Effects of Elaborations Included in Textbooks: Large Time Cost, Reduced Attention, and Lower Memory for Main Ideas
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Educational Psychology Review"
DOI: 10.1007/s10648-020-09553-x
Abstract: Textbooks currently include many elaborations that describe, illustrate, and explain main ideas, increasing the length of these textbook chapters. The current study investigated if the cost in additional reading time that these elaborations impose is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10878-019-00385-2
Abstract: We consider a linear time–cost tradeoff problem (LTCTP) with multiple milestones under a comb graph. A time–cost tradeoff problem decides whether and how much to spend a cost to compress processing time of a job… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s12205-019-0447-x
Abstract: Freeform buildings differ from conventional buildings in a way that they have irregularly shaped facades. Oftentimes, freeform projects run behind schedule and over the budget. This study aimed at exploring factors that influence time and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s12351-017-0326-5
Abstract: We consider a stochastic model for the time–cost tradeoffs of an activity. In this model the activity can be undertaken by using several different resources, and the resource in use may change according to the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cities.2021.103257
Abstract: Abstract Inequalities are structured and reproduced in multiple dimensions and scales. From countries to neighborhoods, socio-spatial structure interacts with urban and public transportation development and results in uneven access to opportunities in manifold aspects. By… read more here.

Time-cost substitutability, earlycutting threat, and innovation timing
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Economics Letters"
DOI: 10.1016/j.econlet.2017.04.023
Abstract: With time-cost substitutability, a potential imitator could threat to “earlycut” the innovator by increasing experimental intensity. The earlycutting threat or uncertainty about the potential imitator’s experimental cost advantage usually drives down the new product’s quality… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jor.2019.09.012
Abstract: Changing surgical settings for orthopaedic procedures could drive reductions in operative time and reduce healthcare costs. Time-cost differences were calculated using estimated operating room costs by utilizing the ACS-NSQIP database. Multivariate analyses were generated from… read more here.
