In 2 Monte Carlo studies of fixed- and random-effects meta-analysis for correlations, A. P. Field (2001) ostensibly evaluated Hedges-Olkin-Vevea Fisher-z and Schmidt-Hunter Pearson-r estimators and tests in 120 conditions. Some authors have cited those results as evidence not to meta-analyze Fisher-z correlations, especially with heterogeneous correlation parameters. The present attempt to repl...

introduction: critical thinking disposition indicates individual’s inclination to critical thinking, which is one of the domains of personality. individual characteristics are important and influential factors in the growth and development of students’ critical thinking. one of these influential characteristics might be self-esteem, thus this study was to determine the correlation between criti...

We present an exact analysis of the physical properties of bimodal networks specified by the two peak degree distribution fully incorporating the degree-degree correlation between node connections. The structure of the correlated bimodal network is uniquely determined by the Pearson coefficient of the degree correlation, keeping its degree distribution fixed. The percolation threshold and the g...

results awareness of the majority of nurses about the rights of the patients with mental disorder and respect for their rights from their perspective were at a good level. using pearson correlation coefficient test, a statistically significant correlation was found between the level of awareness of and the respect for their rights from the perspective of nurses (p ≤ 0.002). conclusions this stu...

u sing the database of the animal breeding center ofiran and based on the eligible test-day data from 78969 cows in five provinces: tehran (with 44129 cows), ghazvin (6668), zanjan (1767), isfahan (7572), khorasan-e-razavi (14521) and others (4312) the averages of 426850 ± 966840 and 473860 ± 605330 cells/ml of milk somatic cell count (scc) was calculated for individual cows and herds respectiv...

Neurophysiological studies are often designed to examine relationships between measures from different testing conditions, time points, or analysis techniques within the same group of participants. Appropriate statistical techniques that can take into account repeated measures and multivariate predictor variables are integral and essential to successful data analysis and interpretation. This wo...
