This paper describes the comparison of the anova and the KruskalWallis test by means of the power when violating the assumption about normally distributed populations. The permutation method is used as a simulation method to determine the power of the test. It appears that in the case of asymmetric populations the non-parametric Kruskal-Wallis test performs better than the parametric equivalent...

We give a short new proof of a version of the Kruskal-Katona theorem due to Lovász. Our method can be extended to a stability result, describing the approximate structure of configurations that are close to being extremal, which answers a question of Mubayi. This in turn leads to another combinatorial proof of a stability theorem for intersecting families, which was originally obtained by Fried...

The energy content of electrostatic perturbations about homogeneous equilibria is discussed. The calculation leading to the well-known dielectric (or as it is sometimes called, the wave) energy is revisited and interpreted in light of Vlasov theory. It is argued that this quantity is deficient because resonant particles are not correctly handled. A linear integral transform is presented that so...

AIM The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of polishing systems on the microleakage of a nanofill, a nanohybrid, and a microhybrid composite in Class V cavities. METHODS AND MATERIALS Preparations were made at the cemento-enamel junction (CEJ) of 36 extracted human premolars. The teeth were randomly divided into three groups and restored with new resin composites according to...

Background: Determination of the number of abrasive particles embedded in the zirconia surface after variable parameters of treatment. METHODS One hundred thirty cylindrical disks made from zirconia were divided into 7 groups (n = 10): one control and six test groups treated by air abrasion using Al₂O₃ or SiC with grain sizes: 60, 110, 250 μm with a working pressure of 0.2 or 0.35 MPa. The SE...

Introduction: Healthy lifestyle behaviors are accepted as non-pharmacological approaches in the management of diseases. During pandemic, individuals started to use internet get information and protect their health. Methods: The identified healthy terms were searched Google Trends (GT) for last five years countries. Analysis: We Kruskal-Wallis, Dunn's test Mann Whitney U test. Results: While the...

This study aims to examine the motivation of young tourists attend gastronomic festivals in rural areas Republic Serbia. In addition, it seeks find out whether their differs depending on knowledge and interest gastronomy. The research was conducted a sample 125 respondents. collected data analyzed through Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS 20), using descriptive statistics, K-means c...
