Mortars have been the subject of a series of normative tests, in order to achieve a characterization, more or less detailed, which allows assessing the quality of these mortars in terms of standards.
Whatever its successor, the new form would have to pass the normative tests that fascism and other emerging forms of antiliberalism do not: this new unity "would have to prove itself before the tribunal of individuals, to show that their needs and potentialities are realized within it" (Marcuse 1968, 7).
A deficit in a cognitive domain was assumed when the patient's test score differed from the normative test data in one ore more standard deviation (z ≤−1).
During puberty and adolescent development there may be some overlap between normative testing of sexuality and gender roles in the one end, and gender dysphoria as a disorder in the other end of the spectrum.
Nevertheless, quasi-hyperbolic discounting lends itself to convenient testing against normative exponential discounting by testing whether the present bias value is significantly less than 1.
A substantial proportion of patients with DM1 (> 40%) scored worse in comparison to normative collectives on tests measuring executive, arithmetic, attention, speed and visuospatial abilities.
More than 40%% of the patients scored 1 SD < normative mean on tests associated with executive function (WCST, TMT B, CWT B), speed (TMT, Digit symbol, CWT B), attention (Digit span, Digit symbol, TMT), visuospatial- (RCFT, Object assembly, Block design) and arithmetic ability (Arithmetic).
Differences in physical fitness between patients and normative values were tested with the non-parametric Mann-Whitney U Test. Relationships between physical fitness and severity of fatigue and between physical fitness and quality of life were explored using the non-parametric Spearman correlation coefficient (rs).
The mean scores on cognitive test performance with available normative values (working memory tests and TMT) were within one standard deviation from the normative mean with the exception of TMT-B, which was between 1 and 2 standard deviations from the normative mean.
Adequate consistency is noted in the test normative sample (0.84) and in the current sample at baseline (0.80).
In Finnish normative data, the test-retest reliabilities of these subtests have varied with age from 0.84 to 0.91, and 0.31 to 0.34, respectively.
