A decision-maker was defined as 'an individual who makes decisions about, or influences, health policies or practices.' IDRC program officers engage with grantees in framing research problems, improving research designs, and choosing methodologies.
In one respect, the chosen methodology – or the attempt to keep it secret - doesn't matter a jot, so long as the accuracy can be proved over a significant period of time.
This paper explains the chosen methodology for software design of the Multi-Agent Transport Simulation, MATSim.
The research passed through several combinations and tested them on the Oasis case, prior to extensively testing the chosen methodology.
It is claimed that the efficiency of the chosen methodology relies on the balance between these three attributes.
Nevertheless, the chosen methodology of the current study contributed significantly to the reliability and validity of the results.
The lower number of missions performed by TS ambulances in study period 1 was due to chosen methodology and the time selection.
This means that, whatever their origin, background assumptions co-determine how a scientist chooses methodology, analyses data, and picks out relevant evidence.
The chosen methodology is based on precise measurements of the nucleus track parameters in the course of chemical etching of the olivine crystals.
The chosen methodology is using two complementary methods: interviews of personnel performing safety reviews, and analysis of safety review reports from 2005 to 2009.
