To assess students' perceptions toward visual testing 152 university students were randomly assigned to one of seven treatment groups. Each student received a 50-item multiple-choice criterion measure and a Student Preference Questionnaire within a 5-wk. period. Students preferred to be evaluated via the conventional unpaced pencil-paper format. Regardless of their personal preference for the printed over the examiner-paced slide format, students achieved as well on the visual test as on the printed one.

Socially Relevant

Socially-relevant decisions are based on clearly recognizable but also not consciously accessible affective stimuli. We studied the role of the dorsolateral frontal cortex (DLFC) in decision-making on masked affect expressions using functional magnetic resonance imaging. Our paradigm permitted us to capture brain activity during a pre-decision phase when the subjects viewed emotional expressions below the threshold of subjective awareness, and during the decision phase, which was based on verbal descriptions as the choice criterion. Using meta-analytic connectivity modeling, we found that the preparatory phase of the decision was associated with activity in a right-posterior portion of the DLFC featuring co-activations in the left-inferior frontal cortex. During the subsequent decision a right-anterior and more dorsal portion of the DLFC became activated, exhibiting a different co-activation pattern. These results provide evidence for partially independent sub-regions within the DLFC, supporting the notion of dual associative processes in intuitive judgments.

Randomization Method

Subject. This article discusses the innovation activities of companies participating in clusters. Objectives. The article aims to justify a choice of State support facilities for the innovation activities of enterprises participating in clusters. Methods. For the study, we used the hierarchical aggregated indices randomization method and Monte Carlo method. Results. During the study of cluster construction in St. Petersburg, an array of data was obtained. Based on calculations, we show the choice of two enterprises, the best ones in terms of assessing the probability of dominance. We justify the possibility of using such a characteristic of randomized aggregated indices as the value of mathematical expectation, as a choice criterion. Conclusions. The algorithm developed to apply the aggregated indices randomization method develops an institutional approach to the analysis of regional clusters.

Actual Selection

This pilot study explored the relationships among quality as a parent reported criterion for choosing child care, the actual selection of accredited child care, and maternal separation anxiety. Of the 59 mothers, 29 had placed their infants in accredited child care centers and 30 had placed their infants in nonaccredited child care centers. Participants completed a standardized measure, the Maternal Separation Anxiety Scale, and indicated their top three criteria for choosing child care on a demographic form. Participants who reported quality as a top criterion were no more likely to have chosen an accredited program than participants who did not include quality as a criterion. Student t test indicated that mothers who reported greater concern about balancing the maternal and work roles, i.e., had higher scores on Subscale Three, were more likely to have enrolled their infants in nonaccredited than accredited child care programs.
