Parameter Estimation Based on Cumulative Kullback–Leibler Divergence
In this paper, we propose some estimators for the parameters of a statistical model based on Kullback–Leibler divergence of the survival function in continuous setting and apply it to type I censored data.

Tracking of health-related physical fitness in adolescent girls: a 3-year follow-up study
Background Evidence has shown that higher levels of physical fitness (PF) in youth have beneficial effects on adult health-related outcomes. However, the tracking of separate PF components during adolescence has been less studied.

Developing Students’ Intuition on the Impact of Correlated Outcomes
While correlated data methods (like random effect models and generalized estimating equations) are commonly applied in practice, students may struggle with understanding the reasons that standard regression techniques fail if applied to correlated ...

Generalized estimating equations to estimate the ordered stereotype logit model for panel data
By modeling the effects of predictor variables as a multiplicative function of regression parameters being invariant over categories, and category‐specific scalar effects, the ordered stereotype logit model is a flexible regression model for ordinal ...
