    Quadruple Fixed Point Theorems for Nonlinear Contractions on Partial Metric Spaces
    (Univ Politecnica Valencia, Editorial Upv, 2014) Karapinar, Erdal; Tas, Kenan
    The notion of coupled fixed point was introduced by Guo and Laksmikantham [12]. Later Gnana Bhaskar and Lakshmikantham in [11] investigated the coupled fixed points in the setting of partially ordered set by defining the notion of mixed monotone property. Very recently, the concept of tripled fixed point was introduced by Berinde and Borcut [7]. Following this trend, Karapmar[19] defined the quadruple fixed point. In this manuscript, quadruple fixed point is discussed and some new fixed point theorems are obtained on partial metric spaces.

    Oral Trail Making Task as a Discriminative Tool for Different Levels of Cognitive Impairment and Normal Aging
    (Oxford Univ Press, 2013) Bastug, G.; Ozel-Kizil, E. T.; Sakarya, A.; Altintas, O.; Kirici, S.; Altunoz, U.
    The Trail Making Test (TMT) is a useful measure of executive dysfunction in elderly subjects. This study aims to investigate the discriminative validity of the oral version of the TMT (OTMT), which can be administered to subjects with visual or motor disabilities, in elderly patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI; n = 30), Alzheimer's disease (AD; n = 30), and healthy controls (HCs; n = 25). The WAIS-R Digit Span Backwards Subscale, written form of the Trail Making Task, the Clock Drawing Test, the AD Assessment Scale-Cognitive Subscale, and the OTMT were also administered to all participants in order to examine the concurrent validity of the OTMT. The OTMT part B discriminated between patients with MCI, AD, and HC correctly. The OTMT completion time was not correlated with age, but was negatively correlated with education. In conclusion, the OTMT (mostly part B) is a valid and practical measurement tool for different levels of cognitive impairment, especially for patients with visual or motor disabilities for whom the classical written form is not feasible.
