Wilson and Cleary linked familiar biological variables to overall QOL, to demonstrate how clinical interventions might be better designed to improve QOL, through modification of the intervening variables.
This is the familiar omitted-variables bias.
The case r = 2 of the polynomials given by (2.5) corresponds to the familiar (two-variable) Lagrange-Hermite polynomials considered by Dattoli et al. [23].
Although the genetics community was already familiar with variable expressivity in the classic example of 22q11.21 deletions, traditional cytogenetics had taught us to use inheritance of a genetic change as a definitive factor for pathogenicity.
The structure of the simulated wall flames is studied in terms of a classical mass-mixing variable, the fuel air based mixture fraction, and a less familiar heat loss variable, the excess enthalpy variable, introduced to provide a measure of nonadiabatic behavior due to wall cooling.
The self-similarity (planar symmetry in the axial coordinate, for most of the key dependent variables), familiar from particle-free counter-flow, also holds for the two-phase flow under these conditions.
More generally, the delta distribution may be composed with a smooth function g(x) in such a way that the familiar change of variables formula holds, that :\int_{\mathbf{R}} \delta\bigl(g(x)\bigr) f\bigl(g(x)\bigr) |g'(x)|\,dx = \int_{g(\mathbf{R})} \delta u f u \, du provided that g is a continuously differentiable function with g′ nowhere zero.
The optimal properties of information-theoretic terms in assessing variability and correlation between multiple variables are familiar to the machine learning and statistics communities but perhaps not well known in fields of epidemiology and medical statistics.
Decision makers should be given flexibility in expressing their judgments, because they are familiar with the linguistic variables applied to words and sentences in the description of the degree of value.
