Performance of bidimensional location quotients for constructing input–output tables [PDF]
Journal of Economic Structures, 2021 This article seeks to verify the extent to which the formulation of two-dimensional location quotients (2D-LQ) entails a methodological advance in building or generating economic accounts related to sub-territories drawing from basic information.

An Ecosystem Approach to Recreation Location Quotients [PDF]
Forests, 2011 Despite the widespread agreement on the importance of preserving ecological integrity in conservation and outdoor recreation decision-making processes, traditional metrics analyzing the supply of and demand for conservation and recreation resources have focused on geographical and population-centric units of measurement rather than ecological ones. One

The Stability of Location Quotients
Review of Regional Studies, 2022 Although location quotients are widely used to analyze local industry specialization and identify industry clusters in regions of all size, past studies have noted issues related to the accuracy of location quotients in small places. This paper examines the stability of location quotients in response to a marginal (i.e., one-unit) increase in the ...

Dystrophin gene mutation location and the risk of cognitive impairment in Duchenne muscular dystrophy. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 BACKGROUND: A significant component of the variation in cognitive disability that is observed in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is known to be under genetic regulation. In this study we report correlations between standardised measures of intelligence
