In conclusion, sample size requirements and statistical-computational limitations increase the need for a method (such as WISH) which reduces the multiple-testing problem and takes interaction effects into account when analysing HTG data.
In countries with very low levels of educational attainment, the mean level of education may be a poor indicator of job requirements, and the statistical method may be inappropriate (Sparreboom and Nübler 2013).
In both levels of the identification process, different types of the feature vectors together with the trained GMM models (with different number of used mixtures) are used due to different requirements and different statistical properties necessary for gender type classification and emotional style recognition.
A checklist containing standards for design requirements and preferred statistical methods is a useful tool for this purpose.
The screening and inclusion process is summarised in Additional file 1: Appendix 2. A research protocol and database template were drafted a priori, specifying the study rationale and objectives, IPD requirements, and planned statistical analyses (Additional file 1: Appendix 3).
In this paper, we explain our choices for the design requirements and preferred statistical methods for which no evidence is available in the literature or on which the Delphi panel members had substantial discussion.
We explain our choices for the included design requirements and preferred statistical methods for which no evidence is available in the literature or which generated substantial discussion among the members of the Delphi panel.
In this article, we explained our choices for the design requirements and preferred statistical methods for which no evidence is available in the literature or which generated major discussions among the members of the Delphi study during the development of the COSMIN checklist.
A recent review contrasting some of the pros and cons of existent data sharing platforms concluded that such systems have to be viewed according to the source funding demands, information content, privacy regulations, requirements for analytical and statistical processing, interoperability and scalability needs [35].
When the expected frequency criteria were not met due to small cell sample size, adjacent categories were collapsed into smaller categories, where appropriate, in order to fulfill the necessary Pearson chi-square requirements and to gain statistical power.
Based on our study aim and requirements for statistical analyses, between 2007 and 2010, we recruited over 78 patients with anxiety and depression in perimenopausal and postmenopausal, as well as control participants with climacteric syndrome only.
