概括
对于全面的教育文献搜索,ERIC是不够的. 使用多个专业数据库,如教育源,ProQuest和盖尔确保了更广泛的期刊覆盖范围,以更好地合成研究.
科学领域:
- 教育研究教育教育研究
- 图书馆和信息科学 图书馆和信息科学
背景情况:
- 教育科学研究所的ERIC数据库被广泛推用于教育文献搜索.
- 然而,专门的数据库可能会提供独特的期刊覆盖范围.
- 综合性文献评论需要仔细选择数据库.
研究的目的:
- 调查四个专业教育数据库之间的期刊覆盖面的重叠.
- 确定ERIC在多大程度上足以进行全面的教育文献搜索.
主要方法:
- 分析了四个数据库的期刊覆盖范围:教育来源 (EBSCO),教育数据库 (ProQuest),ERIC (教育科学研究所) 和教育者的参考资料 (Gale).
- 量化比较独特的期刊收录和数据库之间的重叠.
- 分析的独一无二期刊总数: 4,695.
主要成果:
- 存在显著的重叠,但大量的期刊是单个数据库 (2,831的4,695) 独有的.
- 许多期刊在分析的数据库中只覆盖了两个或三个.
- 单独的ERIC并不涵盖所有相关的教育期刊.
结论:
- 综合证据和文献评论从利用多个专门的教育数据库中受益.
- 仅仅依赖ERIC可能会导致不完整的文献搜索.
- 对于全面的教育研究,建议采用多数据库方法.

The Evidence for Evolution
48.2K
Genetic variations accumulating within populations over generations give rise to biological evolution. Evolutionary changes can result in the formation of novel varieties and entire new species. These changes are responsible for the diverse forms of life inhabiting the planet. The evidence for evolution suggests that all living organisms descended from common ancestors.

In statistics, several tools are used to interpret the data. Measures of central tendency represent the characteristics of the data, such as mean, median, and mode. Additionally, measures of variance like standard deviation and range are used to find the spread of data from the mean. Relative standing measures the distance between data locations. Commonly used measures of relative standings are percentile, z score, and quartiles.

Data are individual items of information obtained from a population or sample. Data may be classified as qualitative (categorical), quantitative continuous, or quantitative discrete. Because it is not practical to measure the entire population in a study, researchers use samples to represent the population. A random sample is a representative group from the population chosen by using a method that gives each individual in the population an equal chance of being included in the sample. Random...

Fischer Projections
16.6K
Learning to draw Fischer projections of molecules and understanding their relevance plays a crucial role in the visual depiction of organic molecules. A Fischer projection is a two-dimensional projection on a planar surface to simplify the three-dimensional wedge–dash representation of molecules. This is especially helpful in the case of molecules with multiple chiral centers that can be difficult to draw. Here, all the bonds of interest are represented as horizontal or vertical lines. While...

Newman Projections

Different notations are used to represent the three-dimensional structure of molecules on two-dimensional surfaces. One of the most commonly used representations is the dash-wedge formula. The dashed wedges, solid wedges, and the plane lines indicate the groups situated behind the plane, coming out of the plane, and in the plane, respectively.

Special Staining Techniques
1.3K
Specialized staining techniques play a vital role in microbiology by enabling the visualization of specific bacterial structures that remain undetectable with standard microscopy methods. These techniques not only enhance the structural visualization of bacterial cells but also provide critical insights into their pathogenicity and classification. Additionally, they support diagnostic and research endeavors in microbiology by identifying key bacterial features.Capsule Staining for Virulence...
