INTRODUCTION: Patient satisfaction becomes more important in our modern health care system. The assessment of satisfaction is difficult because it is a multifactorial item for which no golden standard exists. One of the potential methods of measuring satisfaction is by using the well-known visual analogue scale (VAS). In this study, we validated VAS for satisfaction. PATIENT AND METHODS: In th...

OBJECTIVE To compare different statistical methods for assessing the relative validity of a self-administered, 150-item, semi-quantitative food-frequency questionnaire (FFQ) with 4-day weighed diet records (WR). DESIGN Subjects completed the Scottish Collaborative Group FFQ and carried out a 4-day WR. Relative agreement between the FFQ and WR for energy-adjusted nutrient intakes was assessed ...

conclusions some results of the correlation coefficients are not the same with visualization. the reason may be due to the small number of data. materials and methods in the foundation-application study, we constructed two-way gene networks using nonparametric methods, such as spearman’s rank correlation coefficient and blomqvist’s measure, and compared them with pearson’s correlation coefficie...

Swinkels-Meewisse et al. (2003) examined some of the psychometric properties of both the Dutch Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK-DV) and the Fear-Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire (FABQ) in acute low back pain patients.

The Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient is being used to evaluate the similarity of the high-performance liquid chromatographic fingerprints of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in China. It is confirmed that a large range of peak areas produced the wrong results. A new algorithm concerning weighted Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient is proposed in this article. The resu...
