Performance evaluation of diving using the Borg CR100 Scale®
In some sports, as for example in diving, performance is measured as a subjectively evaluated artistic gestalt. The purpose of this study was to compare the traditional scale used in competitive diving with the Borg CR100 scale®, a scale where categorical expressions are placed where they perceptually belong on a ratio scale (e.g., G. Borg and E. Borg, 2001). Two internationally recognized Swedish judges volunteered as subjects and judged a sample of 45 videotaped dives, both with the traditional scale and with the CR scale. The results show that the Borg CR100 scale® worked at least equally well as the traditional scale, even though there might have been some tendency for translation between scales.</p
Borg II
This paper presents the results of the excavation, in 1989, of Viking Age settlement remains in the area named Borg II. The major structures were three house foundations: one long-house and two small sheds. The long-house (house II:1) measured 20.8x6.3m and can be typologically dated to the 10th century. Despite its small dimensions it was probably the new main house of the settlement, built as house I:1 was abandoned. In spite of the diminished social status of the inhabitants... there have still been obvious ideological considerations behind the construction of the house...</p
Interview with Paul Borg, School of Music faculty emeritus
Oral history interview with Illinois State University School of Music professor emeritus Dr. Paul Borg. The interview was conducted on July 20, 2023 by Paige Malloy, then an oral history intern at Milner library.
Borg shares details about his upbringing in Des Moines, Iowa, his academic journey from the University of Iowa to Indiana University, and his experiences getting his master’s degree in piano performance while serving in the Air Force. He discusses his transition to musicology, focusing on his doctoral research on manuscripts from colonial Guatemala.
Borg reflects on his positive first impressions of the music faculty at ISU circa 1980-1981, especially famed Panamanian composer Roque Cordero, and the collaborative nature of his work as an accompanist. He recalls one of his favorite classroom exercises relating to polyphony, which involved singing “Ut queant laxis,” the Gregorian chant from which modern-day scale vocalizations are derived.
Borg also recounts his involvement in shared governance at ISU, including serving on the University Advisory Committee and being elected as the School of Music representative to the Academic Senate. He played a significant role in revising university’s constitution and mission statement. Borg highlights the challenges in creating policies that address issues such as discrimination and disruptive behavior. He acknowledged the impact of changing technology on student learning, emphasizing the importance of balancing technology with engaging classroom activities.
Borg discusses receiving recognition for his teaching excellence, including earning the ISU College of Fine Arts Outstanding Teacher of the Year Award. He was also honored with the ISU Outstanding Service Award in 2012 for his contributions to shared governance and commitment to improving the university.
The interview concludes with Borg\u27s reflections on his retirement from Illinois State University in 2014 and his temporary return to Indiana University, where he became an adjunct professor and interim coordinator of the Latin American Music Center. When asked about his most significant accomplishment, Borg mentions teaching and governance but refrains from claiming a finished legacy.https://ir.library.illinoisstate.edu/facstaffoh/1000/thumbnail.jp
Borg scales – why so good? : Basic principles and some applications
The "Borg scales" are generally considered to be valid for measuring sensations, perceptions, experiences and feelings. An extended use of especially the Borg CR scales® is recommended since they are general intensity scales and their qualities enables an understanding of both levels of intensities and relations among them. When used together with Borg’s Range Model, interindividual and even intermodal comparisons are possible.</p
Intersubjective comparisons are possible with an accurate use of the Borg CR scales.
