Recent developments in clinimetric instruments
Haemophilia, 2006Summary. Assessment of impairment and function is essential in order to monitor joint status and evaluate therapeutic interventions in patients with haemophilia. The improvements in the treatment of haemophilia have required the development of more sensitive tools to detect the more minor dysfunctions that may now be apparent. This paper outlines some

Developing a workplace resilience instrument
Work, 2016BACKGROUND: Resilience benefits from the use of protective factors, as opposed to risk factors, which are associated with vulnerability. Considerable research and instrument development has been conducted in clinical settings for patients. The need existed for an instrument to be developed in a workplace setting to measure resilience of employees ...

Developing new cross-cultural research instruments is an enormous task, and it requires careful consideration from the researchers to ensure that the instruments measure what they are designed to measure and that they can also capture cultural differences and similarities among the comparative groups.

Nursing Research, 1992
Self-efficacy has been documented as a strong predictor of health behaviors. Unfortunately, availability of reliable and valid measures of self-efficacy for a range of health behaviors is still limited. This study validated two measures of cardiac risk factor self-efficacy: the Cardiac Diet Self-Efficacy Instrument (CDSEI) and the Cardiac Exercise Self-

Economic instruments: suited to developing countries?
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2006This book asks whether environmental law and policy in developed countries can be successfully transferred to developing countries. It questions whether developing countries are indeed ready and able to implement new ideas from the developed world, such as the integration of environmental law, and use of market-oriented instruments.

Editorial: Canadian mass spectrometry: Instrumentation development
Mass Spectrometry Reviews, 2009Canadian mass spectrometrists have made significant contributions to the development of new instrumentation since the earliest days of the discipline. Arthur Dempster designed and constructed a direction‐focusing magnetic sector instrument in 1918 (Physical Review 11, 316), and this early tradition was continued by people like Harry Duckworth, Larkin ...

Further Instrumental Developments in Cineradiography
The British Journal of Radiology, 1958The use of image intensifying systems has led to a major reduction of dose to the patient in cineradiography. This technique can, therefore, be used in those cases where a study of rapidly moving physiological processes is essential, with less danger to the patients and their progeny than hitherto.

Instrument Developments in Health Physics
American Industrial Hygiene Association Journal, 1958Abstract The performance characteristics and construction features are described for several instruments that were developed for specific applications in industrial hygiene in the nuclear energy industry. Two monitors, an automatic particle sampler and an NO2 recorder, are discussed. An apparatus for testing respirator performance is shown.

Endoscopy: Developments in Optical Instrumentation
Science, 1980Optical fibers transmit high-intensity illumination for viewing internal organs and tissue. Remote viewing is obtained by relays of lenses or graded-index-of-refraction rods in rigid endoscopes and by precisely aligned fiber-optic bundles in flexible fiberscopes. Endoscopy is considered for routine examinations, such as in colonoscopy.

Range Instrumentation Development
1982Abstract : Technology work during FY80 resulted in improved instrumentation capabilities for the VKF aeroballistic ranges: an experimental high-speed pyrometry system employing an indium-antimonide infrared detector has demonstrated a capability for in-flight nosetip surface temperature measurements at levels as low as 600 K. The use of narrow bandpass
