The phrase "actual determinants" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when discussing the real or true factors that influence a particular outcome or situation.
Example: "The actual determinants of economic growth are often more complex than they appear at first glance."
Alternatives: "true factors" or "real influences".
A major obstacle in this line of research is the challenge to establish causality, or in other words, the ability to empirically determine whether these life course factors are actual determinants of fertility or whether certain life course factors and fertility behavior are simultaneously affected by the presence of other common determinants (endogeneity or reverse causality).
The actual determinants of both thought and action are unconscious.
However, not enough is known about the actual determinants of ethnic self-identification, in particular how it changes over time.
Variables not included in our model, which correlate with both the Gini index and the effect estimate may be the actual determinants of the outcomes.
Metabolic factors were also highlighted as important correlates (if not actual determinants) of variation in evolutionary rates of hummingbirds, whose metabolism may be great enough to alter substitution rates at the level of the nuclear genome [6].
Community-level variables are often proxies for a variety of factors, and thus "mixed bag" variables as described above, which means it is difficult to disentangle what the actual determinants are and how they act.
While there are excellent algorithms for predicting MHC peptide binding strength for particular class I alleles, it is unknown how accurate these algorithms are in predicting the actual determinant recognized in an individual coexpressing other class I alleles.
Within this framework 1/LPD would be just a "proxy" of a site's flexibility, which would be the actual determinant of its evolutionary rate.
Despite the widespread use of CRA and FRA in a chimeric form (CF-chimera) as a clinical marker of Chagas disease [ 25, 28, 29], little is known about the actual antigenic determinants in CRA/FRA that are involved in and responsible for antibody recognition [ 21, 22, 28, 30].
Further, multiple candidate genes with non-synonymous variants and/or differential expression patterns are observed within QTL intervals (21– 23), which makes it difficult to pin-point the actual genetic determinant.
Existing literature on wife-beating in sub-Saharan African countries, including Nigeria, has focused extensively on its actual prevalence and determinants (Diop-Sidibe et al. 2006; Ilika et al. 2002; Koenig et al. 2003; Odujinrin 1993; Okemgbo et al. 2002) and less on the underlying attitudes towards wife-beating.
