Acer Quest: The Interactive Test Analysis System. Version 2.1., Raymond J. Adams, Siek-Toon Khoo

Measurement and statistics

This is a guide to using Quest. Quest offers a comprehensive test and questionnaire analysis environment by providing a data analyst with access to the most recent developments in Rasch measurement theory, as well as a range of traditional analysis procedures. It includes an easy to use control language with flexible and informative output. Quest can be used to construct and validate variables based on both dichotomous and polychotomous observations. It scores and analyses such instruments as multiple choice tests, Likert type rating scales, short answer items, and partial credit items.

Uniform Bottom Shear Stress And Equilibrium Hyposometry Of Intertidal Flats, Carl T. Friedrichs Jan 1996

Uniform Bottom Shear Stress And Equilibrium Hyposometry Of Intertidal Flats, Carl T. Friedrichs

VIMS Books and Book Chapters

Hypsometry is the distribution of horizontal surface area with respect to elevation. Recent observations of tidal flat morphology have correlated convex hypsometry with large tide ranges, long‐term accretion and/or low wave activity. Concave hypsometry, in turn, has been correlated with small tide ranges, long‐term erosion and/or high wave activity. The present study demonstrates that this empirical variation in tidal flat hypsometry is consistent with a simple morphodynamic model which assumes tidal flats to be at equilibrium if maximum bottom shear stress (τ) is spatially uniform. Two general cases are considered: (i) dominance of τ by tidal currents, where τ is …
