Compared to the loadings of factor 1, a higher value of factor 2 is also associated with a higher degree of feeling German and a weaker degree of connection to the home country.
In a study on ethnic minorities' achievement in the UK higher education system, (Leslie 2005) attributes the weaker degree results of ethnic minority students to their lower prior-qualifications and the choice of subjects associated with a low probability of degree achievement.
Our interpretation of the results relies on the ecotypes representing a weaker degree of phenotypic and evolutionary divergence than the species pair discussed below.
On the other hand, similar to our in vivo data, swelling-activated taurine release in synaptosomes mimicked the in vivo release in that it was completely insensitive to H2O2 and sensitive to isoosmotic reductions in [NaCl]e (albeit to a much weaker degree than the in vivo response).
Malkin [ 29] stated that methyl esters in the solid state behave in a weaker degree like the acids, crystallizing as dimer molecules with the polar groups together.
We found that breast cancer tissues tended to have weaker degree or less portion of TFPI-2-positive staining than benign breast tumor tissues.
As for the production site of MMP-9 in breast tumors, our results suggest that carcinoma cells are the main source of MMP-9 given that adjacent stromal cell consistently exhibited a much weaker degree of expression.
In addition, genetic data revealed a weaker degree of phylogeographic structuring in domestic goats compared to other livestock species [ 9, 10], which probably results from high gene flow at the intercontinental level, suggesting that goats have been extensively transported [ 2, 11].
Body weight and body mass index demonstrated low and weak degrees of association (r ≤ 0.48, p < 0.05) with plantar pressure data.
Our models distinguish activation from inhibition, dependent from independent regulation as well as strong, medium and weak degrees of effect strength.
