Estimation of mean vector in presence of non-response

Communications in Statistics - Theory and Methods, 1997
Simultaneous estimation of means of several variables is considered for finite population in presence of non-response. Two types of nonresponses (partial and complete) are considered using the technique of sampling and subsampling with equal probabilities without replacement.

Struggle with ultimate meaning: Nuanced associations with search for meaning, presence of meaning, and mental health

The Journal of Positive Psychology, 2017
AbstractStruggle with ultimate meaning reflects concerns about whether one’s life has a deeper meaning or purpose. We examined whether this construct could be distinguished from presence of meaning in life and search for meaning. In two US samples – a web-based sample (N = 1047) and an undergraduate sample (N = 3978) – confirmatory factor analyses ...

Semiparametric Estimation of Proportional Mean Residual Life Model in Presence of Censoring

Biometrics, 2005
SummaryA mean residual life function is the average remaining life of a surviving subject, as it varies with time. The proportional mean residual life model was proposed byOakes and Dasu(1990,Biometrika77,409–410) in regression analysis to study its association with related covariates in absence of censoring.

Compassionate presence: The meaning of hematopoietic stem cell transplant nursing

European Journal of Oncology Nursing, 2011
Within oncology, working with patients who are suffering or at end-of-life has been recognized repeatedly as stress-inducing, yet there is little agreement on what specifically nurses may experience as a result of their work. Further, research focused on caring work within the context of hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) nursing is almost non ...

Sources of Meaning and the Presence of Meaning in Life for Narcissists

The aim of this project is to explore what people who score high on narcissism find meaningful. In previous studies I have shown that narcissists derive Meaning in Life (MIL) from conspicuous consumption. In this study I will expand the search of areas in which narcissists derive MIL.

Convergence in the presence of zero-ergodic-mean disturbance

IMA Journal of Mathematical Control and Information, 1999
The paper considers the convergence of systems with zero-ergodic-mean disturbance. Let \(A(t)\in L^{n\times n}_\infty\) be bounded and piecewise continuous, and \[ B(t)=\frac 1T\int^{t+T}_t A(\tau)d\tau, \] where the averaging period \(T\) is a free parameter. Two systems are defined, namely, \(\dot x(t)=\gamma A(t)x(t)\) and \(\dot y(t)=\gamma B(t)y(t)

[Presence and meaning of aeromonas in drinkable water]

Igiene e sanita pubblica, 2002
Many species of Aeromonas are thought to be the cause of diarrhoeal syndromes, bactaeremia and eye infections. Recent studies have shown that the presence of aeromonas in drinkable water is not associated with that of feacal indicators. The authors have tested 62 samples of drinkable water from various wells, as well as 14 samples of two mineral waters

Time, Silence, and the Ephemeral Presence of Meaning

“The Walking Man” as a meditation on transience, paradox, and the phenomenology of revelation. Through the mysterious figure of the Walking Man—part traveller, part prophet, part embodiment of time itself—the poem explores how presence and absence, speech and silence, memory and forgetting coexist in the human apprehension of meaning.
