TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined how assessment center methods affect the way assessors organize and process assessment center information and affect the ratings they make, and found that the two methods for evaluating assessment center candidates affected the way the assessors organized the assessment centre information and affected the obtained ratings.
Abstract: Recently a number of authors have argued persuasively that performance ratings are influenced to a large extent by the way the rater selects, organizes, stores, and recalls information. Although the influence of the rater's cognitive processes on the obtained ratings has been considered in the job-performance evaluation literature, this issue has not been considered in the assessment center literature. The purpose of the present study was to examine how assessment center methods affect the way assessors organize and process assessment center information and affect the ratings they make. Independent groups of assessors underwent one of two methods for evaluating candidates in an assessment center. Data indicated differences in the convergent and discriminant validities and differences in the factor structures of the ratings for the two methods. The pattern of results suggested that the two methods for evaluating assessment center candidates affected the way the assessors organized the assessment center information and affected the obtained ratings. Future research should consider assessment center methods and assessors as sources of variation in assessment center ratings.

TL;DR: The purpose was to simplify the task of instructing patients with SBS in a diet that restricts all categories of food substances that may be poorly absorbed: fat, lactose, insoluble fiber, oxalates, and concentrated sweets.
Abstract: Short-bowel syndrome (SBS) is a complex condition resulting from massive surgical resection of the intestinal tract. Nutrient malabsorption and metabolic alterations occur as a function of the portions of bowel removed and the length of remaining bowel segment. The nutrition management of SBS is challenging; many dietary restrictions are described, but inconsistently, throughout the literature. We compiled the restrictions and developed a comprehensive diet to reestablish adult patients with SBS on oral intake after surgery. Our purpose was to simplify the task of instructing patients with SBS in a diet that restricts all categories of food substances that may be poorly absorbed: fat, lactose, insoluble fiber, oxalates, and concentrated sweets. Suggestions to increase the transit time of ingested foods are included with the diet. Patients are taught the SBS diet after surgery and have bimonthly contact with the dietitian after leaving the hospital. Categories of restricted food substances, such as lactose, may be attempted and added back to the diet if they are tolerated. Bowel adaptation enhances tolerance to various dietary components over time. If sufficient bowel adaptation occurs, some patients are eventually able to return to an unrestricted diet.

TL;DR: The desire of the intense, highly competitive athlete to alter body weight without medical supervision commonly results in ineffective, hazardous, and counterproductive abuses that may often endanger health and may affect final growth potential in young wrestlers.
Abstract: The desire of the intense, highly competitive athlete to alter body weight without medical supervision commonly results in ineffective, hazardous, and counterproductive abuses that may often endanger health and may affect final growth potential in young wrestlers. Corrective nutrition practices are critical for the endurance athlete to train, compete, and avoid injuries effectively. The best preventive measure may be the education of wrestlers, parents, and coaches about the consequences of rapid and extreme weight loss and the significant role nutrition plays in successful training and competition for the endurance athlete, fluid replacement being a key concern. For as long as wrestlers are required to compete in different weight categories, the popular practice of competing at the lowest possible weight will probably continue. The best course of action nutrition professionals can take is to become acutely aware of the unique nutritional concerns of these athletes in order to make this practice as safe as possible.
