The major concerns with endocrine disruptors in the environment are based mostly on effects that have been observed on the developing embryo and fetus.
In contrast, DE estimates are based on observed effects that are corrected for sampling fluctuation to get 'true' effect sizes.
The assumption that the meager influence of trust in the physician is based on ceiling effects that are known from patient satisfaction research [ 58] was not confirmed; the Trust-in-Physician questionnaire has good distribution properties (data not presented in the results section).
A sensitivity analysis on the impact of the four excluded trials,w1-w4 based on effect sizes, indicated that their inclusion would have a neutral to inflating effect on the results, without changing the direction of the conclusions.
This new approach is based on the effects that this force causes in the compressor operation.
There are today well established NMR spectroscopy experiments designed for this particular purpose based on the effects that binding of small molecules have on chemical shifts or relaxation [ 20, 21].
The cost-benefit analysis will be based on the effect that the intervention has on labor market participation, and the effect that the intervention has on mental health/disability.
Recently, Hanus and Call (2008) showed that chimpanzees were able to infer the location of a reward based on the effect that its weight had on a balance beam.
Thus, based on the effect that same-site vibration has on the SI response to flutter, we were led to the prediction that vibration, if presented simultaneously at the same sites as two-point flutter stimuli (i.e., as a complex stimulus comprised of 25 Hz and 200 Hz components), would improve a subject's ability to discriminate between two points.
The spallation process is based on the effect, that hard rocks with a high quartz content disintegrate into small disc-like fragments, if the rock surface is rapidly exposed to high thermal loads.
