Abstract This Critical Synthesis Package contains: (1) a Critical Analysis of the psychometric properties and the application to health sciences education of the Seasonal Pattern Assessment Questionnaire (SPAQ), and (2) a copy of the instrument developed by Norman Rosenthal, MD.The SPAQ is a brief, self-administered screening tool for seasonal affe
Wear on a metal can be naturally found in components that operate in a friction environment, such as in a transmission system.However, it can be a substantial problem when the wear rate is not within the permitted limit.Surface hardening is a popular way to improve surface wear resistance for metals with various parameters that can be controlled du
The radiolarian chert rocks are one of the most important indications of the existence of ophiolites because they are a source of silica supply.These rocks have been studied to refute and reject the idea that ophiolites do not existed.The Si/(Si+Al+Fe+Ca) ratio in the radiolarian chert indicates that the silica is of biogenic origin and adds SiO2 f
BackgroundWomen are underrepresented at higher levels of promotion or Eyebrow Pencil leadership despite the increasing number of women physicians.In surgery, this has been compounded by historical underrepresentation.With a nation-wide focus on the importance of diversity, our aim was to provide a current snapshot of gender representation in Canadi
The chloride migration coefficient of concrete describes the resistance of concrete against chloride ingress.This important material variable can be determined with the rapid chloride migration test (RCM).During the test, chloride ions penetrate concrete by means of an applied electrical field.If the concrete has already been exposed to chlorides b
