He poked fun at economic orthodoxy by showing that public goods, like lighthouses, were provided by private methods rather than through the government as had been assumed earlier.
We assume, as was assumed in Holt v. Indiana Mfg.
As it was assumed that during the early years women also worked underground for at least some time, the sample was additionally stratified by gender.
As mentioned above, it was assumed that the earlier ASEK values, based on hedonic evaluation, did not reflect the whole social cost ([65], p. 119 120), and therefore, based on Danish findings [54, 55] the WTP estimates were adjusted upwards by 42%%.
As noted earlier, it was assumed that progestogen-only preparations in post-menopausal women were accompanied by oestrogens (with each hormone dispensed separately, rather than as a combined preparation), so that prevalence of use of oestrogen alone is represented by the difference (oestrogen−progestogen).
There were no data to indicate what proportion of the increase in attendances were "additional" as opposed to "earlier", so 50%% was assumed with 90%% considered in a sensitivity analysis.
There were no data to indicate what proportion of the increase in referrals were "additional" as opposed to "earlier", so 50%% was assumed with 90%% considered in a sensitivity analysis.
A scenario analysis in which 90%% of the increase in GP attendances/referrals was assumed to be additional as opposed to earlier resulted in only a small increase in the ICER associated with the campaign.
Statistical significance was assumed as p<0.05.
As mentioned earlier, slag is assumed to behave like weak cement.
As it explained earlier, it is assumed that the incoming workload (traffic and process) follows a Gaussian distribution.
