Confidence intervals with fixed proportional accuracy
(Elsevier, 1986-1987)
The problem of setting a confidence interval with fixed proportional accuracy for the mean of a normal distribution is considered. A sequential procedure is proposed; and asymptotic expansions for its average coverage ...
Graph Comprehension: Difficulties, Individual Differences, and Instruction.
(2014)
Graphs are pervasive in our daily lives (e.g., newspapers, textbooks, scientific journals, classrooms), and there is an implicit assumption that, although they are not explicitly taught graphical literacy, people are capable ...
Analysis of inquiry materials to explain complexity of chemical reasoning in physical chemistry students’ argumentation
(Springer, Science and Technology Education LibraryWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2017-12)
One aim of inquiry activities in science education is to promote students’ participation in the practices used to build scientific knowledge by providing opportunities to engage in scientific discourse. However, many factors ...
Muscarine-sensitive voltage-dependent potassium current in cultured murine spinal cord neurons
(Elsevier, 1983-01-31)
Muscarine produced membrane depolarization and decreased membrane conductance of mouse spinal cord neurons in dissociated cell culture. When the neurons were voltage clamped, muscarine evoked inward currents which increased ...
Singh's theorem in the lattice case
(Elsevier, 1988-12)
The asymptotic behavior of the parametric bootstrap estimator of the sampling distribution of a maximum likelihood estimator is investigated in a simple lattice case, integer valued random variables whose distributions ...
Variable selection in monotone single‐index models via the adaptive LASSO
(SpringerWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2013-09-30)
We consider the problem of variable selection for monotone single‐index models. A single‐index model assumes that the expectation of the outcome is an unknown function of a linear combination of covariates. Assuming ...
How and when does complex reasoning occur? Empirically driven development of a learning progression focused on complex reasoning about biodiversity
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2009-08)
In order to compete in a global economy, students are going to need resources and curricula focusing on critical thinking and reasoning in science. Despite awareness for the need for complex reasoning, American students ...
Receptor Binding Techniques
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc.Elsevier/North‐Holland Biomedical Press, 1997-09)
This overview first discusses issues relating to the selection of radioligand for receptor binding assays, including the isotopic label and considerations pertaining to the pharmacological and chemical profile of the ligand. ...
Intracellular partitioning of androgen receptor immunoreactivity in the brain of the male syrian hamster: Effects of castration and steroid replacement
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1993-07)
The effect of castration and steroid replacement on the intracellular partitioning of the androgen receptor in the brain of the male Syrian hamster was determined using immunocytochemistry. Androgen receptors were visualized ...
Comparison of methods for estimating the effect of salvage therapy in prostate cancer when treatment is given by indication
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2014-01-30)
