此為上周五(09/27)寫作討論段落：
The SEM
of the 3 MMQ scales ranged from 4.8 to 6.6, which are similar1 to that in a previous study (SEM = 3.5 to 4.4).
These
findings suggest2 that the scores of the MMQ are
affected by random measurement errors and thus, the scores of the MMQ appear to
fluctuate through the levels of individuals' memory function remained
unchanged.3 The random measurement error of the MMQ4 may
result from the interval between two assessments. Specifically, because the 3
months was relatively large for the examination of test-retest reliability of self-perceived memory function (e.g., 4
weeks-interval), which may yield individual variability in their memory
function and thus, lead to larger SEM5
values. Therefore,6 the MMQ may be
unstable for repeated assessments over 3 months.
1 兩研究SEM數據沒有overlap的地方，不適合用similar，且未說明time interval差異，無法呼應可能原因的解釋。
2 findings
suggest在語意上是指「本研究發現…」，但本來每個測驗都會受到隨機測量誤差的影響，非本研究才證實這點。因此使用詞彙不恰當。
3 於討論段落中不需要在重複說明SEM之定義（綠底）。
4 使用The random
measurement error of the MMQ 為該句子之主詞不易讓讀者理解，宜改寫成the
SEM of the MMQ。
5 句子中突然出現test-retest
reliability，這不易讓不瞭解心理計量特性的讀者理解。
6 larger SEM直接寫出此結果為高估或低估，句子會更為明確。
7 結語句宜呼應段落主旨(SEM)之概念，目前寫法比較像是再測信度的概念。

修正後段落：
The SEM of the 3 MMQ scales
(4.8 to 6.6 at 3 months) in our study was slightly greater than that of a previous study (SEM= 3.5 to
4.4 at 1 month). These findings indicate that
the scores of the MMQ are affected by random measurement errors and thus, the
scores of the MMQ appear to fluctuate through the levels of individuals' memory
function remained unchanged. A
possible reason for the SEM of the MMQ is
caused by the time interval between two assessments (i.e., 3 months) was
relatively long compared to previous studies (i.e., 1 month). Generally, the
longer is the time gap, the greater is the chance that the two assessments may
change between two assessments (due to random error) and thus, lead to
the overestimation of the SEM values. Therefore, our results
revealed that the MMQ may be unstable for two assessments over 3 months due to
random measurement errors.
[回應上述第1點]
修正為slightly greater並加上兩研究的time
interval，以呼應後續可能原因之解釋。
[回應上述第2點]
修正為findings indicate。
[回應上述第3點]
詳見[問題2]
[回應上述第4點]
修正主詞為the SEM of the MMQ
[回應上述第5點]
修正原先語句之表達方式(黃底)，避免模糊字詞如原先的test-retest reliability
[回應上述第6點]
修正overestimation of the SEM
[回應上述第7點]
修正結語句，待與老師澄清是否有呼應SEM之概念。
問題1] 若考量樣本依賴性的問題，本研究結果(SMC老人)適合去和先前研究(健康老人)比較嗎??
[問題2]
若討論段落中不需要在重複說明SEM之定義，那僅在前言中提到SEM概念
”The SEM is a measure of
the degree to which measured test scores are spread around a true score.”，對讀者而言會不會不易了解?? 還是應該放在哪個章節段落說明較為適切?
