Community Responses To Food Insecurity During Covid-19: A Case Study In Sheffield, England, Nicole Kennard
Community Responses To Food Insecurity During Covid-19: A Case Study In Sheffield, England, Nicole Kennard
Urban Food Systems Symposium
The COVID-19 pandemic gave rise to a group of newly food insecure people and deepened hardship for those already food insecure. The crisis disrupted national food supplies and created challenges to accessing and utilizing the food that was available. As financial struggle deepened for people, and some became unable to shop for food or cook due to isolation requirements and illness, many turned to community organizations to obtain food. In Sheffield, England, small community food organizations soon became the leaders of the city’s emergency food response. One such organization is the Foodhall Project, a community food organization which had previously …

Developing Prediction Equations For Fat Free Lean In The Presence Of An Unknown Amount Of Proportional Measurement Error, Zachary J. Hass, Bruce A. Craig, Allan Schinckel
Developing Prediction Equations For Fat Free Lean In The Presence Of An Unknown Amount Of Proportional Measurement Error, Zachary J. Hass, Bruce A. Craig, Allan Schinckel
Conference on Applied Statistics in Agriculture
Published prediction equations for fat-free lean mass are widely used by producers for carcass evaluation. These regression equations are commonly derived under the assumption that the predictors are measured without error. In practice, however, it is known that some predictors, such as backfat and loin muscle depth, are measured imperfectly with variance that is proportional to the mean. Failure to account for these measurement errors will cause bias in the estimated equation. In this paper, we describe an empirical Bayes approach, using technical replicates, to accurately estimate the regression relationship in the presence of proportional measurement error. We demonstrate, via …
