  2. Goniometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goniometer

    A half-circle protractor marked in degrees (180°). A protractor is a measuring instrument, typically made of transparent plastic, for measuring angles. Some protractors are simple half-discs or full circles. More advanced protractors, such as the bevel protractor, have one or two swinging arms, which can be used to help measure the angle.

  3. Speed square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_square

    The square is pivoted on the (left side 2x4) and locked into the ⊾ 20° degree index at the red marked line. The SECOND image displays ⊾ X = 70° on the clear protractor that is graduated in 360°, ⊾ X = 20° on the Aluminum angle square. Both red lines ⊾ X are Parallel and thereby congruent.

  4. Craniometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Craniometry

    A human skull and measurement device from 1902. Craniometry is measurement of the cranium (the main part of the skull), usually the human cranium.It is a subset of cephalometry, measurement of the head, which in humans is a subset of anthropometry, measurement of the human body.

  5. Psychrometrics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychrometrics

    The protractor on the upper left of the chart has two scales. The inner scale represents sensible-total heat ratio (SHF). The outer scale gives the ratio of enthalpy difference to humidity difference. This is used to establish the slope of a condition line between two processes.

  6. Turn (angle) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turn_(angle)

    For example, the degree is defined such that one turn is 360 degrees. Using metric prefixes, the turn can be divided in 100 centiturns or 1000 milliturns, with each milliturn corresponding to an angle of 0.36°, which can also be written as 21′ 36″. [16] [17] A protractor divided in centiturns is normally called a "percentage protractor".

  7. Psychometrics - Wikipedia

    Psychometrics is a field of study within psychology concerned with the theory and technique of measurement.Psychometrics generally covers specialized fields within psychology and education devoted to testing, measurement, assessment, and related activities. [1]

  9. Mental chronometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mental_chronometry

    Response time increased roughly linearly as the orientation of the letter deviated from upright (0 degrees) to inverted (180 degrees), and then decreases again until it reaches 360 degrees. The authors concluded that the subjects mentally rotate the image the shortest distance to upright, and then judge whether it is normal or mirror-reversed.
