The repeated investigation of excessive behaviors by raising participants' awareness could lead to true changes in behavior; thus indicating that the consistent decreasing trend in problem severity is a reliable result of the present study and not a consequence of measurement bias.
Softening dynamic force displacement relationships were observed for all the modes, and the natural frequencies showed clear and consistent decreasing trends with increasing response amplitude.
The consistent decreasing trends in satisfaction scores of control group patients in each follow-up indicates that the patients did not achieve their desired expectation and they were still facing problems in coping the disease.
Thus significant deviations from the binomial distribution would suggest a consistent decreasing or increasing trend in c-z values.
This contrasted with the earlier trials of the OB-avoidance learning block where the total duration was highly variable yet with a consistent monotonically decreasing trend at each randomly cued target location.
The result has been a consistent decrease in the percentage of female coaches.
Further analysis of the relationship between miRNA evolutionary age and 48 features used for prediction of miRNA precursors [ 27] indicated that while the majority of these showed little systematic variation with miRNA age, several displayed a consistent increasing or decreasing trend with increasing miRNA age.
The south north gradient in peak timing observed in our study is consistent with a decreasing trend in the reproduction number in the same direction and is statistically associated with maximum temperature and specific humidity.
The report noted that the decrease in the theft rate was consistent with a generally decreasing trend over the last 16 years.
The distributions of the percent changes in serum concentrations in the one-year interval indicate concentrations were fairly consistent with a slight decreasing trend for all congeners except BDE-153.
