To test for carryover effects, we controlled for starting density in the postexposure phase (by incorporating survival to metamorphosis as a covariate in the statistical model) when examining postexposure survival.
Linear regression analysis showed that, after controlling for reasons for starting smoking, age at initiation was significantly earlier among Swedish women (β -0.72, p = 0.02) than among French women, and significantly later among women from the Czech Republic (β 1.79, p < 0.0001) (Table 6).
It uses an electronically controlled clutch for starting off, providing better fuel economy than a torque converter would.
In our study, we controlled for the starting point bias by randomizing the starting point amounts because of the elicitation mechanism used.
We investigated weight gain both in an independent samples t test on amount of weight gained and on the basis of a linear model examining total weight with control for starting weight.
Amplification of mRNA encoding 18S was performed to control for the starting amount of cDNA.
It is also interesting to notice that the marginal effects of media exposure are remarkably stable once we start controlling for ideological and partisan preferences.
Using Pscmc3ip to control for differences in starting RNA concentration, therefore, would most accurately represent the data.
This was done so as to both verify the efficacy of the QPCR as well as to control for differences in starting RNA concentrations by normalizing the expression values against this gene.
