	HSWG - Quality of Health Info. - Policy Paper
		The criteria presented herein were developed by focusing on health information websites intended primarily for the general public, and do not address information on mailing lists, listservs, bulletin boards, chat rooms, etc., where it is easier to post information with greater anonymity.
		To ensure objectivity in the development of the criteria, 18 individuals with diverse backgrounds, including leaders of medical schools, libraries, pharmaceutical associations, government agencies, professional medical associations, and consumer groups, were invited to attend.
		The criteria were categorized as either "Essential," "Important," or "Desirable," and these ratings served as a starting point for further refinement of the criteria at the second Health Summit Meeting.

	Diagnostic Criteria for Alcohol Abuse and Dependence - Alcohol Alert No. 30-1995 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Diagnostic criteria allow clinicians to plan treatment and monitor treatment progress; make communication possible between clinicians and researchers; enable public health planners to ensure the availability of treatment facilities; help health care insurers to decide whether treatment will be reimbursed; and allow patients access to medical insurance coverage (1-3).
		The DSM diagnostic criteria for psychiatric disorders are the criteria primarily used in the United States.
		Such criteria provide agreement as to the constellation of symptoms that indicate the alcohol dependence syndrome and allow researchers all over the world to communicate clearly as to what kinds of disorders are being studied.

	2004 IUCN Red List - Categories and Criteria (version 2.3)
		The quantitative values presented in the various criteria associated with threatened categories were developed through wide consultation and they are set at what are generally judged to be appropriate levels, even if no formal justification for these values exists.
		The criteria for the threatened categories are to be applied to a taxon whatever the level of conservation action affecting it.
		The criteria are most appropriately applied to whole taxa at a global scale, rather than to those units defined by regional or national boundaries.

	AS-IF (asperger information) - Diagnosis - Criteria (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		(Criteria as for autism; however it would be less usual for these to include either motor mannerisms or preoccupations with part-objects or non-functional elements of play materials).
		Criteria are not met for another specific Pervasive Developmental Disorder, or Schizophrenia.
		I think the big dilemma with diagnostic criteria is that they only exist in the first place because they are designed to identify the existence of a problem, so they are bound to be quite negative and focusing on the bad rather than the good.

	NQMC NQMC - Contact - Criteria for Inclusion of a Quality Measure
		Quality of care is the degree to which health care services for individuals and populations increase the likelihood of desired health outcomes and are consistent with current professional knowledge.
		A clinical performance measure is a subtype of quality measure that is a mechanism for assessing the degree to which a provider competently and safely delivers clinical services that are appropriate for the patient in the optimal time period.
		Note: If the measures do not meet one or more of these inclusion criteria, the submission forms will be returned to the submitter with a request for further documentation or development in the identified area.

	Memetic Selection Criteria
		These are the criteria that determine the overall fitness of a meme, whether it will maintain within an individual's memory and spread to other individuals, or be eliminated.
		The main criteria at the assimilation stage are novelty (facilitates assimilation by attracting the subject's attention) and simplicity (requires less processing for the meme to be understood).
		Table: a summary of the main selection criteria for memes, classified according to the stage during which they are most active, and the system responsible for the selection.

	Divisibility Criteria
		Divisibility criteria are ways of telling whether one number divides another without actually carrying the division through.
		Implicit in this definition is the assumption that the criteria in question affords a simpler way than the straight division to answer the question of divisibility.
		Divisibility criteria re constructed in terms of the digits that compose a given number.

	Training Records -- Setting Criteria
		Setting criteria is one of the most basic – and most difficult – skills a clicker trainer must learn.
		If your criterion was temporary criteria -- criteria that won't be present in the finished behavior -- and your dog made two or fewer errors in ten reps (80% or more correct responses in the session), you can increase your criteria.
		Set your criteria at an achievable level, and don’t increase until your dog is reliable at the current level.

	Criteria for Environmental directories award
		A"best" directory should be the most useful for the user in quickly finding latest quality information or data in the framework of the chosen topic: broad in the subtopics, connecting mainly quality sites, simple to use, performant and clear in browsing or search.
		The quality of the recorded objects can be a criteria if less records are present (case of a pre-selection of the objects to index).
		An encyclopedia should be self-sufficient to give the latest knowledge on a particular subject, and allow the reader to browse or search in order to know more details on particular chapters.

	Criteria for Assessing the Quality of Health Information on the Internet
		The goals are to develop criteria to assess the quality of health information on the Internet and to educate the consumer, the content provider, and the policymaker on these criteria.
		To ensure objectivity in the development of these criteria, a diverse group of individuals, including representatives of major professional, consumer, and government organizations attended (see Appendix C for a list of participants).
		It is important to note that there were no descriptions on the form that described the criteria in detail and it was apparent that some respondents had not used the White Paper definitions of the criteria in ranking them.

	Criteria (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Criteria is a word that means the standards by which we evaluate something.
		When you use a word such as good or bad or interesting or free--any abstraction really--you need to define it based on your own criteria and think about what the audience's criteria are.
		You won't come out and say "these are my criteria," but you will modify your argument by comparing your audience's criteria to your own and trying to determine where you have common ground or where you share an assumption.

	WHY NATIONAL AND FOREST MANAGEMENT UNIT LEVEL CRITERIA AND INDICATORS FOR SUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENT OF DRY FORESTS IN ...
		Criteria and indicators specific for dry forests in Asia have yet to be developed and implemented although indicators from other initiatives, such as the ones of ITTO and the Bhopal-India Initiative, could potentially be useful in monitoring sustainability of forest management activities in the ecosystems in the region.
		In developing criteria and indicators for the sustainable management of dry forests in this region, it is important to bear in mind results of considerable discussions and debate during past meetings of the ongoing international initiatives dealing with the identification of such tools.
		National-level sets of criteria and indicators for various regions of the world should be complemented by the development and implementation of sets of criteria and indicators defined for the forest management unit level.

	Criteria for inscription
		Revised regularly by the Committee, the criteria have evolve to match the evolution of the World Heritage concept itself.
		The criteria for the inclusion of cultural properties in the World Heritage List should always be seen in relation to one another and should be considered in the context of the definition set out in Article 1 of the Convention which is reproduced below:
		These criteria are defined by the Committee in its Operational Guidelines.

	GCC 3.3 Release Criteria - GNU Project - Free Software Foundation (FSF)
		However, a release candidate that does meet these criteria may not necessarily become the official release; there may be other unforseen issues that prevent release.
		For example, if support for the Intel Pentium II is required by the release criteria, it is nevertheless unlikely that GCC 3.3 would be released even though it did not support the Intel Pentium.
		The performance of the generated code of a release candidate should be at least as good as that of past releases of GCC since 2.95.3 on the benchmarks, and within at least 5% on the application tests.

	Testing the Surf: Criteria for Evaluating Internet Information Resources
		Criteria for print materials can in most cases be applied to the Internet domain, but evaluation criteria may be more critical in the "vanity publishing" environment of the Internet.
		Not all these criteria will be appropriate for all purposes, but the intention of a toolbox approach is that librarians and others selecting Internet resources can choose those criteria appropriate for their needs.
		A comparison of criteria stated in a sample of evaluation sites on the Internet shows that, while graphic design is important, browsability and organization are widely used criteria along with more "traditional" criteria such as currency, authority, and audience.

	Criteria for evaluation of Internet Information Resources
		This is a "toolbox" of criteria that enable Internet information sources to be evaluated for use in libraries, e.g.
		This criteria is less important where users are in a defined computing environment, such as a library's inhouse terminals.
		In terms of (a), users paying traffic charges are already having to consider the costs of connection, and may want include this in criteria for selection, for instance to favour text based rather than image intensive sites, if the image content is the same.

		Membership criteria also require that the candidate country must have created the conditions for its integration through the adjustment of its administrative structures, as underlined by the Madrid European Council in December 1995.
		Bearing in mind the progress achieved by these countries, the track record in implementing their commitments, and taking into account their preparatory work in progress and foreseen, the Commission considers that these countries will have fulfilled the economic and acquis criteria and will be ready for membership from the beginning of 2004.
		The Regular Reports point to a number of areas where further improvements need to be made in the context of the political and economic criteria and in relationship to the adoption, implementation and enforcement of the acquis.

	NOT-OD-05-002: NIH Announces Updated Criteria for Evaluating Research Grant Applications
		During consultation with the extramural scientific community that led to the development of the NIH Roadmap process, it was frequently mentioned that the criteria used to evaluate research grant applications were not placing appropriate emphasis on some important types of biomedical research (see http://nihroadmap.nih.gov/).
		The updated review criteria were adopted at the August 5, 2004 meeting of the Directors of the NIH Institutes and Centers.
		In their written critiques, reviewers will be asked to comment on each of the following criteria in order to judge the likelihood that the proposed research will have a substantial impact on the pursuit of these goals.
