Methodological considerations for combining wastewater-based epidemiology with survey research
Population surveys are the most used technique to make estimations on drug use, but suffer from report biases. Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) collects wastewater samples and analyses them for the presence of drugs and their metabolites. This novel technique has not yet been compared to the results of more conventional epidemiological techniques, which was the goal of the current study. A w...
متن کاملPlayware Research – Methodological Considerations
Several sub-disciplines of engineering are driven by the researchers’ aim of providing positive change to the society through their engineering. These researchers are challenged by the traditional research method of experimental research with a waterfall model which demands clearly defined project definition and functional requirements, and impose a sequential processes leading to the final sys...
متن کاملMethodological considerations for developmental longitudinal fMRI research
There has been a large spike in longitudinal fMRI studies in recent years, and so it is essential that researchers carefully assess the limitations and challenges afforded by longitudinal designs. In this article, we provide an overview of important considerations for longitudinal fMRI research in developmental samples, including task design, sampling strategies, and group-level analyses. We fi...
متن کاملMethodological considerations from a wastewater treatment case study in Kenya
Emergy methodology questions were raised during a case study where a Sugar factory effluent were treated in a pond system in the Lake Victoria watershed, and evaluated from a performance, cost and resource use perspective. This paper focus on the methodological questions, which were the following: (1) how should the emergy systems diagram be drawn when dealing with a system that is in the recyc...
