To avoid co-linearity among the independent variables, co-linearity diagnostic analysis was done with the following criteria: tolerance >0.4 or variance inflation <2.5 and condition number <10.
The medical definition of "dependency" or "addiction", according to the American Psychiatric Association (DSM-IV) and the World Health Organization (ICD-10), include meeting any three of the following criteria: Tolerance.
To test for the effect of the error bound, the same simulations were performed with an error bound of 10−8 for the flow and coupling iteration (see Section 2.6); stopping criterion tolerance was reduced by a factor of 1.000.
For SVM we used a linear kernel, termination criterion (tolerance) was set to 0.001, epsilon for the insensitive-loss function was 0.1 and the regularization term (cost) was set to 1. Also, we left bagging and boosting with the default parameters.
Lastly, the resulting final reconstruction error estimates enable to state if the reconstruction results fulfills a priori defined criteria including tolerance information (e.g., dimensions with their corresponding tolerances).
Patients fulfilling the criteria for tolerance of spontaneous ventilation underwent an SBT following the local protocols.
It is often assumed in talking about addiction to a substance that the decisive criteria are tolerance (a need for more and more of the stuff in order to get the desired high) and withdrawal (physiological suffering associated with declining blood and tissue concentrations of the substance in question).
The short version of the scale comprises seven items, each reflecting one of the following criteria: salience, tolerance, mood modification, withdrawal, relapse, conflict, and problems.
Currently, animal models clearly are able to address the diagnostic criteria of tolerance and withdrawal but are less obviously capable of capturing complex emotional constructs, such as desire and preoccupation.
These criteria are tolerance, withdrawal symptoms, loss of control of drinking, desire to quit, preoccupation with drinking, curtailing of other activities because of drinking, and persistence of drinking in the face of negative consequences.
The most prevalent inhalant dependence criteria were tolerance to inhalants, loss of control over inhalant use, and continued inhalant use despite knowledge of having a persistent or recurrent physical or psychological problem likely to have been caused or exacerbated by inhalant use.
