For the issue addressed here, criterion validity is the relevant term, meaning the extent to which the measurement correlates with an external criterion under study.
A good carefully chosen measure is not likely to show a correlation of greater than 0.5 with the criterion under study, and in an applied setting, such as this study's, a correlation of 0.3 with the criterion under study is common [ 17].
The criteria under study are, directly or indirectly, related to the water storage in the lake.
The results of univariate analyses, with which we compared the diagnostic performance of all four criteria under study, indicate that all criteria, when used alone, help to discriminate between lymph nodes with and without metastasis, but that the discriminative ability was lowest for degree of homogeneity of signal intensity on contrast-enhanced T1-weighted images.
Have at least 30 days of medication per quarter in the 12 months post-index meeting the criteria described under study group assignment.
Criterion validity defines the correlation of a measurement and an external criterion of the phenomenon under study, while the sub-aspect concurrent validity defines the time-chronological correlation (International Epidemiological Association 1995).
The values assigned to each criterion describing the hazard under study for the present case Lisbon and seismic hazard can be seen in Table 2.
Computational results over a wide range indicated a critical flame temperature of 1130 K at extinction, which appears to be a valid unified extinction criterion for the flame under study.
Given each venue subcategory that passed our filtering criteria in the region under study (Section 3), we measure the popularity of all venues of that subcategory within each gender group.
Exclusion criteria for the group under study included family history of pelvic organ prolapse, lack of informed consent, pregnancy, gynecologic malignancy, and hereditary (Marfan or Ehlers-Danlos syndromes) or acquired connective tissue disorders (rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, scleroderma, polymyositis, and dermatomyositis).
In the real data example, we were unable to fit a regression tree with splits beyond the root node subject to the specified pruning criterion for one of the genes under study.
