In Scott (2002) and Congdon (2006), a new method is advanced to compute posterior probabilities of models under consideration. It is based solely on MCMC outputs restricted to single models, i.e., it is bypassing reversible jump and other model exploration techniques. While it is indeed possible to approximate posterior probabilities based solely on MCMC outputs from single models, as demonstra...

It is well-established that population health is influenced by a multitude of factors, many of which lie outside the scope of the health sector. In the public health literature it is often assumed that intersectoral engagement with nonhealth sectors will be instrumental in addressing these social determinants of health. Due to the expected desirable outcomes in population health, several countr...

Prevalent face recognition difficulties in Alzheimer's disease (AD) have typically been attributed to the underlying episodic and semantic memory impairment. The aim of the current study was to determine if AD patients are also impaired at the perceptual level for faces, more specifically at extracting a visual representation of an individual face. To address this question, we investigated the ...

Mona El-Sheikh and her colleagues have assembled an impressive series of studies for this monograph. To date, researchers interested in the consequences of marital conflict on children have focused primarily on the main effects of psychological variables. Although these studies have been invaluable in helping us to better understand risk and resiliency factors associated with children’s exposur...

Introduction. Accreditation has a long antecedence in western countries educational systems and its history of implementation is more than a century in a country such as United States of America. In European countries, also different activities have been implied throughout the accreditation and its implementation has become an essential. Now, in our country the experts also think of the accredi...
