A recent study of businesses in Taiwan suggests that this may be because companies with fire insurance actually take more precautions against fires — the reverse of what the theory of moral hazard predicts.
Normalized distribution of the wildfire hazard predicted by: d road-density, e Gravity, and f CDM models.
Models using an empirically derived age dependent hazard predicted that about double the level of control will be needed to achieve the same proportional reduction in C* as compared to constant hazard models (Figure 6).
Furthermore, the association between frequency of escape and relative hazard predicted by our hypothesis, as well as being confirmed in a large (N = 150) cohort (P = 0.001), was also confirmed using an alternative method in two large independent cohorts (P = 0.006, P = 0.0007) using two surrogate markers of the frequency of escape.
Figure 4 displays fitted values from model 2a, superimposed over hazards predicted for CD4 count bins of width 10 cells.
Landslide susceptibility mapping (LSM) is considered to be an effective tool for understanding these natural hazards and predicting potential landslide hazard areas (Feizizadeh and Blaschke, 2013a), thereby mitigating their impacts.
Improved understanding of nonlinear site response during strong shaking and the subsequent recovery process is critical for estimating seismic hazard and predicting strong ground shakings caused by future large earthquakes (Frankel et al., 2002).
Cox proportional hazard models predicting survival up to 1 year were then fitted for each derivation of the Charlson index.
Column 3 presents results of the proportional hazard model, predicting post-partum modern contraceptive use, controlling for factors that may influence contraceptive use behaviors.
b Percentage of hazard area for different hazard zone predicted by CDM and gravity models.
