The derivation of the benefit of completion described therein is based on two identical models modeling the benefit variable of interest (for instance 'employment after training') as a function of a number of predictors, such as sex, age group, location, field of education, qualification level, study status, socio economic status, employment status before training, and prior education.
The higher syntactic rigidity of mutants was visible qualitatively and verified quantitatively, and it interacted with the various types of syntactic completion described above (interaction between mutant/wildtype × perfect/imperfect types: F 4,184) = 5.96, p < 0.001).
The Chicago Tribune's Pulitzer Prize-winning architecture critic Blair Kamin spoke glowingly of the pavilion upon its August 4, 2009, completion, describing it as "a virtuoso display of structure, space and light" with an "arresting combination of naturalistic forms and alien shapes, plus a dazzling video installation".

The words name the donors, give the date of completion and describe the altarpiece as having been begun by Hubert van Eyck, and finished by his brother, Jan, who is "second in art" – as in second-best – to Hubert.
The negative impact of increasing age on completion has been described before (Clarke et al. 1994), and reasons advanced for this phenomenon have included the higher demands of family circumstances, as well as financial considerations and employment requirements (Ozga and Sukhnandan 1997).
The trial was conducted in Chilenje at the University Teaching Hospital (UTH), Lusaka, Zambia, from October 2005 to July 2009, registered as ISRCTN37460449 (www.controlled-trials.com/mrct), with 77% completion rates as described [ 13].
Figure 1 shows the progress of participants through each arm of the trial with respect to the completion of questionnaires described in this report.
