Bridging Mechanical Properties with Atomic Structures of Polymorphic α‐Synuclein Fibrils by Single‐Molecule Analysis and Molecular Dynamics Simulations

open access: yesAggregate, EarlyView.
α‐Synuclein fibrils exhibit distinct mechanical properties influencing their neurotoxicity and pathogenicity in synucleinopathies like Parkinson's disease. Combining optical tweezers and molecular dynamics simulations, this study builds the structure–mechanics relationships of wild‐type and two disease‐associated mutants E46K and A53T α‐Synuclein ...

Convergent and discriminant validity of the WIST

Journal of Clinical Psychology, 1983
Tested the ability of the Whitaker Index of Schizophrenic Thinking (WIST): (1) to distinguish schizophrenics from nonschizophrenics (N = 30); (2) to agree with clinically rated severity of thought disorder; and (3) to correlate with a measure of generalized cognitive deficit.

CIBERlite: Convergent Validity

2022
CIBERlite is an attempt to develop a lean method to get an idea of the relative importance of behavioral determinants. This registration freezes the project's state for submission of the preprint and article, so that this state is safeguarded against potential disconnections of GitLab or changes to the project in the future.

Convergent Validity of the Sharpened Romberg

Physical & Occupational Therapy In Geriatrics, 2017
ABSTRACTAim: The purpose of the study was to examine the convergent validity of the Sharpened Romberg (SR) as a measure of balance for older adults. Methods: 100 community-dwelling adults aged 60 and older performed the SR with eyes open and closed, the Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Timed Up-and-Go (TUG), and 10-Meter Walk.

The Convergent and Discriminant Validity of the Chapman Scales

Journal of Personality Assessment, 1993
Our study investigated the convergent and discriminant validity of five of Chapman's Schizotypia Scales (i.e., Physical Anhedonia, Revised Social Anhedonia, Perceptual Aberration, Magical Ideation, and Impulsive Nonconformity; L.J. Chapman, J.P. Chapman, & Raulin 1976, 1978; Eckblad & L.J.

Convergent Validation of the Illness Effects Questionnaire

Psychological Reports, 1994
The Illness Effects Questionnaire, Illness Behavior Questionnaire, and visual analog scales of mood were given to 100 adults with nonmalignant headaches. Using regression analysis, scores on IBQ Disease Conviction, IBQ Irritability, and depression accounted for 50.6% of the variance in predicting IEQ scores. Scores on the Illness Effects Questionnaire

On the convergence of validity interval analysis

IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks, 2000
Validity interval analysis (VIA) is a generic tool for analyzing the input-output behavior of feedforward neural networks. VIA is a rule extraction technique that relies on a rule refinement algorithm. The rules are of the form R(i)-->R(0) which reads if the input of the neural network is in the region R(i), then its output is in the region R(0), where

The Implications of Convergent and Discriminant Validity Data for Instrument Validation [PDF]

open access: possiblePsychometrika, 1972
It seems intuitively compelling to many investigators that measurements, on the same subjects by different methods, purportedly of the same given trait are somehow better evidenced to be mutually valid measurements of that trait to the degree that they are intercorrelated. It is similarly compelling that measurements on the same subjects of purportedly
