Bayesian Inference for Sensitivity Analysis of Computer Simulators, With an Application to Radiative Transfer Models
Marian Farah,Athanasios Kottas +1 more
TL;DR: An approach for integrating global sensitivity analysis tools and extending semi-Bayesian approaches to a fully Bayesian methodology is developed and used to carry out sensitivity analysis of the Leaf–Canopy Model, a radiative transfer model that simulates the interaction of sunlight with vegetation.

Analysis of World Championship Swimmers Using a Performance Progression Model.
Inmaculada Yustres,Jesús Santos del Cerro,Fernando González-Mohíno,Michael Peyrebrune,José María González-Ravé +4 more
TL;DR: A performance progression model of elite competitors in the World Swimming Championships from 2006 to 2017 was created to identify the influence of annual ratios of progression, ages of peak performance and junior status on success in senior competitions.
An electrophysiological investigation of Tamil dative-subject constructions
Abstract: The present dissertation concerns the online processing of transitive constructions involving dative nominals in Tamil. We exploited the ERP technique in order to investigate the processing of Tamil dative nouns in constructions involving a class of verbs that serve to express states of affairs rather than active events, which are variously called experiencer-subject or dative-subject constructions. These so-called dative-stative verbs require that their subject-like argument be in the dative case. Whereas active verbs agree with their nominative subjects, stative verbs simply show a third-person, singular, neuter agreement, henceforth called default-agreement, regardless of the person, number, gender features of their dative-subjects. This dissertation thus attempts to investigate specifically the question of whether and in what manner dative nominals that are subjects are processed differently from other nominals, such as nominative subjects and dative nominals that are not subjects. It further strives to examine whether dative-stative verbs are processed differently compared to verbs that require a nominative subject. The results of the three auditory ERP Experiments reported here suggest processing differences at the sentence-initial position between dativesubjects and nominative subjects as well as dative indirect objects. They further suggest that dative-stative verbs are processed differently from non-stative verbs, possibly due to default-agreement. In addition, the context inwhich a stimulus sentence occurs, aswell as the experimental task requirements appear to have a significant impact on the ERP effects obtained. In sum, these results appear to suggest that neurocognitive models of language comprehension need to take both linguistic and extra-linguistic factors into account in order for their predictions to have a broader scope.

The moderator–mediator variable distinction in social psychological research: Conceptual, strategic, and statistical considerations.
Reuben M. Baron,David A. Kenny +1 more
TL;DR: This article seeks to make theorists and researchers aware of the importance of not using the terms moderator and mediator interchangeably by carefully elaborating the many ways in which moderators and mediators differ, and delineates the conceptual and strategic implications of making use of such distinctions with regard to a wide range of phenomena.

The CES-D Scale: A Self-Report Depression Scale for Research in the General Population
TL;DR: The CES-D scale as discussed by the authors is a short self-report scale designed to measure depressive symptomatology in the general population, which has been used in household interview surveys and in psychiatric settings.
