Misleading Interaction and Curvilinear Terms
This article examines the relationships between interaction (product) terms and curvilinear (quadratic) terms in regression models in which the independent variables are correlated. The author uses 2 substantive examples to demonstrate the following outcomes: (a) If the appropriate quadratic terms are not added to the estimated model, then the observed interaction may indicate a synergistic (of...
متن کاملInteraction terms in nonlinear models.
OBJECTIVES To explain the use of interaction terms in nonlinear models. STUDY DESIGN We discuss the motivation for including interaction terms in multivariate analyses. We then explain how the straightforward interpretation of interaction terms in linear models changes in nonlinear models, using graphs and equations. We extend the basic results from logit and probit to difference-in-differenc...
متن کاملFifty psychological and psychiatric terms to avoid: a list of inaccurate, misleading, misused, ambiguous, and logically confused words and phrases
The goal of this article is to promote clear thinking and clear writing among students and teachers of psychological science by curbing terminological misinformation and confusion. To this end, we present a provisional list of 50 commonly used terms in psychology, psychiatry, and allied fields that should be avoided, or at most used sparingly and with explicit caveats. We provide corrective inf...
متن کاملMisleading Reference
We just became aware that the article [1] published in Entropy 2009 contains a false reference. From the list of references in [1] one gets the impression that the manuscript [2] has been accepted for publication in the journal Biophyical Chemestry. We have contacted the editors of that journal and they could tell us that [2] is a rejected manuscript, which is also the reason why the manuscript...
متن کاملCurvelets and Curvilinear Integrals
Let C(t) : I 7→ R be a simple closed unit-speed C curve in R with normal ~n(t). The curve C generates a distribution Γ which acts on vector fields ~v(x1, x2) : R 2 7→ R by line integration according to Γ(~v) = ∫ ~v(C(t)) · ~n(t)dt. We consider the problem of efficiently approximating such functionals. Suppose we have a vector basis or frame Φ = (~ φμ); then an m-term approximation to Γ can be f...
