The first phase of activities involved expert review of the rubric and rating the importance of attributes covered in order to ensure that the rubric appropriately measures our targeted construct within the context of extant literature, and as a way of establishing construct validity of the rubric.
With respect to the extant neobatrachians in the context of recent phylogenetic hypotheses, the cylindrical sacral diapophyses of Uberabatrachus contrast with the dilated diapophyses occurring in australobatrachian hyloids and microhyloid ranoids, whereas the procoelous presacral column is unlike the diplasiocoelous condition of most other ranoids.
We used ddBS to measure the stability of relationships among extant taxa within the context of evidence from the complete matrix, including fossils.
Because we wanted to interpret our findings in the context of extant genetic diversity, we investigated several modern strains as well.
This is particularly interesting in the context of extant literature in which tobacco smoking is often correlated with lower blood pressure levels but confounded by low body mass among many smokers (11); in the present analysis, we can separate out the 2 risk factors to identify how blood pressure is related to smoking when taking into account the distribution of BMI.
PIE employs a randomization procedure that appropriately considers the global degrees (in a general PPI network) of the extant nodes in a context-specific test network, prior to assigning physical cohesiveness to the test network.
Through their discovery and description, Brygomophyseter, Zygophyseter, Acrophyseter, and Livyatan have fleshed out the wider evolutionary context for the extant sperm whale.
In a phylogenetic context, however, all extant species are descended from a most recent common ancestor (MRCA) to whom they are all equally related (Fig. 1a).
These findings are considered in the context of other extant studies of schizotypal traits and the role of anhedonia in schizotypy.
The minimal amount of time for faculty preparation, little guidance from nursing leaders and the extant literature, and a societal context of patriarchy created unique challenges for faculty.
