Background: Anemia is a public health challenge in India among children, adolescents and reproductive age women. Still, 58% of under-five children 43% Puducherry are anaemic. To determine the proportion mothers one-to-nine-year aware about iron folic acid (IFA) supplementation, adherent to dosage IFA barriers for adherence IFA. Methods: A community-based explanatory sequential mixed methods stu...

Occupational therapists need to be critical of who teaches, what is taught, how it is taught, how it is applied, and to whom it is taught in the entire education program of prospective occupational therapists. Further, I recommend that occupational therapy educators on campus take the lead in initiating meetings and discussions that facilitate a functional conjoining of occupational therapy pra...

‘Environmental citizenship’ is, like other forms of ‘adjectival citizenship’, a recent invention. The environmental citizen’s life may be rather different from that of the ‘average’ citizen. For example, she will ‘turn off the tap when brushing [her] teeth or washing her face’; ‘walk, ride [her] bike, carpool or use public transport when possible’; ‘shop at second-hand stores and garage sales ....

In this paper, a one-sample point predictor of the random variable X is studied. X is the occurrence of an event in any successive visits $L_i$ and $R_i$ :i=1,2…,n (interval censoring). Our proposed method is based on finding the expected value of the conditional distribution of X given $L_i$ and $R_i$ (i=1,2…,n). To make the desired prediction, our approach is on the basis of approximating the...

We describe a tolerance interval approach for assessing agreement in method comparison data that may be left censored. We model the data using a mixed model and discuss a Bayesian and a frequentist methodology for inference. A simulation study suggests that the Bayesian approach with noninformative priors provides a good alternative to the frequentist one for moderate sample sizes as the latter...

In this paper, we study the Hausdorff dimension of generalized intrinsic level set with respect to given ergodic meausre in a class non-uniformly hyperbolic interval maps finitely many branches.
