This article provides researchers with a guide to properly construe and conduct analyses of conditional indirect effects, commonly known as moderated mediation effects. We disentangle conflicting definitions of moderated...

Non-biological experimental variation or "batch effects" are commonly observed across multiple batches of microarray experiments, often rendering the task of combining data from these batches difficult. The ability to co...

The propensity score is the probability of treatment assignment conditional on observed baseline characteristics. The propensity score allows one to design and analyze an observational (nonrandomized) study so that it mi...

Business Research Methods contains new and revised chapters on quantitative methods and visual research, while cutting-edge material on inclusivity and bias in research, feminist perspectives, and decolonial and indigeno...

Collinearity refers to the non independence of predictor variables, usually in a regression‐type analysis. It is a common feature of any descriptive ecological data set and can be a problem for parameter estimation bec...

Preface 1. Background in linear algebra 2. Discretization of partial differential equations 3. Sparse matrices 4. Basic iterative methods 5. Projection methods 6. Krylov subspace methods Part I 7. Krylov subspace methods...

The purposes of this article are to position mixed methods research ( mixed research is a synonym) as the natural complement to traditional qualitative and quantitative research, to present pragmatism as offering an attr...

Prediction of species’ distributions is central to diverse applications in ecology, evolution and conservation science. There is increasing electronic access to vast sets of occurrence records in museums and herbaria, ...

Given the increased use of qualitative and mixed methods, and the continued use of quantitative methods, Creswell's third edition of Research Design: Qualitative, Quantitative, and Mixed Methods Approaches is most timely...

Context. The creation of a 3D map of the bulge using RR Lyrae (RRL) is one of the main goals of the VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea Survey (VVV) and VVV(X) surveys. The overwhelming number of sources undergoing analysi...

Abstract An increasing number of researchers have researched fixture layout optimization for thin-walled part assembly during the past decades. However, few papers systematically review these researches. By analyzing exi...

Software refactoring is a crucial practice in modern software development methodologies, such as Agile and DevOps, as it enables teams to iteratively improve and evolve their codebases while minimizing the risk of introd...

We present results from a data challenge posed to the radial velocity (RV) community: Namely, to quantify the Bayesian "evidence"for n = {0, 1, 2, 3} planets in a set of synthetically generated RV data sets containing a ...

This Campbell systematic review examines the effects of input subsidies on agricultural productivity, beneficiary incomes and welfare, consumer welfare and wider economic growth. The review summarizes evidence from 15 ex...

"Various approaches to software analysis (e.g. test input generation, software model checking) require engineers to (manually) identify a subset of a module’s methods in order to drive the analysis. Given a module to b...

Introduction: The normal physiological course of monthly menstruation is an important component of female health prevention and promotion in the childbearing age. Acupuncture, moxibustion and auriculotherapy are promisin...

ABSTRACT Background Determining right ventricular (RV) volume typically requires three‐dimensional imaging due to its complex shape. The ellipsoid model offers a two‐dimensional alternative, employing area‐ or line...

Abstract Background Brain tumor therapeutic responses can be quantified from magnetic resonance images (MRI) using 1‐ (1D) and 2‐dimensional (2D) linear and volumetric methods, but few studies in dogs compare these t...

Abstract Objective To evaluate the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors regarding complementary and alternative medicine methods of patients who were admitted to gynecology outpatient clinics. Methods In the present s...

The study aims to identify effective and innovative methods of developing communicative competence in students studying Ukrainian and English for professional purposes. The research methodology included experimental trai...

Abstract Background Leishmaniasis is a vector-borne disease caused by a protozoan parasite of the genus Leishmania. The infection is transmitted by the bite of infected female sandflies of the genus Phlebotomus in the Ol...
