Abstract

"Equally useful as a reference for individuals interested in the analysis of lifetime data and as a text for advanced students, Statistical Models and Methods for Lifetime Data, Second Edition provides broad coverage of the area without concentrating on any single field of application. Extensive illustrations and examples drawn from engineering and the biomedical sciences provide readers with a clear understanding of key concepts."--Jacket.

Abstract

While regression analysis traces the dependence of the distribution of a response variable to see if it bears a particular (linear) relationship to one or more of the predictors, nonparametric regression analysis makes minimal assumptions about the form of relationship between the average response and the predictors. This makes nonparametric regression a more useful technique for analyzing data in which there are several predictors that may combine additively to influence the response. (An example could be something like birth order/gender/and temperament on achievement motivation). Unfortunately, researchers have not had accessible information on nonparametric regression analysisuntil now. Beginning with presentation of nonparametric regression based on dividing the data into bins and averaging the response values in each bin, Fox introduces readers to the techniques of kernel estimation, additive nonparametric regression, and the ways nonparametric regression can be employed to select transformations of the data preceding a linear least-squares fit. The book concludes with ways nonparametric regression can be generalized to logit, probit, and Poisson regression.

Abstract

Financieel beleid is een geheel van technieken om inzicht te krijgen in de financiële gezondheid van een organisatie, om oplossingen voor eventuele problemen te ontwikkelen en financiële beslissingen te nemen. Ook in ziekenhuizen neemt het belang van die technieken toe. Een goede financiële gezondheid en gepaste financiële beslissingen zijn een dagelijkse zorg van directieleden en bestuurders van ziekenhuizen, ziekenhuisartsen, ziekenhuisapothekers en medische, verpleegkundige, administratieve en andere diensthoofden.De auteurs leggen de technieken van financieel beleid voor ziekenhuizen op een heldere manier uit. Ze starten deze volledig geüpdatete editie met een nieuw inleidend hoofdstuk, dat de belangrijkste bronnen van financiering voor ziekenhuizen in België schetst. De analyse van de jaarrekening van ziekenhuizen hebben ze bijgewerkt met de gegevens van de Belfius-MAHA analyse tot en met 2013. Het hoofdstuk over management accounting is uitgebreid met technieken van investeringsanalyses en boordtabellen. Ten slotte zijn de cijfers en de regelgeving, waar relevant, geactualiseerd tot november 2014.https://www.standaardboekhandel.be/p/financieel-beleid-voor-ziekenhuizen-9789462921306

Abstract

This book provides a timely and novel contribution to understanding and enhancing evidence use. It builds on and complements the popular and best-selling "What Works?: Evidence-based policy and practice in public services" (Davies, Nutley and Smith, Policy Press, 2000), by drawing together current knowledge about how research gets used and how this can be encouraged and improved. In particular, the authors explore various multidiscipliary frameworks for understanding the research use agenda; consider how research use and the impact of research can be assessed; summarise the empirical evidence from the education, health care, social care and criminal justice fields about how research is used and how this can be improved and draw out practical issues that need to be addressed if research is to have greater impact on public services. "Using evidence" is important reading for university and government researchers, research funding bodies, public service managers and professionals, and students of public policy and management. It will also prove an invaluable guide for anyone involved in the implementation of evidence-based policy and practice.

Abstract

Reviews sampling methods used in surveys: simple random sampling, systematic sampling, stratification, cluster and multi-stage sampling, sampling with probability proportional to size, two-phase sampling, replicated sampling, panel designs, and non-probability sampling. Kalton discusses issues of practical implementation, including frame problems and non-response, and gives examples of sample designs for a national face-to-face interview survey and for a telephone survey. He also treats the use of weights in survey analysis, the computation of sampling errors with complex sampling designs, and the determination of sample size.
