When Random Group Effects Are Cross-Correlated: An Application To Elderly Migration Flow Models, Karen S. Conway, Andrew J. Houtenville Oct 1998

When Random Group Effects Are Cross-Correlated: An Application To Elderly Migration Flow Models, Karen S. Conway, Andrew J. Houtenville

Center for Policy Research

Incorporating random group effects has proven important to making correct statistical inferences about factors that only vary across groups. We note that it is possible to have more than one random effect in models using cross-sectional data and that these random effects could be correlated, unlike in the typical panel data situation. Extending the standard multiple random effects model in this way is greatly simplified by using the two-step estimator we develop. Our application to an elderly migration flow model provides an intuitive example of cross-correlated random group effects and demonstrates the ease of our estimator, as well as highlighting …


The Effect Of Store Name, Brand Name And Price Discounts On Consumers' Evaluations And Purchase Intentions, Dhruv Grewal, R. Krishnan, Julie Baker, Norm A. Borin Oct 1998

The Effect Of Store Name, Brand Name And Price Discounts On Consumers' Evaluations And Purchase Intentions, Dhruv Grewal, R. Krishnan, Julie Baker, Norm A. Borin

Marketing

This paper develops and tests a conceptual model of the effects of store name, brand names and price discounts on consumers' evaluations (store image, brand quality perceptions, internal reference prices, and value perceptions) and purchase intentions. The moderating effects of consumer knowledge and prior ownership on the proposed relationships in the model are also explored. A store's perceived image is influenced by the store name and the quality of merchandise It carries. Results also indicate that internal reference price is influenced by price discounts, brand name, and a brand's perceived quality. The influence of price discounts on a brand's perceived …

Echoes From An Irradiated Disc In Gro J1655-40, R. I. Hynes, K. O'Brien, Keith Horne, W. Chen, C. A. Haswell Oct 1998

Echoes From An Irradiated Disc In Gro J1655-40, R. I. Hynes, K. O'Brien, Keith Horne, W. Chen, C. A. Haswell

Faculty Publications

We demonstrate correlated rapid variability between the optical/UV and X-ray emission for the first time in a soft X-ray transient, GRO J1655-40: Hubble Space Telescope (HST) light curves show similar features to those seen by the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE), but with mean delay of up to 10-20 s. We interpret the correlations as the result of reprocessing of X-rays into optical and UV emission, with a delay owing to finite light travel time, and thus perform echo mapping of the system. The time-delay distribution has a mean of 14.6 ± 1.4 s and dispersion (i.e. the standard deviation …


Detection Of T(11;14) Using Interphase Molecular Cytogenetics In Mantle Cell Lymphoma And Atypical Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, Hervé Avet-Loiseau, Richard Garand, Fanny Gaillard, Axelle Daviet, Marie Paule Mellerin, Nelly Robillard, Isabelle Bouyge, Santosh Arcot, Mark Batzer, Pascaline Talmant, Jean Luc Harousseau, Noël Milpied, Régis Bataille Oct 1998

The chromosomal translocation t(11;14)(q13;q32) fuses the IGH and CCND1 genes and leads to cyclin D1 overexpression. This genetic abnormality is the hallmark of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), but is also found in some cases of atypical chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), characterized by a poor outcome. For an unequivocal assessment of this specific chromosomal rearrangement on interphase cells, we developed a set of probes for fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Northern blotting was performed for analysis of the cyclin D1 expression in 18 patients. Thirty-eight patients, with either a typical MCL leukemic phase (17 patients) or atypical CLL with an MCL-type …

The Form And Substance Of Ethics: Prenatal Diagnosis In The Baird Report, Rachel Ariss Oct 1998

The Form And Substance Of Ethics: Prenatal Diagnosis In The Baird Report, Rachel Ariss

Dalhousie Law Journal

This article analyses the employment of textual tactics in the Final Report of the Royal Commission on New Reproductive Technologies. The author argues that the Commission uses these tactics to persuade several different audiences that its stance is correct, and simultaneously to manage dissent over new reproductive technologies. Analysis of textual tactics opens the ethical position of the Commission to substantive questioning. The authorfocuses on the Commission's discussion of prenatal diagnosis for genetic anomalies and concludes that the Commission fails to engage with ethical arguments put forward by persons with disabilities and their advocates. The conclusion also encourages the development …

Analysis Of Vehicle Classification Data, Including Monthly And Seasonal Adt Factors, Hourly Distribution Factors, And Lane Distribution Factors, David L. Allen, Nikiforos Stamatiadis, R. Clark Graves Oct 1998

Analysis Of Vehicle Classification Data, Including Monthly And Seasonal Adt Factors, Hourly Distribution Factors, And Lane Distribution Factors, David L. Allen, Nikiforos Stamatiadis, R. Clark Graves

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

This report documents the development of monthly and seasonal ADT factors for performing estimating AADT's. lt appears that seasonal factors can estimate AADT as well as monthly factors, and it is recommended that seasonal factors be used.

Hourly distribution factors were also developed in this study. These are to be used in life-cycle costing analyses for calculating queue lengths in estimating user delay costs.

In this study, a comparison was made between automatic vehicle classification counters and manual counts. For the type of equipment used, automobiles were overestimated, pickup trucks were underestimated, and Type 9's were also underestimated.

Treating Prior Terminations Of Parental Rights As Grounds For Present Terminations, Kathleen Haggard Oct 1998

Treating Prior Terminations Of Parental Rights As Grounds For Present Terminations, Kathleen Haggard

Washington Law Review

The federal Adoption and Safe Families Act of 1997 recognized that in certain egregious circumstances, states need not seek to reunify a family before terminating the rights of abusive and neglectful parents. Washington State responded by revising its termination of parental rights statute to treat parents' violent criminal convictions as sole grounds for terminating parental rights. This Comment argues that the Washington statute should be further amended to recognize that a termination of rights to a previous child may serve as grounds for terminating rights to a present child if the State finds the parent's continuing behavior puts the child …
