this study aimed at analyzing the relationship of tranformational leadership and organizational justice with organizational citizenship behaviors of experts of ministry of sport and youth. multifactor leadership questionnaire, organizational justice scale and organizational citizenship scale were used to collect data. 220 out of 280 questionnaires (78.5%) that were distributed among experts of ...

Pearson product-moment correlation coefficients are a wellpracticed quantification of linear dependence seen across many fields. When calculating a sample-based correlation coefficient, the accuracy of the estimation is dependent on the quality and quantity of the sample. Like all statistical models, these correlation coefficients can suffer from overfitting, which results in the representation...

Problem Statement: There have been many cases in real life where two independent sources have ranked n objects, with the interest focused on agreement in the top rankings. Spearman's rho and Kendall's tau coefficients assigned equal weights to all rankings. As a result, the literature proposed several weighted correlation coefficients with emphasis on the top rankings, including the top-down, w...

How to manage conflict is still an open issue in Dempster-Shafer evidence theory. The correlation coefficient can be used to measure the similarity of evidence in Dempster-Shafer evidence theory. However, existing correlation coefficients of belief functions have some shortcomings. In this paper, a new correlation coefficient is proposed with many desirable properties. One of its applications i...

This study aims to assess the psychometric properties of the Brazilian version of the Vulnerable Elders Survey-13 (VES-13). Interviews were carried out with individuals aged 60 years and over receiving care at an ambulatory cancer centre. Test-retest reliability was assessed using the Spearman correlation coefficient, intraclass correlation coefficients and Cohen’s kappa coefficient. Construct ...

A 'differential measure' is used to cast our calculus for the group SU (3) into a form similar to Schwinger's boson operator calculus for the group SU (2). It is then applied to compute (i) the inner product between the basis states and (ii) an algebraic formula for the Clebsch-Gordan coefficients. These were obtained earlier by us using Gaussian integration techniques.

We describe a method for removing noise from digital images, based on a statistical model of the coefficients of an overcomplete multiscale oriented basis. Neighborhoods of coefficients at adjacent positions and scales are modeled as the product of two independent random variables: a Gaussian vector and a hidden positive scalar multiplier. The latter modulates the local variance of the coeffici...

The Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient is being used to evaluate the similarity of the high-performance liquid chromatographic fingerprints of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in China. It is confirmed that a large range of peak areas produced the wrong results. A new algorithm concerning weighted Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient is proposed in this article. The resu...

The zero distribution of orthogonal polynomials pn,N , n = 0, 1, . . . generated by recurrence coefficients an,N and bn,N depending on a parameter N has been recently considered by Kuijlaars and Van Assche under the assumption that an,N and bn,N behave like a(n/N) and b(n/N), respectively, where a(·) and b(·) are continuous functions. Here, we extend this result by allowing a(·) and b(·) to be ...
