In order to assert that a complex simulation is an adequate representation of the real world the computational model must be validated against experimental results. Typically this validation is conducted at a small number of specified conditions, and set points. The simulation will differ from the experimental result due to experimental, numerical and simulation input uncertainties as well as un-modeled physics. The latter contributor is the modeling error. At these validation set points the modeling error can be estimated to fall within an interval. This range is the simulation minus experiment, plus/minus the combined experimental, numerical and simulation input uncertainties [1]. However, the purpose of creating a simulation is to predict results at set points where experimental results are unavailable. The uncertainty in this prediction is a combination of numerical and simulation input uncertainties along with the modeling error. In order to specify a prediction uncertainty it is necessary to extrapolate the modeling error interval to these prediction set points.

AbstractIf we want psychological science to have a meaningful real-world impact, it has to be trusted by the public. Scientific progress is noisy; accordingly, replications sometimes fail even for true findings. We need to communicate the acceptability of uncertainty to the public and our peers, to prevent psychology from being perceived as having nothing to say about reality.

This article presents some streamlined and intentionally oversimplified ideas about educating future communication disorders professionals to use some of the most basic principles of evidence-based practice. Working from a popular five-step approach, modifications are suggested that may make the ideas more accessible, and therefore more useful, for university faculty, other supervisors, and future professionals in speech-language pathology, audiology, and related fields.

Qualitative case study research can be a valuable tool for answering complex, real-world questions. This method is often misunderstood or neglected due to a lack of understanding by researchers and reviewers. This tutorial defines the characteristics of qualitative case study research and its application to a broader understanding of stuttering that cannot be defined through other methodologies. This article will describe ways that data can be collected and analyzed.
