To assess a person's level of consciousness, one checks whether they are alert, that is, whether they are able to respond when spoken to and can open their eyes, whether they react to verbal stimuli, and whether they react to pain stimuli—for example, by moving or groaning when tapped on the shoulder. If a person does not react at all, they are considered unresponsive. 4, record 1, English, - level%20of%20consciousness

Pour vérifier l'état de conscience d'une personne, on détermine si elle est alerte, c'est-à-dire si elle est capable de répondre lorsqu'on lui parle et d'ouvrir les yeux, si elle réagit aux stimuli verbaux, et si elle réagit aux stimuli douloureux, par exemple, en bougeant ou en gémissant lorsqu'on lui tape l'épaule.

La variété moyenne tendra à se rapprocher des moyennes, sa ligne passera donc par 0 et sa pente sera l'unité. Les variétés avec interactions, celles qui sont responsables des effets GE dans l'analyse de variance, auront des pentes qui s'éloigneront de 1; une variété stable, qui ne répond pas aux environnements, aura une pente faible (b<1), une variété non stable ou qui répond aura une forte pente (b>1). 1, record 17, French, - vari%C3%A9t%C3%A9%20avec%20interactions

The strictly average variety will tend to agree with the mean, so its line will pass through zero and have a slope of unity. Interacting varieties, those responsible for the GE items in the analysis of variance, will have slopes not equal to one; a "stable" variety, one unresponsive to environments, will have a low slope(b<1), an unstable or responsive variety a steep slope(b>1). 1, record 18, English, - average%20variety
