Zeger and Liang (1992) allege that regression parameter estimates from transition models tend to be smaller in absolute value than regression parameter estimates from marginal models. This statement is true in typical longitudinal data situations for the relation between the true parameters of the marginal and transition model. However, under the assumption of a transition model the Generalized...

To explore human deviations from Bayes’ rule in numerically explicit problems, prior and likelihood probabilities or frequencies are manipulated and their effects on posterior probabilities or surprisals are measured. Results show that people use both priors and likelihoods in Bayesian directions, but the effect of likelihood information is stronger than that of prior information. Use of freque...

Methods for group comparisons using predicted probabilities and marginal effects on probabilities are developed for regression models for binary outcomes. Unlike approaches based on the comparison of regression coefficients across groups, the methods we propose are unaffected by the identification of the coefficients and are expressed in the natural metric of the outcome probability. While we d...

We consider the entanglement marginal problem, which consists of deciding whether a number reduced density matrices are compatible with an overall separable quantum state. To tackle this we propose hierarchies semidefinite programming relaxations set state marginals admitting fully extension. connect completeness each hierarchy to resolution analog classical problem and thus identify relevant e...

MATTHEWS wrote: 'The compilation of a pharmacopoeia by the physicians and the apothecaries of a hospital proved a great convenience to the many resident and consulting physicians treating patients there. Prescriptions in regular use for the treatment of a particular set of symptoms constituted the bulk of the formulae. Time could be saved by merely writing the name of the mixture or pills, etc....

Background and aim: Marginal adaptation affects the long-term success of full-coverage restorations. This study aimed to assess the effect of porcelain sintering and zirconia core thickness on the marginal adaptation of all-ceramic restorations. Materials and methods: In this in-vitro experimental study, a standard brass die, 7 mm in length and 5 mm in diameter, was fabricated using a milling ...
