Determinants of implementing the 15-method in Danish general practice using the consolidated framework for implementation science by Peter Næsborg Schøler, Jens Søndergaard, Sanne Rasmussen, Kristina Hasselbalch Volke, Per Nilsen, Anette Søgaard Nielsen

“…Abstract Background Excessive alcohol consumption is a significant global health issue, often unaddressed in primary care. The 15-method, a three-step opportunistic screening and treatment tool premised on Motivational Interviewing and integrated within the Screening, Brief Intervention and Referral to Treatment framework, offers a structured approach for healthcare professionals to identify and treat alcohol-related problems. …”

Statistical analysis of an in-vehicle image-based data collection method for assessing airport pavement condition by Ianca Feitosa, Bertha Santos, Jorge Gama, Pedro G. Almeida

“…Kruskal-Wallis tests were applied to each method separately. Significant section-based differences were found in 11 of 12 cases for the traditional method and in 2 of 12 cases for the in-vehicle image-based method, indicating greater sensitivity of the on-foot inspection to spatial variation in distress distribution. …”

eDNAjoint: An R package for interpreting paired or semi‐paired environmental DNA and traditional survey data in a Bayesian framework by Abigail G. Keller, Ryan P. Kelly

“…The model can be used to estimate parameters like the probability of a false positive eDNA detection and mean catch rate at a site, and the package allows access to multiple model variations and Bayesian prior customization. Additional functionality can be used for model selection, summarising posteriors and comparing the relative sensitivities of the two survey methods. …”

Spatial Analysis of Hypsometric Characteristics of the Wadi (Tagharan) Basin by Tahseen Abdulrahim Azeez

“…Most of the secondary basins (21) have concave-convex Hypsometric curves, which are the equilibrium or maturation stage in the geomorphic cycle, The values of the hypsometric integration ranged between (0.36-0.47). It turns out that the values of the Hypsometric integration do not form a specific spatial model, And the spatial relationship between the values of the hypsometric integration and the quantitative characteristics of the secondary basins is negative and not strong. …”
