The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a Rasch-based procedure to calibrate responses for funding applications. The data set included 112 proposals and 66 readers, who independently scored randomly assigned proposals using a scoring instrument. The data were analyzed using FACETS (Linacre, 1999). The analysis indicated that the instrument succeeded in separating proposals into four distinct strata of quality. The proposal quality measures were found to be trustworthy in terms of their accuracy and stability. The 17 items on the scoring instrument were functioning as intended with a reliability of 0.98. Readers were found to be internally consistent while using the instrument to assess the quality of the proposals. Decision makers could easily translate the findings provided by the analyses and rely on the precision of the estimates to make reliable and defensible funding decisions. (Contains 5 tables and 11 references.) (Author)

A sequential classification algorithm for autoregressive processes
Otlu, Güneş; Candan, Çağatay; Çiloğlu, Tolga; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2011)
This study aims to present a sequential method for the classification of the autoregressive processes. Different from the conventional detectors having fixed sample size, the method uses Wald’s sequential probability ratio test and has a variable sample size. It is shown that the suggested method produces the classification decisions much earlier than fixed sample size alternative on the average. The proposed method is extended to the case when processes have unknown variance. The effects of the unknown pro...
A model to evaluate inventory costs in a remanufacturing environment
Bayındır, Zeynep Pelin; Gullu, R (Elsevier BV, 2003-01-11)
In this study we investigate possible benefits of remanufacturing in inventory-related costs. In order to examine the conditions on different system parameters that make the remanufacturing option cost attractive, the return ratio is considered as a decision variable. The production environment, where the manufacturing and remanufacturing require both common and separate operations, together with the supplier's operations for the new parts and useful lifetime of the product is modeled as a queuing network. ...

A comparison of written feedback and written plus verbal feedback methods in performance management
Erdemli, Cigdem; Somer, H. Canan; Bilgiç, Reyhan (2007-01-01)
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of two different modes of feedback on the reactions of supervisors (raters) and subordinates (ratees) and also on the performance of the subordinates. Using a quasi-experimental design, 77 supervisors giving feedback and 71 subordinates receiving feedback participated in the study. Supervisors were assigned to either Written Plus Verbal Feedback Condition or Verbal Feedback Condition. After receiving a general performance appraisal training and a feedback...
A communicative competence perspective on difficulties l2 reading
Bayraktar, Hasan; Bear, Joshua; Department of English Language Teaching (2005)
The primary objective of this study was to investigate the reading difficulties (problems) of Freshman EFL students attending the Department of Foreign Language Education at Middle East Technical University. The study attempted to integrate notions of strategic, linguistic, discourse and sociolinguistic competence into the construct of reading: a first approximation at integrating and applying a model of reading ability to a model of communicative language ability. To examine the reading difficulties and fa...
