Even so, rigorously tested models explaining why perfectionistic concerns result in procrastination are scarce.
We then rigorously tested model-data consistency by incrementally starving the models of these measured parameters and using Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo simulation to retrieve the withheld parameters.
Chemical variability induced by relatively small changes in waste package heat output suggests that designing a monitoring program that will rigorously test model predictions will likely require high resolution, three-dimensional simulations of the "as-built" monitoring tunnels.
Throughout their experiences, students should frequently reflect on how their thinking has changed (Bransford et al. 2000; Vosniadou 2008) To help implement a constructivist approach, we used a rigorously tested instructional model (the BSCS 5E instructional model) that helps students understand content and use higher-level reasoning (Wilson et al. 2010). .
It is the hope that this paper will not only offer a valuable example of how to incorporate a conceptual framework into a complex study design, but also as a platform for rigorously testing models such as EPIS so that they can more effectively inform and advance future implementation efforts.
The results show that spatial variability in certain chemical parameters below waste emplacement tunnels provides robust targets for monitoring, but will require sampling on the scale of 10 s of centimeters in some locations, in order to rigorously test models.
The idea is to "graduate" people out of extreme poverty through a rigorously tested sequencing of events.
The SIT-Q was developed to fill a need for a rigorously tested, comprehensive measure of habitual adult sedentary behavior.
Congruence was more rigorously tested using a Bayesian model selection framework (Bayes factors) [16] and lastly, a modified version of the likelihood ratio test proposed by Huelsenbeck and Bull [18] (Leigh, Susko and Roger, unpublished) was employed.
A randomly selected validation set was not employed to more rigorously test the model's validity.
To rigorously test this model further, we transduced activated T cells with a FLAG-MycWT-IRES-GFP retroviral construct (encoding a FLAG-tagged wild-type Myc cDNA and an IRES-controlled GFP cDNA) and then cultured the cells in the presence or absence of IL-2.
