Noncompliance
Definition:
(n.) Neglect of compliance; failure to comply.
Example Sentences:

(11) Treatment consisted of a standardized parent training program to modify child noncompliance.

(14) Either patient noncompliance or true medication failure accounted for treatment failure.
(15) Consequences of such high noncompliance on the efficiency and effectiveness of health-care delivery systems are dramatic and obvious.

Nonperformance
Definition:
(n.) Neglect or failure to perform.
Example Sentences:
(1) Breast self-examination was initiated by 36 per cent of previous nonperformers: and testicular self-examination, by 23 per cent.
(2) The influence of sound localization behavior on unit activity in the frontal cortex of awake rhesus monkeys was examined by comparing responses under three behavioral conditions: auditory localization, during which a response was required to the location of a sound (broad-band noise) source; auditory detect, during which a response was required to indicate the occurrence of the sound regardless of location; visual localization, during which no sounds were presented and a response was required to the location of a visual stimulus; and nonperform, presentation of auditory stimuli as in the first two conditions, but with the animal sitting passively.
(3) Sixty-two percent of the postarcuate population responded during auditory localization, 32% responded during auditory detect, and only 18% responded to acoustic stimuli presented in the nonperforming condition.
(4) These units had no or weak responses when the same sound stimuli were presented in the auditory detect task or when a monkey received the sound stimuli in a nonperforming condition.
(5) Ratings of difficulty, nonperformance, and assistance received should not be assumed to be interchangeable nor to reflect underlying physical ability.
(6) For most units studied the response evoked by the auditory stimulus was greater in the performance condition than in the nonperformance condition.
(7) We investigated the persistence of SSR amplitude change over nonperformance periods of up to 38 days.
(8) In case of the regional hematomas, the causes were incomplete hemostasis of the dura mater or the bone in all four patients, nonperformance of central stay sutures in three, systemic hypertension in one, and hypofibrinogenemia in one.
