The contribution of rubrics to the validity of performance assessment: a study of the conservation–restoration and design undergraduate degrees

Rubrics have attained considerable importance in the authentic and sustainable assessment paradigm; nevertheless, few studies have examined their contribution to validity, especially outside the domain of educational studies. This empirical study used a quantitative approach to analyse the validity of a rubrics-based performance assessment. Raters evaluated the performance of 84 first-year university students producing service-learning projects for the Conservation–Restoration and Design degrees. The study data comprised the 9240 scores given by two teachers and three student tutors, who assessed the students’ projects on three occasions during the semester. Factor analyses confirmed that the students attained the expected learning outcomes and made significant learning progress. This learning progress was also corroborated by analyses of variance. The attainment of the learning goals and the evidence of learning progress demonstrated the validity of the inferences drawn from the assessment system. In addition, the results highlighted the need to consider rubrics as a first-order teaching resource and not only as a scoring tool.     

企业文化、知识整合机制对企业间知识转移绩效的影响研究

 业从外部转移和引进知识是快速获取创新能力和竞争优势的有效途径,也是综合成本最低的途径。本文利用结构方程对企业文化、知识整合机制与企业间知识转移绩效的关系进行了实证研究,并选取我国环渤海地区的 155家高新科技企业作为实证研究对象。研究结果表明：（1）企业创新型文化不但对企业间知识转移绩效有显著的正向直接影响,而且还分别通过人员交流以及团队交流两个知识整合机制分别对企业间知识转移绩效产生显著的正向间接影响。（2）支持型文化对企业间知识转移绩效没有直接的显著影响,但通过程序交流,仍然对企业间知识转移绩效产生显著的正向影响;（3）知识整合机制包括人员交流、团队交流和程序交流,均对企业间知识转移绩效产生显著的正向直接影响。     

技术能力对新产品开发绩效的影响:以技术管理为调节变量

新产品开发作为企业经营过程中的重要环节,是企业获取竞争优势的重要源泉。从理论上分析了技术能力对新产品开发绩效的影响,以及技术管理的对技术能力与新产品开发绩效关系的调节作用。利用对151家企业调查的数据进行实证分析,研究结果发现,技术能力各要素均对新产品开发绩效有显著的正向影响作用,其中人员能力影响最大,其次是组织能力,再次是信息能力,设备能力影响较小。研究结果同时发现技术管理对人员能力、设备能力、信息能力、组织能力与新产品开发绩效的关系均具有正向调节作用。

Russians are the fastest and the youngest in the “Comrades Marathon”

The present retrospective study intended to determine age, performance, the role of nationality and participation trends across calendar years in runners competing in “Comrades Marathon”, the ultra-marathon with the longest tradition and the highest number of finishers worldwide. We analysed 235,467 finishers (40,211 women and 195,256 men) competing between 1994 and 2017. In women and men, Russians were the fastest (12.55 ± 2.03 km/h and 12.24 ± 2.93 km/h, respectively) and Indians the slowest (7.87 ± 0.64 km/h and 7.91 ± 0.60 km/h) (p < 0.001, η2 = 0.053 and η2 = 0.010, small effect size, ES). Also, Russians were the youngest (33.9 ± 4.6 and 36.3 ± 5.9 years, respectively) and Japanese the oldest (49.3 ± 9.6 and 51.4 ± 12.3 years, respectively) (p < 0.001, η2 = 0.011, small ES). Performance improved (r = 0.90 in women and r = 0.92 in men), age of finishers (r = 0.91 in women and r = 0.97 in men), participation (r = 0.92 in women and r = 0.87 in men) and sex difference in age increased (r = 0.71), whereas men-to-women ratio (r = ?0.91) and sex difference in performance (r = ?0.68) decreased across calendar years (p < 0.001). In summary, runners from Russia were the fastest and the youngest in both sexes. The knowledge of the relationship of nationality with performance, age and participation trends of finishers, and changes across calendar years are of practical importance for ultra-runners and coaches working with them.
