Young workers should know what employers' standards are for hiring and job performance and behave accordingly in order to obtain and keep a job. This finding is based on a study that examined the perceptions of high school graduates and their employers' reports of hiring and job performance standards and employment outcomes. High school students completed questionnaires at the beginning and end of their senior year and one year after graduation. Their employers were surveyed at the one-year...

Document number CIA-RDP86S00588R000200210002-3 declassified and released through the CIA's CREST database. Previously available only on four computers located outside of Washington D.C., the Agency was successfully pressured into putting the files online as a result of a MuckRock lawsuit and the efforts of Emma Best. The metadata was collected by Data.World, and the files are now being archived and made text searchable by the Internet Archive.

Merit pay systems based on output may fail because establishing valid standards for productivity that account for educational goals, individual student needs, and the value of cooperative efforts is extremely difficult. Systems based on evaluations may fail if employees are not convinced that the systems lack bias. Research on the characteristics of successful merit pay systems was conducted in 6 public school districts that had used merit pay for at least 5 years and either used pay...

This paper describes high-order accurate Godunov-type schemes for the computation of weak solutions of hyperbolic conservation laws that are essentially non-oscillatory. It is shown that the problem of designing such schemes reduces to a problem in approximation of functions, namely that of reconstructing a piecewise smooth function from its given oscillations. To solve this reconstruction problem we introduce a new interpolation technique that when applied to piecewise smooth data gives...

Construction guide specifications are the primary reference documents used by designers in preparing the descriptions of technical requirements of individual construction projects. Commercially available specifications lack the precision needed in DoD's contracting and procurement environment and would require DoD to make extensive changes to the documents and procedures supporting the military construction process. Rather than adopt a commercial system, it is recommended that DoD coordinate...

The major water resource problem in the Aloha-Rigolette area is agricultural flooding. The agricultural area represents 18 percent of the basin and is nearly surrounded by wooded hill lands that constitute the remainder of the basin. Runoff from the entire basin is funneled through the flat plain of the agricultural area into a control structure located at the southern end of the basin. Other water-related resources such as fish and wildlife, recreation, and water quality were investigated....

Important features of a Quality Assurance (QA) plan which could support a lower factor of safety structural design are explored. A survey of industry QA plans was used to identify significant management attributes. A methodology to develop important technical attributes and effectively engineer the QA plan to any GRP ship is presented. This methodology is then applied to a specific ship. A recent feasibility design of an advanced Minewarfare Ship (MWSX), which was performed by the authors, is...

A search is undertaken for an object thought to be present with an unknown probability, using a detection scheme whose efficiency is also uncertain. After a certain interval, the search is called off, with the object unfound; what are the posterior-to-experiment estimates of presence and detection efficiency? It is shown that those two unknown quantities interact in an interesting manner as the unsuccessful search goes on. Additional keywords: Bayesian estimation; mathematical models; Charts....

LEDs of the ternary alloy GaAs(.7)P(.3), were irradiated with a 30 MeV electron beam. The effects this exposure had on peak wavelength, absolute and relative light output intensities, and current-forward bias characteristics were studied. A simple model of LED current controlling mechanisms is described and a mathematical approach for deriving a descriptive damage-constant is provided. Observed irradiation effects consisted of increased current and decreased light output intensity for a given...

Several hundred megajoules of energy lasting for several seconds are required for magnetic fusion experiments. Such high energy can be stored as inertial energy in an alternator which is brought up to speed slowly. The alternator is then discharged through a thyristor converter to magnets which produce sustain the plasma. A major portion of the inertial stored energy, for reversed field pinch experiments in Los Alamos, will be dissipated in charging the magnetizing coil to produce the plasma....

The major developments in understanding the mechanisms of stress-corrosion cracking (SCC) in Al-Zn-Mg and Al-Mg alloys are briefly reviewed. In particular, evidence for the involvement of hydrogen embrittlement in the SCC mechanisms is addressed. Specifically, the effect of the loading mode on SCC, the role of grain boundary segregation in cracking, and our overall view of the mechanisms of SCC are discussed.

Because of the desire to improve operational readiness and to simultaneously reduce support costs, there is a great deal of interest in the military services in implementing multi-echelon models for determination of adequate but economical stocking levels for spare parts. Two mathematical models presently used--METRIC and MOD-METRIC--are inefficient and require excessive time for computation. In an attempt to solve these deficiencies a heuristic model was developed at the Naval Postgraduate...

Fourteen controlled studies were coded in terms of methodological quality (high vs. low) and race-ethnicity (Caucasian vs. Black and Hispanic). An analogue to analysis of variance conducted on weighted unbiased effect sizes indicated examiner familiarity produced a significant effect, with Caucasian and minority examinees' test performance raised by .05 and .72...

The interaction of a strong, monochromatic beam of light with liquid Carbon Disulfide can produce a backscattered wave that is a phase conjugate replica of the input beam. A Neodymium-glass laser focused into an unguided cell returned 33% of the incident energy in the backscattered wave. Normal reflection from the glass surfaces of the lens and cell can account for only 2.5% of this energy. Observations were also made concerning the distortion repairing qualities of the phase conjugate wave and...

In preparation for the eventual testing of a drifting environmental acoustic buoy, the ambient noise in an area off the Monterey, California coast was measured using two analysis methods. Narrow band processing (9 Hz) was compared to 1/3 octave band processing for frequencies up to 2500 Hz. Noise generation due to shipping and local wind was examined for the contribution of each to the noise spectrum. Noise spectrum levels measured using either approach agreed within 2dB, usually within 1 dB....
