Gillian Beer, in her influential 1983 study "Darwin's Plots," identified basic ideas about variation, purpose, and development that Darwin learned from his philosophical predecessors and shared with the novelists of his day.
We utilized a non-probability sampling strategy (maximum variation purpose sampling) to obtain a wide range of perspectives representing the typical diversity of end-users' groups experiencing the new ICU facility.
For maximum variation purposes, three different age groups were established among women : ≤ 19 years; 20 35 years and >35 years according to risk for pregnancies related issues [ 27, 28].
The combat variation's purpose is to enable a soldier to carry a heavier load over greater distances without fatigue.
Nine of the included studies reported a costing element, 19, 28– 36, 362 63, 63 with variations in purpose and method of data collection.
The approach we utilized overcomes the limitations noted by separating the task of modelling the relationship between risk factors and health services use from the task of summarizing, for communication purposes, variation in health services use by risk factor combination.
While these pathology collections were relatively simple, contemporary biobanks exhibit considerable variation in scope, purpose, type of material collected, and participant population.
For this purpose, variation of T50 flow time, torque plastic viscosity, apparent yield stress and thixotropy were investigated as a function of time in a standstill condition.
This study aimed to evaluate the imprecision and bias data generated for 20 routine chemistry analytes against both the biological variation fitness for purpose (FFP) and Sigma metrics (SM) criteria.
For this purpose, variation of the concentration, which is expressed as ln C 0/C (where C 0 refers to the initial concentration of methylene blue solution and C depicts the concentration of methylene blue after UV irradiation), was plotted versus time of UV exposure (30, 60, 90, and 120 min).
We explored the utility of using interspecies physiological variation for this purpose by relating species' physiological phenotypes to landscape patterns of ecological and genetic exchange.
