By assuming an average stMLH of 1.10 for non-inbred wolves, taken from the mean of the six individuals with f = 0, we found that the slope (b observed = −0.594±0.155) was significantly more shallow than the predicted slope (b predicted = −1.10) between stMLH and inbreeding coefficients (Figure. 2A; t = 3.26, d.f. = 83, p<0.01).

Sample sizes were increased to take account of clustering by venue assuming an average of 10 recruits per site, an intracluster correlation coefficient (ICC) of 0.05 (based on upper range of ICCs for chronic disease occurrence and uptake of interventions in nursing homes and general practices) giving a design effect of 1.45 [ 11].

I was recently informed by the director of data research at U.S. News, the person at the magazine who has a lot to say about how the rankings are computed, that absent students' SAT scores, the magazine will calculate the college's ranking by assuming an arbitrary average SAT score of one standard deviation (roughly 200 points) below the average score of our peer group.

Finally, it should be noted that fewer sporozoites were injected by mosquitoes than by needle [1500, assuming an average of 75 sporozoites per mosquito (Medica and Sinnis, 2005) versus 4000 sporozoites by needle], thus accounting for the lower infections observed in the mosquito-bitten mice.
