Despite offering many benefits (low costs, easy to perform, little equipment required), anthropometric techniques can be problematic due to their vulnerability to measurement errors and lack of reliability.
Hence, frameworks for measuring vulnerability should complement quantitative measurements with insights and perceptions of vulnerability based on stakeholder-led qualitative assessments (Adger 2006).
Its advantages include low-cost, reduced vulnerability to counter measurement, high operational flexibility and wide observation scene [7, 8].
Given that they have a liver vulnerability to overfeeding, measurement of energy needs should be (come) the gold standard.
In future work, the main directions are as follows: (i) to critically evaluate any proposed security solution, including vulnerability analysis and measurements and emulations, and (ii) security protocols must be resilient and robust, possibly even against unknown attacks.
Agricultural land is the main measurement of vulnerability situations of the rural households in this study.
Both strengths and weaknesses of contemporary DRR planning are revealed using SVI as a measurement for vulnerability.
They discuss vulnerability, error definition and measurement, and methods to improve the process and outcomes of pharmacotherapy in the ICU.
PROs are often thought to have limited capacity for detecting change given their breadth of measurement and vulnerability to external influences [ 1, 80, 81].
Although affective state may influence the measurement of vulnerabilities, substantial trait (i.e., stable) variance has been demonstrated for many of these constructs, which suggests that these constructs are not just concomitants of distress but likely represent vulnerability factors for later psychopathology (e.g., Bagby et al. 2001; Hankin 2008b).
