Effects of feedback on task completion, time distribution and time allocation of graduate students

Article Abstract:

The impact of public and private feedback on the task completion, time allocation and time distribution of graduate students is studied. Results neither private nor public feedback had any impact on task completion. Feedback on task completion had indirect positive effects on time allocation and time distribution when students' activities a single domain were evaluated. However, no indirect positive effects were observed when students were evaluated based on stipend- and practicum-related activities.

Effects of immediate versus delayed feedback on error detection accuracy in a quality control simulation

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted to evaluate the impact of immediate versus delayed feedback in error detection accuracy. The study applied computer simulation for detecting errors in the sample stimuli. Samples were sequentially presented on a computer screen as subjects were asked to detect errors. Results show that self-paced immediate feedback conditions generated the greatest accuracy for error detection while machine-paced delayed feedback exhibited the least accuracy.

The effects of verbal and written supervisory feedback on staff compliance with assigned prompted voiding in a nursing home

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted to examine the effects of written and verbal supervisory feedback on staff compliance. The study applied both feedback types to a nursing home. It was expected that the procedures will increase prompted voiding frequency and generate constant continence improvements. Results show that although verbal feedback already exhibited a positive impact on worker compliance, a written feedback further enhanced the level of prompted voiding.
