Development is a multi-dimensional process (Bhattacharya and Mahalanobis 1967; Dreze and Sen 1999) which cannot be fully estimated by a single indicator.
While immigrant integration is commonly seen as a complex and multi-dimensional process, the development of non-normative conceptions remains challenging (Ager & Strang, 2008; Garcés-Mascareñas & Penninx, 2015).
The study adopted a new method of multi-dimensional process analysis that integrates both content and sequential analyses, whereby the dimension of interaction and cognition are analyzed simultaneously.
Land abandonment in Central and Eastern Europe since the 1950s has resulted from a complex multi-dimensional process with environmental, ecological, economic, and social consequences (Kuemmerle et al. 2008; Keenleyside and Tucker 2010).
As John Elkington suggests, this is a multi-dimensional process that, however, has historically focused almost exclusively on the environmental aspect through, for instance, a design that is able to reduce the so-called "ecological footprint" of a building (Wackernagel and Rees 1996), and the economic aspect.
However, use of surveys, particularly for the system representative perspective, likely also reflects the difficulty in capturing this complex, dynamic and multi-dimensional process through other data sources.
Rather, their purpose is to measure the evolution over time of a multi-dimensional process, to enable response to specific unmet needs.
Other measures of acculturation that assess acculturation as a multi-dimensional process may be more appropriate to developing a clearer understanding of the impact of acculturation on perinatal mental health status.
From this perspective, SRL is conceptualized as a multi-dimensional process involving a set of thoughts, feelings, and actions that are intentionally and proactively used by learners to attain personal goals (Zimmerman 2000).
Here we demonstrate that the approach may be directly extended to multi-dimensional processes, and two analogous computationally-efficient methods for non-stationary processes are developed.
Having a solution of these multi-dimensional processes, x i (t), we can define the frequencies of different species, x i (t)/ N t), where N t) is the total population size.
