Impact of Misdiagnosis in Case-Control Studies of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Diagnostics, 2023 Misdiagnosis of myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) can occur when different case definitions are used by clinicians (relative misdiagnosis) or when failing the genuine diagnosis of another disease (misdiagnosis in a strict sense).

Effect Size Guidelines, Sample Size Calculations, and Statistical Power in Gerontology
Innovation in aging, 2019 Background and Objectives Researchers typically use Cohen’s guidelines of Pearson’s r = .10, .30, and .50, and Cohen’s d = 0.20, 0.50, and 0.80 to interpret observed effect sizes as small, medium, or large, respectively.

Reliability of animal counts and implications for the interpretation of trends
Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Population time series analysis is an integral part of conservation biology in the current context of global changes. To quantify changes in population size, wildlife counts only provide estimates because of various sources of error. When unaccounted for,

Power-law behavior and condensation phenomena in disordered urn models [PDF]
, 2008 We investigate equilibrium statistical properties of urn models with disorder. Two urn models are proposed; one belongs to the Ehrenfest class, and the other corresponds to the Monkey class.

Testing for normality in regression models: mistakes abound (but may not matter)
Royal Society Open ScienceThis study examines the misuse of normality tests in linear regression within ecology and biology, focusing on common misconceptions. A bibliometric review found that over 70% of ecology papers and 90% of biology papers incorrectly applied normality ...

Powerful Statistical Inference for Nested Data Using Sufficient Summary Statistics
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2018 Hierarchically-organized data arise naturally in many psychology and neuroscience studies. As the standard assumption of independent and identically distributed samples does not hold for such data, two important problems are to accurately estimate group ...
