“…The response variable for the intensity of the ZT illusion has seven distinct levels of responses going from “no ringing” to “loud and clear” which are ordered by their rank similar to a Likert‐type scale (Harpe, ; Pell, ; Stevens, ). Thus, the rating scale of the intensity of ZT illusion may be considered as an ordinal level variable.…”

Several studies have demonstrated the neural correlates of chronic tinnitus. However, we still do not understand what happens in the acute phase. Past studies have established Zwicker tone (ZT) illusions as a good human model for acute tinnitus. ZT illusions are perceived following the presentation of a notched noise stimulus, that is, broadband noise with a narrow band‐stop filter (notch). In the current study, we compared the neural correlates of the reliable perception of a ZT illusion to that which is not. We observed changes in evoked and total theta power in wide‐spread regions of the brain particularly in the temporal‐parietal junction, pregenual anterior cingulate cortex/ventromedial prefrontal cortex (pgACC/vmPFC), parahippocampus during perception of the ZT illusion. Furthermore, we observe that increased theta power significantly predicts a gradual positive change in the intensity of the ZT illusion. Such changes may suggest a malfunction of the sensory gating system that enables habituation to redundant stimuli and suppresses hyperactivity. It could also suggest a successful retrieval of the memory of the missing frequencies, resulting in their conscious perception indicating the role of higher‐order processing in the mechanism of action of ZT illusions. To establish a more concrete relationship between ZT illusion and chronic tinnitus, future longitudinal studies following up a much larger sample of participants who reliably perceive a ZT illusion to see if they develop tinnitus at a later stage is essential. This could inform us if the ZT illusion may be a precursor to chronic tinnitus.

“…A set of the questionnaire used as instrument to collect a necessary data namely, demography profile and expertise point of views. Likert scale (Harpe, 2015;Likert, 1932) on Important (1 -Very Important, 2-Important, 3 -Neutral, 4-Unimportant, 5-Very Unimportant) implement on the influence entity in heritage building by item in each case. A pilot test was conducted to identify issues (Tadeu & Lucas, 2013) and to obtain information on the improvement of the questionnaire (Mohamed et al, 2012) that may arise before, during and after the actual data collection process.…”

“…According to Chua Yan Piaw, (2013), due to a Likert scale approach, the mean value was not calculated because the input data is an ordinal data, the proper and a fair analysis for the output is mode and median approach. This rule stated that nonparametric statistical tests were appropriate, and the arithmetic mean the recommended statistic for interval data (Harpe, 2015), not an ordinal data. .…”

The paper purposely to confirm the keys entity from the literature reviews targeting expertise as advisors for the organisation management to establish an existence required for mitigates in the decision-making process. Stratified random sampling with questionnaires as a research instrument and 129 expertise in heritage fields as a factor analysis meticulously set up. Preliminaries finding indicates with statistic confirmation that there are ten main entities namely social, economic, function, physical, infrastructure, technology, law and regulation, politic, environment and finance. The confirmatory result towards entity will contribute to the preliminaries stage procedure in developing an adaptive reuse model to organization management.

“…The options were: strongly disagree, disagree, neither agree nor disagree, agree, strongly agree, with numerical values 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, respectively. Likert scales, a common measurement method in educational contexts, are based on the idea that some underlying phenomenon can be measured by aggregating an individual's rating of students' feelings, attitudes, or perceptions related to a series of individual statements or items (Harpe, 2015). Mathematical attitudes and attitudes towards mathematics are not the same.…”

New versions of GeoGebra, available from www.geogebra.org, allow to create interactive applications in three dimensions that can be used to illustrate the content that requires a representation in space, in addition to the previous possibilities in 2D. The ease with which objects can be changed using sliders, forcing them to take different positions, allows dynamic observation of what teachers want to show.The surfaces represented by a second degree equation in x, y and z are called quadrics. The most important ones are the ellipsoids, the hyperboloids, elliptic cones and paraboloids. For these surfaces, application indicating the traces in the coordinate planes and in planes parallel to them were prepared. Different selfassessments were also designed.The aim of this work is to describe these apps and briefly discuss the experience of using them. The results of a survey in order to give the students' opinion on the tools are also presented.
