A Hard Test of Individual Heterogeneity in Response Scale Usage: Evidence From Qatar
(
Oxford University Press
, 2016 , Article Review)
A common approach to correcting for interpersonal differences in response category
thresholds in surveys is the use of anchoring vignettes. Here we present results from
the first applications of anchoring vignettes in ...

Screening serum for the presence of prostate specific antigen (PSA) belongs to the most common approach for the detection of prostate cancer. This review (with 156 refs.) addresses recent developments in PSA detection based ...
Review on Surfactant Flooding: Phase Behavior, Retention, IFT, and Field Applications
(
American Chemical Society
, 2017 , Article Review)
Surfactant flooding is an important technique used in enhanced oil recovery to reduce the amount of oil in pore space of matrix rock. Surfactants are injected to mobilize residual oil by lowering the interfacial tension ...
Elastomer/thermoplastic modified epoxy nanocomposites: The hybrid effect of 'micro' and 'nano' scale
(
Elsevier Ltd
