(1) When power-transformed scores are used to eliminate skewness, there is evidence for one distribution and it is not possible to distinguish single gene from multifactorial (polygenic or cultural) inheritance.
(2) the summer increase in preterm births was characterized by an increase of skewness which means an extension of the lower part of the distribution.
(3) New observations include: (1) In 15 nm cross sections that show single 14.5 nm levels: (a) The flared X structure characteristic of rigor is replaced by a straight-X figure in which the crossbridge density is aligned along the myosin-actin plane, rather than skewed across it as in rigor.
(4) MEPPs with skewed amplitude histograms and bursting behaviour were evident at both sub-stages.
(5) His stencils, skewed perspective and wit are recognizable enough to be mocked in the New Yorker .
(6) In this paper, the three rotational axes are shown to be skewed and off-set from each other, therefore, a three-cylindric open chain with skewed joint axes is proposed to measure the six displacements between the two reference frames.
(7) He is helped by constituency boundaries that skew the pitch in Labour’s favour, but even then the leap required looks improbable.
(8) The velocity distributions in main and side tubes were skewed towards the inner walls close to the flow divider.
(9) The normalized quantal size varied randomly, with a mean value of 0.51% (SD = 0.20) and was relatively independent of n. In contrast, the distribution of p, which ranged from 0.17 to 0.74 (mean = 0.40, SD = 0.155), was skewed to the right; this parameter tended to decrease as a function of increasing n. The normalized unitary inhibitory conductance (g'IPSP) underlying an IPSP is equal to the product of npg'q, where g'q is the normalized quantal conductance.
(10) It is demonstrated that the avoidance strategies which constitute defensive work lead to a progression of counterstrategies and foster skewed priorities.
(11) Greater efforts to tackle occupational segregation would also help ensure longer term change to our skewed labour market.
(12) However, if the number of categories on the response scale is increased, the degree of separation between the mean responses obtained for a positively as opposed to a negatively skewed concentration distribution diminishes.
(13) Marbling scores were not distributed normally with both positive skewness and kurtosis (P less than .001).
(14) These age- and parity-related changes in litter composition are consistent with the Trivers-Willard hypothesis that physiologically-stressed females would skew offspring sex ratios to favour daughters.
(15) The Chimera grid was used to avoid a grid with highly skewed cells.
(16) Furthermore, they explain the low pH optima and skewed pH profiles previously reported for enzymatic activity toward high molecular weight substrates.
(17) Groups receiving no medication for gastric acidity had positively skewed pH distributions (nonsymmetrical distribution with tail pointing to right and majority of cases in lower range), and groups receiving medications for the reduction of acidity had negatively skewed pH distributions (nonsymmetrical with tail pointing to left and majority of cases in upper range).
(18) That 6% cut swells to 12% if inflation is accounted for and Labour also argues that the government's comparison is skewed because spending rose rapidly – 33% – in the four years to 2010 , in response to the Pitt review of the devastating 2007 floods, which killed 13 people, left 55,000 homeless and cost insurers £3bn.
(19) For low order modes (n less than 3) the F test statistics are approximately F distributed but for higher order models the test statistics are skewed to the left of the F distribution.
(20) These abnormalities include signs of dysfunction of ocular alignment (skew deviation, ocular tilt reaction, and environmental tilt), various types of nystagmus, smooth pursuit and gaze-holding abnormalities (eye deviation, ipsipulsion or lateropulsion, and impaired contralateral pursuit), and saccadic abnormalities (ipsipulsion and torsipulsion).
