Most investigations concerning the validity of self-reported anthropometrics focus on weight, height, and body mass index. This study extends those investigations by exploring the impact of self-reporting bias on the disease risk indicators of waist circumference and body fat percentage. Female college freshmen (n=128) self-reported weight and height, then underwent measurements for weight, hei...

Water level monitoring is important for understanding the global hydrological cycle. Remotely-sensed indices that capture localized instantaneous responses have been extensively explored for water level reconstruction during the past two decades. However, the potential usage of the Palmer’s Drought Severity Index (PDSI) and El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) indices for water level reconstruct...

We address the question of measurement health achievement and inequality in context variables exhibiting an inverted-U relation with well-being. The chosen approach is to measure separately increasing range variable, from a lower survival bound optimum value m, decreasing m upper b. Because range, equally distributed equivalent associated distribution progressive transfers, paper introduces app...
