Обозрение психиатрии и медицинской психологии имени В.М. Бехтерева, 2020 To date, there is an urgent need to develop psychometric scales that would not depend on the distribution of assessments and on the construct itself. Creation of such scales is possible only on the basis of technologies that are not conceptually related ...

SDI: is it a reliable fouling index?
Desalination and Water Treatment, 2012 The ASTM considers the silt density index (SDI) test as a standard test for fouling potential of RO and NF feed waters. Up to date, the SDI is used at many full- and pilot-scale installations. The design and choice of the applied RO pretreatment is to a large extent based on the SDI test on the raw feed water.

Validity and reliability of the agentive steadfastness index
International Journal of Psychology, 2023 Agentive steadfastness is a hitherto unarticulated and unmeasured construct, although clinicians may have drawn intuitively on it in anticipating clients' prognosis and anticipated responsiveness to adverse events. Following the conceptualisation and articulation of the agentive steadfastness construct and a measure thereof, the current study examined ...
