When a manufacturing process is subject to random shocks, detecting the changes in the process and adjusting an out-of-target process are two essential functions of process quality control. Traditional SPC techniques emphasize process change detection, but do not provide an explicit process adjustment method. This paper discusses a general sequential adjustment procedure based on Stochastic App...

background: no study has been conducted yet on the process of adjustment of wives with their husbands’ erectile dysfunction in the transitional stages, and there is lack of understanding of this process in iran. objectives: a qualitative, grounded-theory study was designed to examine the process of adjustment of wives with their husbands’ erectile dysfunction in transitional stages. materials a...

Multivariate process adjustment in the presence of fixed adjustment costs is investigated in this paper. A fixed adjustment cost leads to a trade-off between adjusting a process continuously and allowing the process to drift until a bound is violated. The problem of determining the best bounded adjustment policy and the optimal bounded adjustment parameter is addressed. Although the univariate ...

A bivariate extension to Box and Jenkins (1963) “machine tool” problem is presented in this paper. The model balances the fixed cost of making an adjustment, which is independent of the magnitude of the adjustment, with the cost of running the process off-target, which is assumed quadratic. It is assumed that two controllable factors are available to compensate for the deviations from target of...

Rental adjustment equations have been estimated for a quarter century. In the United States, models have used the deviation of the actual vacancy rate from the natural rate as the main explanatory variable, while in the United Kingdom, drivers of the demand for space have dominated the estimation. The recent papers of Hendershott (1996) and Hendershott, Lizieri and Matysiak (HLM 1999) fall into...

A clinical phenomenological study with nine adults with schizophrenia explored the postpsychotic adjustment stage of recovery from a psychotic episode to map a psychological recovery trajectory. Participants (ages 21-37 years) were actively involved in an early psychosis outpatient treatment program. Psychophenomenological analysis of interview data resulted in 458 descriptive expressions refle...

A classic adjustment method, the harmonic adjustment rule, minimizes expected quadratic loss where adjustments are easy and cheap, and the items produced during the adjustment process should be as close to target as possible. This paper generalizes the harmonic adjustment rule by explicitly taking into account measurement and adjustment costs. The generalization is static, in that adjustments a...
