objective memory performances. Catastrophizing as a concept may explain the relationship between mood and performance on testing, especially amongst individuals without a known neurological pathology seeking treatment at a community-based neurological clinic.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Research in physiology and sports science has shown that fatigue, a complex psychophysiological phenomenon, has a relevant impact in performance and in the correct functioning of our motricity system, potentially being a cause of damage to the human organism. Fatigue can be seen as a subjective or objective phenomenon. Subjective fatigue corresponds to a mental and cognitive event, while fatigue referred as objective is a physical phenomenon. Despite the fact that subjective fatigue is often undervalued, only a physically and mentally healthy athlete is able to achieve top performance in a discipline. Therefore, we argue that physical training programs should address the preventive assessment of both subjective and objective fatigue mechanisms in order to minimize the risk of injuries. In this context, our paper presents a machine-learning system capable of extracting individual fatigue descriptors (IFDs) from electromyographic (EMG) and heart rate variability (HRV) measurements. Our novel approach, using two types of biosignals so that a global (mental and physical) fatigue assessment is taken into account, reflects the onset of fatigue by implementing a combination of a dimensionless (0-1) global fatigue descriptor (GFD) and a support vector machine (SVM) classifier. The system, based on 9 main combined features, achieves fatigue regime classification performances of 0.82±0.24, ensuring a successful preventive assessment when dangerous fatigue levels are reached. Training data were acquired in a constant work rate test (executed by 14 subjects using a cycloergometry device), where the variable under study (fatigue) gradually increased until the volunteer reached an objective exhaustion state.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Publishing in high-ranking journals is one of the many critical dimensions by which academic performances of scholars in higher education are measured. Researchers have proposed various approaches in ranking academic journals, although they are inconsistent because of their reliance on either subjective or objective indicators. However, both of these approaches have various advantages and disadvantages and integrating these approaches to completely demonstrate journal performance on various dimensions are still lacking. This study reviews previous journal ranking approaches and proposes a balanced-rating index in ranking hospitality and tourism journals. This proposed approach integrates both subjective and objective indicators into five dimensions (article influence, journal reputation, publisher reputation, efficiency and effectiveness, and readership) with 39 indicators in relation to the corresponding data collection method needed. The balanced-rating index is a new approach in ranking hospitality and tourism journals. The study also presents several critical implications for future research and practices to consider.

Brain Sciences 9, no 11 (24 octobre 2019) : 290. http://dx.doi.org/10.3390/brainsci9110290.
Texte intégralRésumé :
The study investigated, through neuroendocrinological, subjective and behavioral assessments, how aging individuals cope with locomotor-cognitive dual-tasking and whether physical activity habits influence the acute response to locomotor-cognitive performance. Seventy-nine healthy participants aged 55–85 years were assessed on locomotor (gait speed, stride length) and cognitive (working memory) performances under single- and dual-task (ST, DT) conditions, and habitual physical activity (daily steps). Rating of perceived exertion (RPE) was assessed immediately after performance. Salivary α-amylase (sAA) was measured prior, immediately and 5 min after performance. Gait and working memory variables, the area under the curve of sAA (AUC) and DT–ST differences (DT effects) were computed. AUC was higher when the ST or DT performance involved a locomotor component and showed a pre-to-post increment after DT only, whereas RPE was higher when performance involved a cognitive component. Daily steps neither predicted sAA, nor RPE. Associations between DT effects on sAA, RPE and performance emerged in high-active participants only. In aging individuals, DT walking elicits an autonomic stress response presumably led by the challenge to share resources relying upon common neural substrates. This autonomic response seems tuned to gait performance and subjective evaluation of effort in those more accustomed to walking.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Procedures to evaluate the quality of musical performance, like psychological tests generally, vary in reliability and validity. How can both be optimised? The subjective world of jurors comprises input (sensations) and output (thoughts and emotions). Cognitive approaches to performance evaluation, in which different aspects are analytically considered and the results combined, are more reliable than emotional approaches, which are ultimately based on holistic ‘gut reactions’. However, emotional approaches may be more valid. Both depend on the serial order in which performances are presented to evaluators, suggesting a need for independent, computer-controlled procedures in which jurors evaluate performances in different random orders. Jurors can be influenced by performers’ appearance and movements, as well as knowledge about past performances, whether or not they believe they should be; additional blind evaluations (sound only) could help. Evaluations may depend primarily on specific features such as right-hand melodic phrasing in romantic piano music. It would be interesting to systematically track the emotional state of jurors during a competition in order to better understand the interaction between their thoughts and emotions. In general, traditional approaches to performance evaluation might be supplemented (not replaced) by psychologically inspired, computer-based procedures. A ‘superjury’ could compare evaluations from different methods or ‘subjuries’.

Texte intégralRésumé :
It is acknowledged that various types of thematic maps emphasize different aspects of mapped phenomena and thus support different map users’ tasks. To provide empirical evidence, a user study with 366 participants was carried out comparing three map types showing the same input data. The aim of the study is to compare the effect of using choropleth, graduated symbols, and isoline maps to solve basic map user tasks. Three metrics were examined: two performance metrics (answer accuracy and time) and one subjective metric (difficulty). The results showed that the performance metrics differed between the analyzed map types, and better performances were recorded using the choropleth map. It was also proven that map users find the most commonly applied type of the map, choropleth map, as the easiest. In addition, the subjective metric matched the performance metrics. We conclude with the statement that the choropleth map can be a sufficient solution for solving various tasks. However, it should be remembered that making this type of map correctly may seem easy, but it is not. Moreover, we believe that the richness of thematic cartography should not be abandoned, and work should not be limited to one favorable map type only.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Experience of Transcendence’ is acoustically characterized in Pfarrkirche St Michael, Steyr using trained participants’ feedback during live organ rendition of Johann Sebastian Bach’s ‘TOCCATA’. Transcendental experiences of ‘awe’, ‘deeper understanding’ and ‘tranquility’ were acoustically derived and termed as ‘Acoustically Transcendent Awe’ (ATAWE), ‘Acoustically Transcendent Intelligibility’ (ATINT), and ‘Acoustically Transcendent Tranquility’ (ATTRANQ). In this study, ‘Acoustically Transcendent Intelligibility’ (ATINT) and ‘Acoustically Transcendent Tranquility’ (ATTRANQ) showed significant multiregressions with subjective acoustical qualities of the space (R2=0.99; p=0.01) and (R2=0.99; p=0.04) respectively. Instantaneous, statistical and percentile sound levels during ambient noise and during live performances were recorded at different listening zones. Background Noise Levels (LA90) between 76dB-82dB indicated congregational and choir space as optimally loud (without any need for electro-acoustical support) and sanctuary (with LA90 value of 56.8dB) as needing support, for performance and listening. Acoustically ranscendent Intelligibility (ATINT) was found significantly predictable from Subjective Acoustical Quality of Silence from Background Noise (SAQSNOIS) (p=0.05) and from Background Noise Level (LA90) (p=0.05). Perception of optimal Reverberance (SAQREV) in the Choir Loft provides good ambience for choir and musicians. These significant relationships between Acoustical Transcendence Impressions, Subjective Acoustical Qualities and Sound Levels can serve as part of Pfarrkirche St Michael’s unique intangible heritage.

The article will critically discuss such artistic renderings of what might be termed as ‘Big Data’ and how these various data-translations are presented in the form of artefacts, installations, and performances that establish different aesthetic experiences and effects. A further point developed within the article will be how the examples addressed here diverge according to the data sets used, as something either drawn from large public and (mostly) accessible databases or individually collected data.<div> </div>

Texte intégralRésumé :
This study reports on subjective and objective acoustical field measurements made in a survey of 36 Catholic churches in Portugal built in the last 14 centuries. Monaural acoustical measurements (RT, EDT. C80, D50, TS and L) were taken at several source/receiver locations in each church and a group of college students was asked to judge the subjective quality of music. The listeners in each church evaluated live music performances at similar locations in each room. Evaluation sheets were used to record the listeners' overall impressions of room acoustic quality and also Loudness, Reverberance. Intimacy. Envelopment. Directionality, Balance, Clarity, Echoes and Background Noise. This paper concentrates on the relationships of the subjective parameters with the objective room acoustics measures and with the architectural features of the churches. Correlation analyses and statistical modeling identified significant relationships among the measures. For instance, linear correlation coefficients (| R|) of 0.8–0.9 were found for the relationships: Reverberance/RT and Clarity/C80; the maximum | R| found was 0.93 for Echoes/RT. Regarding architectural features the maximum | R | found was 0.87 between Intimacy and Total Volume.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Abstract The luxury car market has demanding product development standards aimed at providing state-of-the-art features in the automotive domain. Handling performance is amongst the most important properties that must be assessed when developing a new car model. In this work, we analyse the problem of predicting subjective evaluations of automobiles handling performances from objective records of driving sessions. A record is a multi-dimensional time series describing the temporal evolution of the mechanical state of an automobile. A categorical variable quantifies the evaluations of handling properties. We describe an original deep learning system, featuring a denoising autoencoder and hierarchical attention mechanisms, that we designed to solve this task. Attention mechanisms intrinsically compute probability distributions over their inputs’ components. Combining this feature with the saliency maps technique, our system can compute heatmaps that provide a visual aid to identify the physical events conditioning its predictions.

Abstract Objective We examined perceived workload as it is related to Brief Visual Memory Test-Revised (BVMT-R) short-delay and long-delay performance in traumatic brain injury (TBI) and healthy comparison (HC) participants. Method The sample consisted of 39 TBI participants and 54 HC participants. Demographically corrected BVMT-R scores were used to evaluate short-delay and long-delay performances. The perceived workload was measured using the NASA-TLX. Results ANOVA revealed that the HC group outperformed the TBI group on the BVMT-R short-delay and long-delay score, p < 05, η p 2 = 0.05. ANCOVAs controlling for age were used to evaluate NASA-TLX group differences. In regards to the NASA-TLX, TBI participants reported higher levels of physical demand, effort, frustration and overall subjective workload on the BVMT-R short-delay compared to HC participants, p < 05, η p 2 = 0.01–0.09. Furthermore, on the long-delay of the BVMT-R, the NASA-TLX revealed that the TBI group reported higher levels of temporal demand, effort, frustration and overall subjective workload compared to the HC group, p < 0.05, η p 2 = 0.05–0.14. Conclusions Results revealed that TBI participants demonstrated worse BVMT-R performances than HC participants. However, TBI survivors reported higher perceived workload demands compared to the HC group in both short-delay and long-delay of the BVMT-R. Our findings suggest that TBI impacts non-verbal memory performance in both BVMT-R short-delay and long-delay. Also, brain injury may be impacting TBI survivors’ awareness of their non-verbal memory performance. Further work is required to determine what drives the impaired perception of non-verbal memory performance among TBI survivors.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Based in anthropology (Cole & Knowles, 2001), life history inquiry into literature emphasizes deep understandings of literary characters that are expressed through dramatic performance. For teachers or teacher-educators, life histories offer a powerful teaching strategy. Life histories support locating readers in a particular pattern or “grammar” of events, situations, and goals while also revealing the subjective worlds of characters who are involved in such events. In an undergraduate Honors Literacies course, life histories performances in response to the young adult novel, The Skin I’m In(Flake, 1998), enabled examinations of the complex interaction of characters, their lives, and particular contexts.

Abstract Objective The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether self-reports of cognitive symptoms were associated with cognitive test performances. Methods The sample included 112 Canadian Football League (CFL) athletes who were diagnosed using CFL concussion protocols. All participants underwent a cognitive assessment at baseline and prior to medical clearance. The battery included the immediate post-concussion assessment and cognitive testing (ImPACT) and The Post-Concussion Symptom Checklist. Results Self-reported cognitive symptoms and cognitive test performances were evaluated using Spearman’s rank correlations (rho; ρ). There were significant negative correlations between post-concussion verbal memory composite and the self-reported cognitive symptoms total (ρ = −0.22). Similar patterns were found for visual memory composite and the self-reported cognitive symptom total (ρ = −0.19). Paired-samples t-tests were used to assess differences between pre- and post-concussion scores. Cases were omitted if there were no pre- or post-test. If multiple concussions were sustained, the first assessment was used (n = 99). There was a significant difference between the pre- and post-test results between the subjective cognitive symptom total (t = −2.034, p > 0.05). Conclusions These outcomes suggest that CFL athletes report significantly higher cognitive symptoms following a concussion. Additionally, the pre-test subjective measures were not correlated to objective cognitive functioning. However, post-concussion subjective measures were negatively correlated with verbal and visual memory. This suggests that self-reports were more accurate at assessing their overall functioning following a concussion.
