Scherger, Nicole – MathAMATYC Educator, 2012
Of the most universal applications in integral calculus are those involved with finding volumes of solids of revolution. These profound problems are typically taught with traditional approaches of the disk and shell methods, after which most calculus curriculums will additionally cover arc length and surfaces of revolution. Even in these visibly…

Cahan, Sorel; Gamliel, Eyal – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2006
Despite its intuitive appeal and popularity, Thorndike's constant ratio (CR) model for unbiased selection is inherently inconsistent in "n"-free selection. Satisfaction of the condition for unbiased selection, when formulated in terms of success/acceptance probabilities, usually precludes satisfaction by the converse probabilities of…

DARROCH, JOHN N. – 1966
TO DEVELOP A BETTER MATHEMATICAL BASIS FOR FACTOR ANALYSIS, A MATHEMATICAL APPROACH WAS FORMULATED FOR FIXING COMMUNALITIES AND THEIR COMPLEMENTS, UNIQUENESSES, AS WELL. WHILE THE INVESTIGATOR WAS UNABLE TO PROVE THAT MINIMUM-TRACE CRITERIA FIX COMMUNALITIES UNIQUELY, A SET OF IDENTITIES AND INEQUALITIES WAS LOCATED AMONG THE COMMUNALITIES AND,…
