Our ROI analysis revealed that in five of the ROIs identified (ACC, bilateral IPL, left DLPFC and left PMC), BOLD activity in the objective context was higher for free trials as compared with instructed trials.
In order to make the two contexts comparable, we included a VAS rating in the objective context.
There is a strong and categorical difference between free and instructed trials in the objective context.
There was a trend in all ROIs identified (except the precuneus) for an inversion of the pattern of BOLD activation in the subjective context, as compared with the objective context.
For that, a multi-objective context was adopted which based on Pareto dominance.
In the context of transmission of infection, calculations of PIR1 and PIR2 provide an objective measure for the timeliness of reporting and interventions.
Overhead is an objective criterion for non-profits.
SPONET has four distinct objectives, providing (1) a rich context for location-aware networking, (2) robust cognitive networking, (3) extensibility with various routing protocols, and (4) a convenient programming interface for delay-tolerant applications.
By being task based the scenarios strung individual events and activities together in purposeful sequences and, thereby, provided an intermediate level of description that was both an instantiation of overall work objectives and a fairly persistent context for the gradual elaboration of subtasks.
Based on the grading time necessary for such large numbers of students, examinations for these classes tend to be made up primarily of multiple-choice questions and in this context, provide an objective, time-efficient method for evaluating student performance (Straits and Gomez-Zwiep, 2009).
