TL;DR: The authors compared the real-time language processing abilities of language-impaired and normal children using a word recognition reaction time paradigm, and found that the children who were less proficient than normal children at using their linguistic knowledge to develop linguistic representations of sentence meaning.
Abstract: Language-impaired children have been shown to exhibit a variety of post-sentence comprehension deficits. Comprehension, however, may also be assessed as it develops rather than after it has occurred. The present investigation compared the real-time language processing abilities of language-impaired and normal children using a word recognition reaction time paradigm. Children's reaction times across three word positions in three sentence type conditions were measured. Results showed that the language-impaired children used linguistic context to facilitate word recognition, but were slower to do so than their normally developing peers. The results were interpreted to suggest that language-impaired children are less proficient than normal children at using their linguistic knowledge to develop linguistic representations of sentence meaning. An on-line retrieval deficit or deficient connections among processing units (e.g., Rumelhart & McClelland, 1986a, 1986b; Waltz & Pollack, 1985) are suggested as likely sources of the language-impaired children's language processing difficulties.

TL;DR: A hands-on educational session on foot care teaching/learning approach for adults with diabetes may improve foot care practices temporarily, however, long term effects need to be studied to discern overall improvement ofFoot care practices and physical status of the feet.
Abstract: This study investigated the effectiveness of a "hands-on" foot care teaching/learning approach for adults with diabetes. By random assignment, the control group received a lecture presentation on foot care, while the experimental group participated in a hands-on session on foot care in addition to the lecture presentation. Data concerning the subjects' foot care knowledge and skills, the condition of their feet, and their level of HbA1c were gathered prior to and six months after the foot care educational sessions. No significant increases in knowledge about foot care were observed in the experimental group. The experimental group reported improvements in inspecting and washing their feet on a daily basis, and in care of the toenails. No significant differences were observed in the status of the subjects' feet. The HbA1c readings were significantly improved for both the experimental (t = 4.10, df = 10, p = 0.002) and control (t = 2.25, df = 9, p = 0.051) groups. A hands-on educational session may improve foot care practices temporarily. However, long term effects need to be studied to discern overall improvement of foot care practices and physical status of the feet.

TL;DR: The results of a study on dispersed photovoltaic (PV) generation on the Public Service Company of Oklahoma (PSO) system with simulated dispersed PV generation are presented in this article.
Abstract: Results of a study on dispersed photovoltaic (PV) generation on the Public Service Company of Oklahoma (PSO) system with simulated dispersed PV generation are presented. It is found that, with high penetrations of PV, as insolation changes, significant variations in power flows occur on transmission and subtransmission lines that may require changes in system protection and voltage control practices. >
