The ACRES was characterized by considerable criterion-related validity and reasonable test-retest reproducibility, assessed on a street-recruited sample.
In conclusion, the overall results show (a) considerable criterion-related validity of the ACRES, (b) ratings of advertisement-recruited participants mirroring those of street-recruited participants and (c) different commuting route environment profiles of inner urban and suburban areas.
We have previously assessed the reliability and the validity of the ACRES for bicyclists, using a street-recruited sample of bicycle commuters, and found that it was characterized by considerable criterion-related validity and reasonable test-retest reproducibility [ 9].
The overall results show: considerable criterion-related validity of the ACRES; ratings of advertisement-recruited participants mirroring those of street-recruited participants; and a higher degree of bikeability in the suburban commuting route environments than in the inner urban ones.
Despite their many differences, the accounts of Hempel (focusing now on just the DN rather than the IS model), Salmon, Kitcher and others discussed above largely share a common overall conception of what the project of constructing a theory of explanation should involve and (to a considerable extent) what criteria such a theory should satisfy if it is to be successful.
The prevalence of hyperglycaemia in critically ill patients is considerable; using stringent criteria it approaches 100%.
However, despite the strict inclusion criteria, considerable heterogeneity was found among the 14 studies included in this review.
A limited number of studies were found meaning there is still considerable uncertainty around criteria for classification of type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
On an individual level, considerable differences in criteria weights and rank order occur as a result of the weight elicitation method used, and the ability of different techniques to discriminate in criteria importance.
Both statements describing the IOM and Canadian diagnostic criteria for PFAS reached consensus agreement despite considerable differences between the criteria, including that, unlike the IOM criteria, the Canadian criteria require CNS dysfunction to be formally established.
Ray said of a species: After long and considerable investigation, no surer criterion for determining species has occurred to me than the distinguishing features that perpetuate themselves in propagation from seed.
