We also reported results after stratification so that we (and readers) could assess associations (even with a fair amount of statistical imprecision) without an over-reliance on model-based assumptions.
55 Although the FFQ has been shown to be sufficiently convenient and inexpensive to use in large-scale, population-based studies, 56 responses rely on self-report and, therefore, are subject to imprecision (under-reporting and over-reporting) and biases related to social desirability.
By John McPhee Golf might do well to get rid of the lush and plush, and go back to the lyrical imprecision of playing over natural country, as the first golfers did in Scotland on the Old Course at St . Andrews
Resonating as this does with the origins of the game itself, golf might do well to get rid of the lush and plush, and go back to the lyrical imprecision of playing over natural country, as the first golfers did on the Old Course, teeing up on wee pyramids of sand and whacking the ball past the sheep toward holes that grew larger by the end of the day.
This limited resolution creates two main obstacles to the use of MAI methods: the possibility that small recombination intervals might escape detection, and the imprecision with which the cross-over points of recombination can be detected.
The chief defence lawyer denies this.The imprecision of the charges, over the past year, has fuelled the assumption that the suspects probably did no great wrong.
Intra-assay imprecision was under 10% over the entire measuring range, and the functional assay sensitivity (interassay coefficient of variation [CV] <20%) was 0.12 nmol/l.
By modeling combined instrument imprecision and spatial variability over a range of error types, we are able to estimate a range of effects of these sources of measurement error, which are likely a mixture of both classical and Berkson error types.
This metric captures aspects of both imprecision (measurement error) and bias (systematic over- and/or under-estimation).
