Reading Motivation: Multidimensional and Indeterminate.

The Motivations for Reading Questionnaire (MRQ) contains 54 items that are posited to tap 11 dimensions of reading motivation. The structural validity of the MRQ was investigated with 2 samples: (a) 328 students in Grades 3-5 from 2 suburban mid-Atlantic elementary schools and (b) 735 students in Grades 3-5 in 2 suburban southwestern elementary schools. With confirmatory factor analyses (CFAs), the theoretical 11-factor structure did not adequately fit the data in either sample. Subsequently, exploratory factor analyses found 8 factors for each sample with 6 factors defined by only 3 or 4 common items. However, a double CFA cross-validation found an inadequate fit for both samples. Given these results, the authors suggest that the MRQ be revised.

Night and Day: Are Siblings as Different in Temperament as Parents Say They Are?

Twin studies suggest that parent ratings of temperament exaggerate differences between twins. The present study examined whether such contrast effects also operate for nontwin siblings. The activity level (AL) and shyness of 95 nontwin sibling pairs (ages 3 to 8 years) were assessed via parent ratings and objective measures (actigraph and observer ratings). Siblings showed no resemblance in either parent-rated AL or shyness; however, sibling resemblance for actigraph AL and observer-rated shyness was substantial. Thus, parents do contrast their nontwin siblings when rating these 2 temperament dimensions. Moreover, the importance of sibling differences in temperament to the sibling relationship and differential maternal treatment varied across the different measures of AL and shyness, suggesting that parent perceptions may play a role in these associations.

The amylose and lipid contents,dimensions, and gelatinisation characteristics of some wheat starches and their A- and B-granule fractions

Starches isolated from 23 bread wheats (Triticum aestivum) and 26 durum wheats (T. durum) contained 26.3-30.6% (mean 29.1%) total amylose, 19.3–25.1% (mean 22.9%) apparent amylose and 783–1144mg 100g^?1 (mean 977 mg 100g^?1) lysophos-pholipids. Gelatinisation temperatures were 57.3–64.9°C (mean 61.8°C) and enthalpies 6.4–11.8 Jg^?1 (mean 9.7Jg^?1) in excess water, measured by differential scanning calorimetry. There were no correlations between any of these parameters. Starch granule size distributions were determined with a Coulter Counter and 100–channel analyser. A-granule mean volumes were 1235–2585μm³ (av. 1778), modal volumes 863–1804μm³ (av. 1264), mean diameters 13.9–16.0μm (av. 13.99), and specific surface areas 0.236–0.302m²g^?1. B-granule mean volumes were 35.4–100.4μm³ (av. 55.9), modal volumes 16.5–54.5μm³ (av. 27.7), mean diameters 3.66–5.07μm (av. 4.09), and specific surface areas 0.684–0.920m²g^?1. The B-granule contents of the starches were 12.8–34.6% (av. 27.3) by weight (sedimentation method) and 13.0–37.3% (av. 24.0) by volume (Coulter method), the latter being the more accurate method.     

用改进的逐次逼近解法计算二维井间电磁场

提出了一种计算积分方程的新方法——改进的逐次逼近解法 (MSAM) ,并用该方法计算了轴对称二维井间电磁场。与传统的逐次逼近解法 (SAM)相比 ,该方法收敛性强 ,应用范围广 ,可适用于高电导率对比地层。由于不必进行直接的大型矩阵求逆运算 ,因此与积分方程的直接解法 (IE)相比 ,该方法计算速度更快 ,所需内存更少。采用矩阵求逆方法计算了成层介质中的二维 Green函数 ,并对含 Green函数的积分进行了简化 ,从而加快了计算速度。数值计算结果显示 ,在地层电导率对比度达到 2个数量级时 MSAM仍收敛 ,且计算结果与直接求解积分方程的结果一致 ,因此 MSAM是一种有效的计算轴对称二维井间电磁场的方法     

反偏移法三维波动方程正演

三维地震资料的处理与解释往往都需要三维正演模型给予验证，以得到准确的处理、解释结果。本文提出的三维正演方法是一种偏移算法的逆运算方法－有限差分反偏移法。这一算法具有算法简单、运算量小及深度方向分辨率高的特点，是一种快速、高精度的正演算法。反偏移法虽是偏移算法的逆运算法，却出现常规偏移算法中所没有的很多问题。为此，本文进行了三种不同反偏移方法试验，并采用了一种新的浮动坐标变换，使正演结果精度得到很大

三维合成炮叠前深度偏移

对国际上标准的SEG/EAEG模型进行了三维合成炮叠前偏移研究。与三维单炮叠前深度偏移不同 ,三维合成炮叠前偏移有一个叠前数据的合成过程 ,由于合成后数据量大大减少 ,所以合成炮偏移的计算量要比单炮偏移小得多。阐述了三维合成炮叠前偏移的实现过程 ,给出了相应公式。对SEG/EAEG盐丘模型的一个数据集进行了MPI并行计算 ,取得了良好的成像效果。所作的较多计算表明了三维合成炮叠前偏移的正确性和有效性 ,这为野外实际数据的三维叠前深度偏移提供了另一条有效途径。
