that constitute alcohol dependence (Department of Health and Human Services‚ 1993; Johnston et al.‚ 1992). Estimates of alcohol use alone are not informative in determining the magnitude and characteristics of that subgroup of alcohol users who are experiencing serious alcohol-related problems that require treatment or in determining the critical relationship between alcohol use and dependence. Therefore‚ in order to diagnosis it correctly; a thorough detailed correlation must be assessed. 2.

solving the momentum and thermal energy equations using a finite volume method and the QUICK scheme on a non-uniform Cartesian grid. The dependence of the average Nusselt number on the Reynolds number (5 6 Re 6 40)‚ power-law index (0.6 6 n 6 2) and Prandtl number (1 6 Pr 6 1000) has been studied in detail. The numerical results are used to develop simple correlations as functions of the pertinent dimensionless variables. In addition to the average Nusselt number‚ the effects of Re‚ Pr and n on the

Spearman’s Rank Correlation is a nonparametric measure of statistical dependence between two variables. It assesses how well the relationship between two variables can be described using a monotonic function. If there are no repeated data values‚ a perfect Spearman correlation of +1 or −1 occurs when each of the variables is a perfect monotone

Gentrification often leads to a decline in social capital and civil engagement in targeted communities. Can gentrification instead improve the social capital and the civic engagement in a given community? Gentrification lowers the social capital and civil engagement in disinvested and established communities. The decline is a consequence that results from breaking up those established communities; members of the established communities leave as their properties are purchased and the new occupants

We found that split brain patients have a lower correlation between these exams compared to those of an intact brain. If we were to replicate this exam we will receive roughly the same numbers‚ but if done so more patients to the study group will give a better understanding and better results. Difference
