Linear models were used to estimate the effects of price, calorie level (or healthfulness for bread), package size, and convenience on the propensity to purchase items.
False recognition corrected for baseline propensity to accept items was likewise higher in sleep deprived than in non-deprived subjects [Pr = 0.53±0.04 vs. 0.48±0.05, for the "2nd night wake" and "2nd night sleep" group, respectively; t (35) = 1.68, P = 0.05].
To exclude that increased false memory generation after sleep deprivation merely resulted from enhanced baseline propensity to accept items, additional analyses were performed with the discrimination index Pr and the response bias index Br according to the two-high threshold model of recognition memory as dependent variables ([25]; see Materials and Methods, for details).
The item characteristic β j, called "item difficulty" in the classical Rasch example, in this context represents the item propensity to obtain, by the respondents, systematically high or low scores when measuring the latent trait of interest.
This map indicates both the distribution of participants' SSEA propensity scores, and item difficulty levels.
To simulate the missing values, we assume that each patient has a non-response propensity to each item represented by the latent variable ξ.
However, during the retrograde, when people are especially careless and mistake-prone, there is a higher propensity to lose important items such as money, clothes, rings or other valuables.
TKA participants had substantially higher rates of use of PBS analgesic and anti-inflammatory items than propensity score-matched non-TKA participants in the year prior to participating in the 45 and Up Study (table 3).
We evaluated circumcised and uncircumcised men's sexual behavior using an 18-item risk propensity score and acquisition of incident infections of gonorrhea, chlamydia, and trichomoniasis.
On the other hand, marginal propensity to consume on food items is more for the low income people.
