The liquid state of matter is an intermediate phase between solid and gas. Like the particles of a solid, particles in a liquid are subject to intermolecular attraction; however, liquid particles have ...

If you characterize high-speed digital signals, you're surely familiar with the idea of separating jitter into components such as random jitter (RJ), deterministic jitter (DJ), periodic jitter (PJ), ...

What are your marketing metrics telling you? If you rely on the standard measurement tactics, probably not much. Consider a classic metric such as clickthrough rate. By most standards, a "successful" ...

The degree to which response artifacts introduce error into self-report measures has long been a matter of concern in the psychological literature. For example, it ...
