Patterns of intra-cluster correlation coefficients in school-based cluster randomised controlled trials of interventions for improving social-emotional functioning outcomes in pupi... by Kitty Parker, Michael Nunns, ZhiMin Xiao, Tamsin Ford, Paul Stallard, Willem Kuyken, Nick Axford, Obioha C. Ukoumunne

“…Abstract Background The cluster randomised trial (CRT) design is increasingly used to evaluate the impact of school-based interventions for improving social-emotional functioning outcomes in pupils. Good knowledge is required on plausible values of the intra-cluster correlation coefficient (ICC) of the outcome to calculate the required sample size in such studies. …”

Machine Learning and Statistical Analyses of Sensor Data Reveal Variability Between Repeated Trials in Parkinson’s Disease Mobility Assessments by Rana M. Khalil, Lisa M. Shulman, Ann L. Gruber-Baldini, Sunita Shakya, Jeffrey M. Hausdorff, Rainer von Coelln, Michael P. Cummings

“…Although the total duration remains relatively consistent between trials (intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) = 0.62 to 0.95), greater variability is seen in subtask duration and sensor-derived measures, reflected in machine learning performance and statistical differences. …”

An Analysis of Cotton Production Technology on the Harran Plain by Abdulbaki Bılgıc, Seyda Ipekcıoglu, Tamer Isgın

“…In this research, it was aimed to determine effects of three production factors; labor, capital, and land, on the current level of cotton output produced by a sample of local cotton farmers operating on the Harran Plain in Turkey and whether this relation may be used to assess the returns-to-scale parameter, also known as the function coefficient in the production economics literature. …”

Desai, Eugénie Paul‐Limoges, Marta Galvagno, Albin Hammerle, Georg Jocher, Borja Ruiz Reverter, David Holl, Jiquan Chen, Luca Vitale, M. Altaf Arain, Nuno Carvalhais

“…Both models simulated hourly GPP and were parameterized for (a) each site–year, (b) each site with an additional constraint on IAV (CostIAV), (c) each site, (d) each plant–functional type, and (e) globally. This was followed by forward runs using calibrated parameters, and model evaluations using Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE) as a model‐fitness measure at different temporal scales across 198 eddy‐covariance sites representing diverse climate–vegetation types. …”
