What's the difference between competence and competentness?

Competence


Definition:

  • (n.) Alt. of Competency

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Similar to intact crayfish, animals with an isolated protocerebrum-eyestalk complex, exhibit competent circadian rhythms in the electroretinogram (ERG).
  • (2) In the measurement, enzyme-labeled and unlabeled antigens (Ag* and Ag) were allowed to compete in binding to the antibody (Ab) under conditions where Ag* much less than Ab much less than Ag.
  • (3) The evidence suggests that by the age of 15 years many adolescents show a reliable level of competence in metacognitive understanding of decision-making, creative problem-solving, correctness of choice, and commitment to a course of action.
  • (4) In South Africa, health risks associated with exposure to toxic waste sites need to be viewed in the context of current community health concerns, competing causes of disease and ill-health, and the relative lack of knowledge about environmental contamination and associated health effects.
  • (5) This competence persists over the eight measurement points.
  • (6) Dilemmas of trust, confidentiality, and professional competence highlight the limits of professional ethical codes.
  • (7) Skin allografts survived longer on ALS-treated, complement-deficient (C5 negative) recipients than on ALS-treated, complement-competent (C5 positive) recipients.
  • (8) LM-fragment-8 competes for this binding to the same extent as unlabelled LM (75%), while fragment PI is inactive and fibronectin (FN) competes by about 30% only.
  • (9) These agents compete with catecholamines at beta-adrenoreceptors.
  • (10) It is also suggested that alpha-lactalbumin, GTP, UDP, and CDP compete with the binding of HRP to a glycosyltransferase on the cell surface.
  • (11) Well-refined x-ray structures of the liganded forms of the wild-type and a mutant protein isolated from a strain defective in chemotaxis but fully competent in transport have provided a molecular view of the sugar-binding site and of a site for interacting with the Trg transmembrane signal transducer.
  • (12) The antagonist drugs showed the following order of potency to displace [3H]prazosin: prazosin much greater than phentolamine much greater than corynanthine greater than pyrextramine much greater than yohimbine much greater than piperoxan greater than benextramine greater than idazoxan; for the agonists: clonidine much greater than (-)-noradrenaline much greater than (-)-adrenaline much greater than phenylephrine, while other drugs, such as (-)-propranolol, dopamine, (-)-isoproterenol and serotonin only competed with the alpha-1-ligand at concentrations above 20 microM.
  • (13) Application of the chemoattractant, cAMP (20 nM), to aggregation-competent cells induced a rapid increase in [Ca2+]i within 1-2 s, and the [Ca2+]i level increased to about four-fold higher than the resting [Ca2+]i within 30 s of chemotactic stimulation.
  • (14) The present study was designed to evaluate competence of KM231 for immunotherapy of cancer.
  • (15) Quality of anaesthesia and risk of intoxication are competing principles in IVRA.
  • (16) Mutant polypeptides have been characterized that are competent and incompetent for association with GRP78-BiP.
  • (17) Lindane proved to be ten times more potent in competing with 35S-TBPS binding in electric organ than rat brain, while the bicyclophosphate analogs displayed up to three orders of magnitude greater affinity for rat brain over electric organ.
  • (18) In Experiment 1, subjects performing in groups of four were compared with individual performers both in competing and noncompeting (coacting) conditions.
  • (19) Competent nursing care depends on open and effective communication between the nurse and the patient.
  • (20) Furthermore, asialo-Pg does not compete with native Pg for cell binding.
