The aim of the study was to check the association of the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale with the prescription complexity and with the patient’s level of knowledge about the prescription. A cross-sectional study was conducted by means of an interview…

This thesis presents a new approach to building a design for testability (DFT) system. The system takes a digital circuit description, finds out the problems in testing it, and suggests circuit modifications to correct those problems. The key contributions of…

The Intellectual Creation Diffusion Service (SeDiCi) of the UNLP was created with the main objective of communicating to the society all the knowledge acquired in different academic fields of our university. This is how we can return all the efforts…

This research is concerned with designing representations for analytical reasoning problems (of the sort found on the GRE and LSAT). These problems test the ability to draw logical conclusions. A computer program was developed that takes as input a straightforward…

This thesis describes two programs for generating tests for digital circuits that exploit several kinds of expert knowledge not used by previous approaches. First, many test generation problems can be solved efficiently using operation relations, a novel representation of circuit…

The purpose of this investigation is to evaluate whether or not the allocation of time proposed in the Music Study Guide, adapted from the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) guidelines, is consistent and adequate for students with minimal musical knowledge.…
