Most distribution free nonparametric methods depend on the ranks or orderings of the individual observations. This dissertation develops methods for the situation when there is only partial information about the ranks available. A random-linear-extension exact test and an empirical version of the random-linear-extension test are proposed as a new way to compare groups of data with partial orders. The basic computation procedure is to generate all possible permutations constrained by the known partial order using a randomization method similar in nature to multiple imputation. This random-linear-extension test can be simply implemented using a Gibbs Sampler to generate a random sample of complete orderings. Given a complete ordering, standard nonparametric methods, such as the Wilcoxon rank-sum test, can be applied, and the corresponding test statistics and rejection regions can be calculated. As a direct result of our new method, a single p-value is replaced by a distribution of p-values. This is related to some recent work on Fuzzy P-values, which was introduced by Geyer and Meeden in Statistical Science in 2005. A special case is to compare two groups when only two objects can be compared at a time. Three matching schemes, random matching, ordered matching and reverse matching are introduced and compared between each other. The results described in this dissertation provide some surprising insights into the statistical information in partial orderings.

Full textAbstract:
Managed care through a series of comprehensive health care services is a trend in today’s healthcare; and it includes specialized services that can provide plenty of opportunities to many healthcare organizations. Private Medical Service of San Diego currently does not have the necessary medical equipment to provide a comprehensive pain management and the ability to retain availability and flexibility to grow at its own pace and convenience. The new business plan is to acquire fluoroscopic equipment that will be staged in-house to equip its interdisciplinary pain management program. This will help increase the efficacy and safety of the pain management procedures as well as a potential for good profit.

Full textAbstract:
This study was undertaken to determine the differences and relationships between current and ideal advisory councils of the Cooperative Extension Service in Alaska, as perceived by council members and Extension agents. Responses to a written questionnaire were compared to determine differences in perceptions between the groups, with conclusions generalized only to the population of council members and agents in Alaska.
Data were gathered and analyzed on both current and ideal advisory councils in three areas; roles of councils, operational procedures affecting councils, and attitudes of members and agents. These areas were divided into a total of 12 categories based upon information from a review of the literature.
Council members and agents differed in their view of current councils, however, both agreed that orientation and training of councils was limited, as were resources allocated for council use. Members revealed a need for clarification of roles and authority of current councils. Agents indicated a division of opinion in attitudes about current Extension advisory councils, with less than half of agents having positive attitudes.
Advisory council members and agents perceived ideal councils encompassing all categories covered in the study. Attitudes about ideal councils were positive with both groups.
When matched against a model council drawn from the literature, current Alaska Extension advisory councils fell short. Alaska CES councils were seen as functioning, but not as closely to the ideal as perceived by members and agents, or as suggested in the literature. An improvement in council/staff shared decision making in all roles and operational procedures identified in the study would lead to more positive attitudes and to increased involvement in program planning by advisory councils.Ed.

Full textAbstract:
Bibliogaphy: leaves 148-155.Data reconciliation is a method of improving the quality of data obtained from automated measurements in chemical plants. All measuring instruments are subject to error. These measurement errors degrade the quality of the data, resulting in inconsistencies in the material and energy balance calculations. Since important decisions are based on the measurements it is essential that the most accurate data possible, be presented. Data reconciliation attempts to minimize these measurement errors by fitting all the measurements to a least-squares model, constrained by the material and energy balance equations. The resulting set of reconciled measurements do not cause any inconsistencies in the balance equations and contain minimum measurement error. Two types of measurement error can occur; random noise and gross errors. If gross errors exist in the measurements they must be identified and removed before data reconciliation is applied to the system. The presence of gross errors invalidates the statistical basis of data reconciliation and corrupts the results obtained. Gross error detection is traditionally performed using statistical tests coupled with serial elimination search algorithms. The statistical 'tests are based on either the measurement adjustment performed by data reconciliation or the balance equations' residuals. A by-product of data reconciliation, obtained with very little additional effort, is the classification of the system variables. Unmeasured variables may be classified as either observable or unobservable. An unmeasured variable is said to be unobservable if a feasible change in its value is possible without being detected by the measurement instruments. Unmeasured variables which are not unobservable are observable. Measured variables may be classified as either redundant, nonredundant or having a specified degree of redundancy. Nonredundant variables are those which upon deletion of the corresponding measurements, become unobservable. The remaining measured variables are redundant. Measured variables with a degree of redundancy equal to one, are redundant variables that retain their redundancy in the event of a failure in any one of the remaining measurement instruments.

Full textAbstract:
O'Brien and Fleming (1979) proposed a straightforward and useful multiple testing procedure (group sequential testing procedure) for comparing two treatments in clinical trials where subject responses are dichotomous (e.g. success and failure). O'Brien and Fleming stated that their group sequential testing procedure has the same Type I error rate and power as that of a fixed one-stage chi-square test, but gives the opportunity to terminate the trial early when one treatment is clearly performing better than the other. We studied and tested the O'Brien and Fleming procedure specifically by correcting the originally proposed critical values. Furthermore, we updated the O’Brien Fleming Group Sequential Testing procedure to make it more flexible via three extensions. The first extension is combining the O’Brien Fleming Group Sequential Testing procedure with the Optimal allocation, where the idea is to allocate more patients to the better treatment after each interim analysis. The second extension is combining the O’Brien Fleming Group Sequential Testing procedure with the Neyman allocation which aims to minimize the variance of the difference in sample proportions. The last extension is that we can allow for different sample weights for different stages, as opposed to equal allocation for different stages. Simulation studies showed that the O’Brien Fleming Group Sequential Testing procedure is relatively robust to the added features.

Full textAbstract:
Dans le présent travail, nous avons étendu aux solvants organiques notre méthodologie radiolytique de synthèse de polymères conducteurs (PCs), initialement développée en solutions aqueuses. Dans ce contexte, la polymérisation des PCs a été étudiée par radiolyse gamma dans différents solvants organiques et sous différentes conditions expérimentales. La synthèse radio-induite a, en particulier, été optimisée dans le dichlorométhane grâce à la variation et à l’ajustement de différents paramètres : atmosphère, dose, débit de dose, concentration des monomères, etc. Cette synthèse a ainsi pu mener à la préparation de différents types de polymères conducteurs : poly (3,4-éthylènedioxythiophène), poly (3-thiophène acétique acide) and Poly (3-hexylthiophène). Ces derniers ont été totalement caractérises en solutions ou après dépôt par des techniques analytiques, spectroscopiques et microscopiques complémentaires. Nous avons en particulier démontré la simplicité et la versatilité de la polymérisation radio-induite de TAA que ce soit dans le dichlorométhane ou dans l’eau, et avons mis en évidence quelques différentes notable entre ces deux voies de synthèse. Nous avons, par ailleurs, évalué l’influence de la nature des espèces radiolytiques oxydantes générées dans le dichlorométhane, via la variation de l’atmosphère de travail (N₂, air ou O₂), sur les propriétés des polymères conducteurs radio-synthétises, en particulier dans le cas de P3HT. Parmi les nombreuses propriétés physiques chimiques que nous avons sondées dans le cas de tous nos polymères conducteurs radio- synthétises les propriétés électroniques et électrochimiques ont fait l’objet d’une attention particulière. Nos matériaux ont alors été incorporés au sien de cellules solaires à pérovskite hybrides organiques-inorganique (PSCs) et y ont été utilisés comme matériaux de transport de trous (HTMs). Notre nouvelle stratégie radiolytique de synthèse décrite et étendu dans le présent manuscrit, ouvre sans aucun doute la voie à la préparation de nouveaux PCs nanostructurés, de morphologie contrôlée et aux propriétés augmentées : par exemple grâce à l’utilisation d’une polymérisation en microémulsions ou par le développement d’une copolymérisation raisonnéeThe extension of our original radiolytic methodology to the use of organic solvents was an important alternative approach to radiation-induced polymerization of conducting polymers (CPs) in aqueous solutions. The polymerization of CPs was studied by using gamma-radiolysis of several organic solvents under different environmental conditions. The optimization of the synthesis conditions of CPs was then conducted into dichloromethane solvent. After optimization of the synthesis conditions (atmosphere, dose, dose rate, concentration of organic monomers, etc.), the use of dichloromethane radiolysis was successfully employed to synthesize various types of conducting polymers: Poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT), Poly (3-thiophene acetic acid) (PTAA) and Poly (3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT). The radio-synthesized polymers were fully characterized in solution and after deposition by complementary analytical, spectroscopic and microscopic techniques. Also, the simplicity and versatility of radiation induced polymerization of 3-thiophene acetic acid in dichloromethane and in aqueous solutions was demonstrated. The differences between the two radiolysis routes were highlighted. Furthermore, the influence of generating different oxidizing species under different atmospheres (N₂, air or O₂) upon ɣ-irradiation of dichloromethane solutions containing organic monomers was also studied in particular in case of P3HT. The electronic and electrochemical properties were checked for all radio-synthesized CPs. Accordingly, these polymers were then incorporated in hybrid organic and inorganic perovskite solar cells (PSCs) and used as hole transport materials (HTMs). Our new radiolytic strategy described and extended in this manuscript opens the way for the preparation of new nanostructured CPs with controlled morphology and enhanced properties by using microemulsion polymerization and also for the preparation of processable conjugated materials through copolymerization

Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD) is gaining importance with the rising amount of data being collected lately, despite this analytic software systems often provide only the basic and most used procedures and algorithms. The aim of this thesis is to extend RapidMiner, one of the most frequently used systems, with some new procedures for data preprocessing. To understand and develop the procedures, it is important to be acquainted with the KDD, with emphasis on the data preparation phase. It's also important to describe the analytical procedures themselves. To be able to develop an extention for Rapidminer, its needed to get acquainted with the process of creating the extention and the tools that are used. Finally, the resulting extension is introduced and tested.

Full textAbstract:
Includes bibliography.Investigating the recreational carrying capacity of a new coastal national park in South Africa was the initial problem to be addressed. However, an examination of the concept and attempts to operationalize it shows clearly that it is illusory. Instead, the problem is conceived of as a process in which decisions about the allocation of recreation opportunities in the landscape must be made. ·The dissertation examines the complexities of decision-making in the face of multiple objectives, a spectrum of values, the uncertainties of predicting environmental impacts and the influence of the subjective values and preferences of decision makers. This leads to the conclusion that a framework is required to guide the recreation opportunity allocation decision process. This framework is to be systematic, comprehensive and above all, explicit. The subjective nature of the decision process is given overt recognition, and the role of science in environmental decision-making put in perspective. A tiered recreation planning system is proposed. At the scale of a single area such as a national park, two levels of planning are seen as necessary. The dissertation is largely concerned with elaborating an area-level procedure for allocating recreation "packages" or opportunities in the landscape. The procedure proposed combines the approach of the Limits of Acceptable Change planning system with techniques from decision analysis, to structure the subjective aspects of the process, and techniques of land evaluation to systematize the ecological basis for recreation planning in landscapes of particular conservation importance. A second, detailed level of planning at the site and recreation activity scale is proposed as being necessary, but is not developed further in the dissertation. The Limits of Acceptable Change process defines a range of recreation opportunity classes in terms of social and resource conditions and managerial approaches necessary to maintain these conditions. Environmental quality standards for each class are formulated to monitor compliance with the objectives for each class. These recreation opportunity classes must be allocated in the landscape. A decision tree is constructed to expose the actual process by which recreation opportunity classes are spatially designated. The decision-tree comprises a tiered series of questions, the answers to which are decided by explicitly defined decision rules or criteria. The basis of these decision rules are the analyst's interpretation of the data available on the system. This decision-making process was tested on the Weskus National Park at Langebaan on the Cape West coast of South Africa. It was found to be effective in allocating recreation opportunities in the landscape, and offers a defensible planning strategy for conservation agencies operating under time and financial constraints in the face of an increasingly environmentally aware and articulate public.

Full textAbstract:
In this thesis we study the Cauchy problem for elliptic equations. It arises in many areas of application in science and engineering as a problem of reconstruction of solutions to elliptic equations in a domain from boundary measurements taken on a part of the boundary of this domain. The Cauchy problem for elliptic equations is known to be ill-posed. We use an iterative regularization method based on alternatively solving a sequence of well-posed mixed boundary value problems for the same elliptic equation. This method, based on iterations between Dirichlet-Neumann and Neumann-Dirichlet mixed boundary value problems was first proposed by Kozlov and Maz’ya [13] for Laplace equation and Lame’ system but not Helmholtz-type equations. As a result different modifications of this original regularization method have been proposed in literature. We consider the Robin-Dirichlet iterative method proposed by Mpinganzima et.al [3] for the Cauchy problem for the Helmholtz equation in bounded domains. We demonstrate that the Robin-Dirichlet iterative procedure is convergent for second order elliptic equations with variable coefficients provided the parameter in the Robin condition is appropriately chosen. We further investigate the convergence of the Robin-Dirichlet iterative procedure for the Cauchy problem for the Helmholtz equation in a an unbounded domain. We derive and analyse the necessary conditions needed for the convergence of the procedure. In the numerical experiments, the precise behaviour of the procedure for different values of k2 in the Helmholtz equation is investigated and the results show that the speed of convergence depends on the choice of the Robin parameters, μ0 and μ1. In the unbounded domain case, the numerical experiments demonstrate that the procedure is convergent provided that the domain is truncated appropriately and the Robin parameters, μ0 and μ1 are also chosen appropriately.Funding Agencies: International Science Programme (ISP) and the Eastern Africa Universities Mathematics Programme (EAUMP).

Truong, Thuong. "La responsabilité des associés des sociétés commerciales." Thesis, Paris 2, 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017PA020051.
Full textAbstract:
La responsabilité des associés est une notion peu évoquée dans les enseignements du droit des sociétés. Dans les sociétés in bonis, et s’agissant de rapports externes, la responsabilité personnelle des associés pourrait être engagée pour faute détachable. Mais le principe d’un engagement de la responsabilité personnelle des associés, dans les rapports avec des tiers, est contesté, compte tenu du caractère essentiellement interne de leur activité. Dans une procédure collective, la non-responsabilité de la mère des actes de sa filiale, est contestée. Le développement de cette contestation est favorisé grâce à des armes de poursuite efficaces de l’arsenal répressif, des armes à utiliser dans un environnement hautement dérogatoire des procédures collectives. On constate une certaine tendance aggravante de la responsabilité de la mère, notamment dans le domaine social et dans l’environnement. La recherche d’une meilleure protection des victimes, pousse le législateur à légiférer dans des ilots en difficulté, distillant le caractère irréversible des solutions partielles et spécifiques, et forçant de ce fait, le passage vers l’instauration d’une présomption de responsabilité de la mère des actes de sa filiale. Pourtant, un arsenal répressif important et efficace existe, et des pistes permettent d’adoucir la responsabilité de la mère tout en la faisant participer aux difficultés de sa filialeThe liability of shareholders is a notion not often referred to in coursebook. In in bonis companies, and in the case of external relationships, the shareholder personal liability could be engaged for ‘ fault detachable’. However, the principle of a commitment to personal liability on the part of shareholders in relations with third parties is contested, due to the essentially internal nature of their activity In a collective procedure, the non-liability of the parent company for the acts of their subsidiary is challenged. The development of this challenge is facilitated by powerful weapons of the repressive arsenal, weapons to be used in a highly derogatory environment of collective procedures. There is an aggravating trend in the parent company responsibility, particularly in regard to social and environmental domains. The search for a better protection of the victims pushes the legislator to legislate on isolated problematic issues, distilling the irreversible character of partial and specific solutions, and thus forcing the passage towards the establishment of a presumption of liability of the parent company for the acts of their subsidiary. However, there is a large and effective repressive arsenal, and there are avenues to limit the parent company’s liability while involving them in their subsidiary problems

Full textAbstract:
Thesis ( LLM.) --University of Limpopo, 2019The Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, 1996 provides that a child’s best interests should be of primary consideration in any matter concerning him or her. Contrary to this value, and thereby excluding protection of child victims, section 154(3) of the Criminal Procedure Act 51 of 1977 simply focusses on anonymity protection of child offenders and witness involved in criminal proceedings. It currently expressly prohibits the publication of the identities of child offenders and witnesses when the media makes publications on the relevant criminal proceedings. However, this protection terminates once such child offenders and witnesses attain majority, therefore arbitrarily stripping them of the identity protection. As a result, media houses are not only at liberty to publish on criminal proceedings identifying child victims, but also to expose the identities of child offenders and witnesses upon attaining majority. Such publications have proved to impede on children’s rights, as well as to contribute to the psychological challenges faced by the children whenever they are exposed to the criminal justice system. In this study the constitutional validity of section 154(3) is investigated and it is argued that it is unconstitutional in all respects. The section contradicts the specific right afforded to all children in the Bill of Rights, as well as other ancillary rights, which ought to ensure the progressive realisation of the protection afforded in terms of section 154(3). It is recommended, firstly, that section 154(3) be declared unconstitutional, and be amended to include child victims within the ambit of its protection. Secondly, the protection should extend beyond the age of 18, in respect of all children involved in criminal proceedings.

This paper deals with the issue of reflecting on the nature, extent and limits of the judicial decision, which recognizes or not the disregarding of the legal personality. Furthermore, it analyzes the impacts that such a decision will create within and out of the legal action in the event of a discussion for a likely inclusion of a partner or partnership, which will depend on the kind of disregarding aimed. Thus, the purpose of this thesis is to analyze the content of the judicial decision that grants or not the disregarding of the legal personality. From a practical point of view, it is important to establish a thesis along this line. In spite of the concern to attain procedural effectiveness, that in most cases is only obtained with the gratification of receiving a credit, as will be shown, this effectiveness cannot be obtained at any price. There is a long-standing crisis in Brazil, a serious crisis of both default and abuse of rights, in which often times, people who should not be held responsible for an obligation, are hit by the simple fact of integrating a society or undertaking an economic activity. Likewise, in relation to the default crisis, there are several devices employed by individuals, who use the veil of the legal person and the inherent autonomy of it to create a look of neatness. This, however, hides an iniquitous attitude in which the partner uses the figure of society to obtain spurious gains. Thus, it is essential to make sure to what extent the decision that disregards the personality of the legal person will affect the partners, what the nature of that decision is, as well as its extent and limits
O trabalho enfrenta o problema de refletir sobre a natureza, a extensão e os limites da decisão, que reconhece ou não a desconsideração da personalidade jurídica, bem como analisa os reflexos que tal decisão produzirá dentro e fora do processo em que foi discutida eventual inclusão de sócio ou sociedade, a depender da forma de desconsideração objetivada. Assim a tese que se propõe tem como escopo analisar o conteúdo da decisão judicial que confere ou não a desconsideração da personalidade jurídica. Do ponto de vista prático, mostra-se importante estabelecer uma tese neste sentido, em razão de que, em que pese a nobreza de alcançar efetividade processual que em grande maioria dos casos só é obtida com a satisfação no recebimento de um crédito - como será demonstrada essa efetividade não pode ser obtida a qualquer preço. Enfrenta-se de longa data no Brasil, uma séria crise tanto de inadimplemento, como de abuso de direitos, em que muitas vezes pessoas que não devem ser responsabilizadas por uma obrigação acabam atingidas pelo simples fato de integrar uma sociedade ou empreender uma atividade econômica. Do mesmo modo, em relação à crise de inadimplemento, vários são os ardis utilizados por indivíduos que se servem do manto da pessoa jurídica e da autonomia patrimonial dela decorrente para criar uma aparência de higidez que, no entanto, esconde uma atuação iníqua em que o sócio se aproveita da aparência da sociedade para obter vantagens escusas. Com isso, é fundamental verificar em que medida a decisão que desconsidera a personalidade da pessoa jurídica atingirá os sócios, qual a natureza dessa decisão, bem como qual a sua extensão e limites

The dissertation, which is entirely drafted in English, hinges on a comparative study of both the Italian and British legal system - including some reference to the American jurisdiction - from the point of view of the criminal procedure rules. Through the analysis of a specific case study, namely the trial for the murder of Meredith Kercher, the paper aims to highlight what the substantial differences between civil law and common law are and the extent to which these divergencies can impact criminal proceedings. Therefore, particular attention is placed on the media coverage that the case has had, both in Italy and in United Kingdom and the United States, and on how this has - perhaps only apparently - influenced the trial and public opinion.

Full textAbstract:
L'étude juridique du groupe de sociétés fait apparaître une difficulté majeure qui émane de la grande différence entre le droit et le fait. En effet, bien qu'elles soient liées par un intérêt commun, les sociétés membres d'un groupe ne font toujours pas l'objet d'une réglementation détaillée qui prendrait en considération leur entité et leur unité économique et sociale distinctes. Il découle de cet antagonisme un risque de non correspondance des intérêts particuliers des sociétés membres avec la prévalence juridique de l'intérêt du groupe, lequel pourrait induire des effets préjudiciables aux différentes catégories des créanciers de ces sociétés.Toutefois, cette absence d'une loi particulière aux groupes a donné lieu à une réglementation ponctuelle qui vient modifier des règles du droit des sociétés ou qui régit certains domaines particuliers. De même, en raison d'une telle insuffisance de normes écrites, une importante partie du droit positif des groupes semble d'origine jurisprudentielle. Soutenus par la Cour de cassation, les juges du fond ne cessent de circonscrire les différents aspects de ce phénomène en vue de combler des lacunes juridiques qui heurtent l'équité. Plusieurs théories ont été instaurées en la matière, construisant ensemble une base importante pour la protection des créanciers, des salariés et des associés minoritaires liés à l'ensemble des sociétés regroupées.

Public construction works commonly encounter the problem of falling behind schedule, and consequently result in delaying target project duration and occurring delay penalty. For dealing with the possible schedule delay problems, the contractor usually proposes the Extension of Time (EOT) and Construction Acceleration Plan (CAP) that require to be reviewed and approved by the client. Some government agencies have application forms and reference example for EOT and CAP; however, there is no standard review principle for checking the integrity and rationality of contractor’s submittals about EOT and CAP. In general, the reviewers conduct review works merely on their experience. This study collects the manuals and specifications about EOT and CAP in Taiwan’s governments and the literature, summarizes common procedures and key review items and principles, interviews with domain experts for issues identification and outcomes review, and finally proposes operation procedures and review principles for EOT and CAP. It is anticipated that the proposed operation procedures and review principles for EOT and CAP could be a valuable reference for the reviewer.

Some validations of and extensions to the Parametric‐Historic procedure as developed in a
two‐paper sequel by Andrzej Kijko and Gerhard Graham in 1998 and 1999 are presented.
The source‐free distribution they derive is validated through a somewhat more rigorous
mathematical derivation. The approach is also extended in two ways. The first extension
involves direct application of the estimators, which they used to determine maximum
regional magnitude, now to directly determine the maximum possible peak ground
acceleration at a specific site. The second extension is a generalization of the distribution of
peak ground acceleration in a semi‐closed form solution to incorporate a wider range of
ground motion prediction equations. The first extension is straightforward and is
simultaneously developed and validated by example application to actual ground motion
data. The second extension is derived and then applied to a specific ground motion
prediction equation as example to illustrate its performance.Dissertation (MSc)--University of Pretoria, 2014.

Full textAbstract:
The Auditory Steady State Response (ASSR) procedure has been established as a frequency specific, objective audiologic measure, which can provide reliable thresholds to within 10 dB of the behavioral thresholds. In order for ASSR to find its place in the existing framework of audiometric procedures, the full potential of the procedure needs to be explored. The aim of this study was to determine the accuracy of monotic ASSR in estimating hearing thresholds in a group of 15 normal hearing subjects and 15 hearing-impaired subjects. A comparative research design was implemented. Indicating that results obtained in the study was compared to relevant literature where dichotic multiple ASSR was implemented. This was done in order to ascertain ASSR’s capabilities with regard to stimulus presentation methods. Monotic single ASSR predicted behavioural thresholds in the normal hearing subjects within an average of 24 dB across the frequency range (0.5, 1, 2&4 kHz). In the hearing-impaired group, ASSR thresholds more closely resembled behavioural thresholds, with an average difference of 18 dB, which is consistent with recent literature. The literature suggests that better prediction of behavioural thresholds will occur with greater degrees of hearing loss, due to recruitment. The focus in this group also centered on the accurate prediction of the configuration of the hearing loss. It was found that ASSR could reasonably accurately predict the configuration of the hearing loss. In the last instance, monotic single and dichotic multiple ASSR were compared with regard to threshold estimation and prediction of configuration of the hearing loss in the hearing-impaired group. Little difference was reported between the two techniques with regard to the estimation of thresholds in both the normal hearing and hearing impaired groups. In conclusion it was established that monotic ASSR could predict behavioural thresholds of varying degrees and configurations of hearing loss in normal and hearing-impaired subjects with a reasonable amount of accuracy. At this stage, however, more research is required to establish the clinical validity of the procedure, before it is routinely included within an objective test battery.Dissertation (M (Communication Pathology))--University of Pretoria, 2005.
