In mathematics the concept of a measure generalizes notions such as "length", "area", and "volume" (but not all of its applications have to do with physical sizes). Informally, given some base set, a "measure" is any consistent assignment of "sizes" to...

In this paper we describe the role that mathematics plays in measurement science at NIST. We first survey the history behind NIST's current work in this area, starting with the NBS Math Tables project of the l930s. We then provide examples of more...

Abstract This article is a report of the development of a new instrument to measure students' attitudes toward mathematics, and to determine the underlying dimensions of the instrument by examining the responses of 545 students. The data represent all grade levels and...

Q: I'm looking for a way to develop a performance evaluation system that would allow for consistent measurement of "values," such as attendance, customer service, teamwork, etc. Can you suggest ways that I might implement such a system?A: One of the best ways to build...
