Haaf, Christine Grace. "Vehicle Demand Forecasting with Discrete Choice Models: 2 Logit 2 Quit." Research Showcase @ CMU, 2014. http://repository.cmu.edu/dissertations/491.

Full text
Abstract:
Discrete choice models (DCMs) are used to forecast demand in a variety of engineering, marketing, and policy contexts, and understanding the uncertainty associated with model forecasts is crucial to inform decision-making. This thesis evaluates the suitability of DCMs for forecasting automotive demand. The entire scope of this investigation is too broad to be covered here, but I explore several elements with a focus on three themes: defining how to measure forecast accuracy, comparing model specifications and forecasting methods in terms of prediction accuracy, and comparing the implications of model specifications and forecasting methods on vehicle design. Specifically I address several questions regarding the accuracy and uncertainty of market share predictions resulting from choice of utility function and structural specification, estimation method, and data structure assumptions. I1 compare more than 9,000 models based on those used in peer-reviewed literature and academic and government studies. Firstly, I find that including more model covariates generally improves predictive accuracy, but that the form those covariates take in the utility function is less important. Secondly, better model fit correlates well with better predictive accuracy; however, the models I construct— representative of those in extant literature— exhibit substantial prediction error stemming largely from limited model fit due to unobserved attributes. Lastly, accuracy of predictions in existing markets is neither a necessary nor sufficient condition for use in design. Much of the econometrics literature on vehicle market modeling has presumed that biased coefficients make for bad models. For purely predictive purposes, the drawbacks of potentially mitigating bias using generalized method of moments estimation coupled with instrumental variables outweigh the expected benefits in the experiments conducted in this dissertation. The risk of specifying invalid instruments is high, and my results suggest that the instruments frequently used in the automotive demand literature are likely invalid. Furthermore, biased coefficients are not necessarily bad for maximizing the predictive power of the model. Bias can even aid predictions by implicitly capturing persistent unobserved effects in some circumstances. Including alternative specific constants (ASCs) in DCM utility functions improves model fit but not necessarily forecast accuracy. For frequentist estimated models all tested methods of forecasting ASCs improved share predictions of the whole midsize sedan market over excluding ASC in predictions, but only one method results in improved long term new vehicle, or entrant, forecasts. As seen in a synthetic data study, assuming an incorrect relationship between observed attributes and the ASC for forecasting risks making worse forecasts than would be made by a model that excludes ASCs entirely. Treating the ASCs as model parameters with full distributions of uncertainty via Bayesian estimation is more robust to selection of ASC forecasting method and less reliant on persistent market structures, however it comes at increased computational cost. Additionally, the best long term forecasts are made by the frequentist model that treats ASCs as calibration constants fit to the model post estimation of other parameters.

Full text
Abstract:
People of Black African heritage in the UK have increased susceptibility of being diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) compared to the general White population. Nutrition is central in halting T2DM and the progression of complications such as cardiovascular diseases. However, little is known about the factors influencing the diet of women of Black African heritage with T2DM. In addition, clinical and public health conceptions of the problem tend to be individualistic in orientation. This study is an exploratory and in-depth inquiry into food choice and the implications of dietary change for women of Black African heritage who self-manage T2DM by diet alone. Eight participants were recruited using purposive sampling. Recruitment sites included Black and Minority Ethnic charities in Norfolk and Suffolk. Data was derived from direct observation using the ‘Accompanied Shopping Task’, combined with a ‘Think Aloud Technique’ called a ‘Product Choice Reasoning Task’. In-depth interviews were undertaken and transcribed verbatim. Framework Analysis was used to provide a procedure to manage data analysis, which was informed by the PEN-3 public health cultural model which moves beyond overly individualistic conceptions of the issues. The study showed that six participants prioritised the disease and used what I have called a ‘Disease Focused Approach’ to self-manage T2DM. Two used a ‘Family Focused Approach’, as family played a crucial role in T2DM self-management. All participants undertook T2DM self-care by following a culturally appropriate diet. Their least preferred options for managing T2DM were medical therapy and physical activity. The study showed that although food choice is influenced by many factors, culture was particularly important. Moreover, participants showed greater knowledge than had been anticipated about the role of nutrition to prevent progression of T2DM. Results are explored and presented for three main domains of experience for the participants: first, food shopping and decision-making; second, diet choice and lifestyle; and third, the interface with health services. For each of these the culture was found to be of paramount importance. The implications of the findings are presented in relation to the importance of culturally appropriate advice; culturally sensitive service provision; and the significance of household composition in managing the illness, especially for people with T2DM who have young children living at home.

Abstract:
The purpose of this research was to examine food security for people with prediabetes participating in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), focusing on their food choice decisions and coping strategies over a 30-day benefit cycle that potentially increases the risk of Type 2 diabetes. A cross-sectional, quantitative design based on food choice process model constructs was used. SNAP participants (n = 36) with prediabetes, aged 21â??70 years, were recruited as outpatients from Bronx Lebanon Hospital and completed self-reported questionnaires on demographics and health, food security, and food frequency. Descriptive statistics, Pearson chi square tests, and regression analysis were performed using SPSS. Also, independent t test, and Levene's test were used for ad hoc analysis to assess variation of food choice decisions over 30 days. Of the sample, 5% had low and 95% very low food secure status. Food security status did not predict coping strategies (p = .724); however, food security status and type of coping strategy had a moderate relationship (p < 0.01; r =.60). Food choices of 11 food categories changed over a 30-day cycle with greatest variation for Week 1, compared to Weeks 2â??4 (p < .005). Use of coping strategies to minimize hunger was limited. Very low food security associated with certain coping strategies disrupted eating patterns. Disrupted eating patterns affect food variation over time, increasing the intake of non-nutrient-dense foods and the risk of obesity and Type 2 diabetes. The implications for positive social change include the potential to change SNAP's benefit allotments, make nutrition education mandatory, and create a nutrition package, thereby lowering food insecurity and the risk of Type 2 diabetes.

Full text
Abstract:
This work explores a novel vision model based coding approach to encode medical images at a perceptually lossless quality, within the framework of the JPEG 2000 coding engine. Perceptually lossless encoding offers the best of both worlds, delivering images free of visual distortions and at the same time providing significantly greater compression ratio gains over its information lossless counterparts. This is achieved through a visual pruning function, embedded with an advanced model of the human visual system to accurately identify and to efficiently remove visually irrelevant/insignificant information. In addition, it maintains bit-stream compliance with the JPEG 2000 coding framework and subsequently is compliant with the Digital Communications in Medicine standard (DICOM). Equally, the pruning function is applicable to other Discrete Wavelet Transform based image coders, e.g., The Set Partitioning in Hierarchical Trees. Further significant coding gains are ex ploited through an artificial edge segmentation algorithm and a novel arithmetic pruning algorithm. The coding effectiveness and qualitative consistency of the algorithm is evaluated through a double-blind subjective assessment with 31 medical experts, performed using a novel 2-staged forced choice assessment that was devised for medical experts, offering the benefits of greater robustness and accuracy in measuring subjective responses. The assessment showed that no differences of statistical significance were perceivable between the original images and the images encoded by the proposed coder.

Abstract:
Det primära syftet med denna uppsats var att studera den subjektiva uppfattningen av prestationsbaserade löner i korrelation till stress, oro, missnöje, motivation och utvecklingsmöjligheter. Till detta ingick det även att ta reda på varför informanterna valde att ta anställning på en arbetsplats med prestationsbaserad lön och slutligen gjordes en jämförelse mellan de två informantgrupperna, medarbetare och mellanchefer. Då syftet var att studera den subjektiva uppfattningen hos informanterna användes en kvalitativ ansatts där empirin samlades in genom semistrukturerade intervjuer med fyra medarbetare från ett företag och fyra mellanchefer från fyra olika företag.  Det empiriska materialet har analyserats utifrån sociologiska teorier och annan arbetsmarknadsforskning. De sociologiska teorier som användes var, Rational choice, 2-faktorteorin och Expectancy teorin. Arbetsmarknadsforskning som användes för analysen var krav-kontroll-stöd-modellen och ledarskapsforskning. Resultatet tyder på att incitamentet initialt för att ta anställning på ett företag med prestationsbaserad lön är möjligheten till att få en större inkomst än det vore möjligt på annan plats. Vidare tyder resultatet på att informanterna upplevde att den prestationsbaserade lönen bidrog till deras motivation och utvecklingsmöjligheter. Resultatet pekade även på att stress som en följd av den prestationsbaserade lönen är närvarande hos samtliga informanter men den uppfattades som större hos mellancheferna då de upplevde att de hade större ansvar än medarbetarna. Mellanchefernas upplevelse av stress förstärktes på grund av den brist på kontroll de hade över personalomsättningen och företagets policy vad det gäller deras arbete. Slutligen indikerade resultat av studien att mellancheferna uppfattade den status som den prestationsbaserade lönen gav dem som ett starkt incitament.

Full text
Abstract:
With technological advances in testing for gene mutations, a new population of BRCA1/2 women is becoming aware of their increased risk for developing breast and/or ovarian cancer. A salient issue these women face is which risk-reducing option to choose. Little is known about the decision making factors underlying the choice of prophylactic mastectomy for women with a BRCA1/2 mutation. To address this issue, 137 unaffected, positive BRCA1/2 gene mutation carriers (42 who opted for prophylactic mastectomy, 95 who did not) served as participants. All women completed an on-line battery that assessed the following theory-based decision making variables: advantages and disadvantages of prophylactic mastectomy (normative decision theory), physician recommendation (shared decision making theory), cancer worry (affect theory), and information-seeking coping style. With the exception of information-seeking style (p = .8715), the decision making variables of advantages and disadvantages of prophylactic mastectomy, physician input, and cancer worry did have a significant relationship with risk-reduction option chosen. Women who rated the advantages higher than the disadvantages of prophylactic mastectomy (r = .31, p ≤ .001), whose physician had recommended prophylactic mastectomy exclusively (X² = 11.85; p < .001), and who reported higher cancer worry scores a month after receiving BRCA1/2 positive results (r = .28, p ≤ .001) were more likely to have chosen prophylactic mastectomy. The perceived impact (conflict, regret, cancer worry, and general well-being) of risk-reducing option selected was also explored. The direction of these relationships indicates that having chosen prophylactic mastectomy was associated with less decisional conflict (r = -.38, p ≤ .0001), decisional regret (r = -.58, p ≤ .0001), depressive symptomatology (r = -.19, p ≤ .05), and cancer worry (r = -.39, p ≤ .0001). The results suggest higher assessments of advantages over disadvantages of prophylactic mastectomy, doctor recommendation for prophylactic mastectomy exclusively, and higher cancer worry at time of testing is associated with choosing the risk-reducing option of prophylactic mastectomy. In addition, women who chose prophylactic mastectomy fared better psychologically than those who did not. Continued research addressing decision making variables and the impact of risk-reducing decisions may lead to improved understanding on how best to approach these difficult decisions.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract The variety of currents and voltages adopted by North American railroads between 1895 and 1931 is sometimes seen as confusing. Railroads faced choices between direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC), as well as among different voltages. But closer analysis shows a clear order to the specifications chosen. The technology options available at the time and the intended functions of these installations explain the specifications that railroads chose. Railroads electrifying fell into three basic groups: 1. Early adopters (usually requiring electrification for tunnels), 2. Railroads electrifying after 1910 for commuter service, and 3. Railroads that electrified for, or at least with freight service in mind. Each of these faced very different sets of options, and made their choice of electrical specifications accordingly. There were four basic combinations of current and voltage: 1. Low-voltage DC delivered via third rail, 2. Medium-voltage DC, 3. Higher-voltage DC, and 4. AC (almost always single-phase at 11,000 Volts, 25 Hertz). For railroads in a given category, the practicable choices were in fact limited to one or two options. Contrary to what is sometimes thought, the different electrical specifications reflected an underlying logic, not disorder.

Abstract:
The stainless steel feedwater heater specifications, ASTM A688/ASME SA 688 and ASTM A803/SA 803, were developed over 30 years ago. At that time, no one envisioned the temperatures and pressures that today’s super and ultra-critical units would operate. The increased pressures, temperatures, and expectations for reliability require special manufacturing techniques and testing for long tube life. The current ASTM/ASME specifications should be considered minimum requirements, and for long term reliability a number of additional special manufacturing processes and tests are essential. This paper summarizes many of the manufacturing and testing choices that should be specified to ensure high reliability. It identifies the advantages and disadvantages of each option and provides suggestions on what should be specified to ensure a reliable cost-effective feedwater heater tube for today’s applications.

Abstract:
The transportation studies literature recognizes the relationship between accessibility and active travel. However, there is limited research on the specific impact of walking and cycling accessibility to multi-use paths on active travel behavior. Combined with the culture of automobile dependency in the US, this knowledge gap has been making it difficult for policy-makers to encourage walking and cycling mode choices, highlighting the need to promote a walking and cycling culture in cities. In this case, a clustering effect (“you bike, I bike”) can be used as leverage to initiate such a trend. This project contributes to the literature as one of the few published research projects that considers all typical categories of explanatory variables (individual and household socioeconomics, local built environment features, and travel and residential choice attitudes) as well as two new variables (accessibility to multi-use paths calculated by ArcGIS and a clustering effect represented by spatial autocorrelation) at two levels (level 1: binary choice of cycling/waking; level 2: cycling/walking time if yes at level 1) to better understand active travel demand. We use data from the 2012 Utah Travel Survey. At the first level, we use a spatial probit model to identify whether and why Salt Lake City residents walked or cycled. The second level is the development of a spatial autoregressive model for walkers and cyclists to examine what factors affect their travel time when using walking or cycling modes. The results from both levels, obtained while controlling for individual, attitudinal, and built-environment variables, show that accessibility to multi-use paths and a clustering effect (spatial autocorrelation) influence active travel behavior in different ways. Specifically, a cyclist is likely to cycle more when seeing more cyclists around. These findings provide analytical evidence to decision-makers for efficiently evaluating and deciding between plans and policies to enhance active transportation based on the two modeling approaches to assessing travel behavior described above.

Schulz, Florian, Jörg Wolstein, and Henriette Engelhardt-Wölfler. The choice of indicators influences conclusions about the educational gradient of sex-specific alcohol consumption. OPUS, 2019. http://dx.doi.org/10.20378/irbo-55267.

Full text
Abstract:
There has been considerable public interest in reports on harmful alcohol consumption of higher educated females. This study assesses the robustness of this finding with representative German data using ten different indicators of alcohol consumption. This cross-sectional study used data of the Epidemiological Survey on Substance Abuse from 2012. 4,225 females and 3,239 males represent the German population aged 18–64. It presents ten indicators of alcohol consumption by sex and education and provides group specific means and 95 %-confidence intervals. The main results are: (1) Higher educated males and females are drinking alcohol more frequently than lower educated males and females. (2) When drinking, higher educated males and females tend to drink less alcohol than lower educated males and females. (3) Only when using an indicator for hazardous alcohol consumption with different thresholds for males and females, the results indicate a pattern that significantly exposes hazardous alcohol consumption in the group of higher educated females. Concerning the choice of indicators, this study shows that sex-specific threshold-based indicators of alcohol consumption may lead to different conclusions as the majority of other indicators.

Abstract:
INDOT will soon be embarking on infrastructure planning to accommodate autonomous vehicles. This new technology affords the ability to impact economic value creation across the supply chain in Indiana, as well as foster economic development in Indiana to support these emerging technologies. This proposal will be a first cut towards exploring the development of a strategy to realize this potential. Our proposal will consist of two phases. Phase 1: A focus on industry choices and plans that can inform INDOT choices. Phase 2: A focus on INDOT’s internal decision making, risk tolerance, and choices regarding infrastructure projects.

Full text
Abstract:
Two studies were conducted to examine how individual interest predicts interactions with domain content and subsequent free-choice exploration. Particular focus was on learners’ acquisition of knowledge and identification of content that triggered curiosity. College student participants reported their individual interest, learned about a topic in ecology (Study 1, N = 85) and astronomy (Study 2, N = 184), responded to prompts for memory of the learning content and curiosity questions, and then had the opportunity to explore additional content related to the topic. In both studies individual interest interacted with whether students’ curiosity was triggered by particular content. In academic domains, individual interest in conjunction with curiosity may be the best predictor of continued behavioral exploration. The results are discussed in the context of the four-phase model of interest development.

Full text
Abstract:
A large literature documents the electoral benefits of clientelistic and programmatic policies in low-income states. We extend this literature by showing the cyclical electoral responses to a large programmatic intervention to expand access to secondary education in Tanzania over multiple electoral periods. Using a difference-indifference approach, we find that the incumbent party's vote share increased by 2 percentage points in the election following the policy's announcement as a campaign promise (2005), but decreased by -1.4 percentage points in the election following implementation (2010). We find no discernible electoral impact of the policy in 2015, two electoral cycles later. We attribute the electoral penalty in 2010 to how the secondary school expansion policy was implemented. Our findings shed light on the temporally-contingent electoral impacts of programmatic policies, and highlight the need for more research on how policy implementation structures public opinion and vote choice in low-income states.

Full text
Abstract:
Findings from a 3-year (2006-2009) evaluation of the PROMISE Model pilot are presented in this policy brief that seeks to address three questions: 1) What is the PROMISE Model ?; 2) What changes occurred in schools as a results of implementing the PROMISE Model ?; and 3) What are the lessons learned from the PROMISE Model pilot that can contribute to an understanding of school reform for English Learners? A qualitative, ethnographic approach allowed for exploration of the research questions. The researcher identified five foundational elements to the PROMISE Model. Implementation of the PROMISE Model increased use of EL specific research-based approaches to student grouping, placement, instruction, school structures, curriculum choices, program design and practices in addition to more knowledgeable and advocacy-oriented leaders and distributive leadership. The brief presents five lessons learned that contribute to a deeper understanding of the impact of a school reform model on English Learners. Two policy recommendations include: 1) broadly disseminate research on effective EL education and provide an infrastructure of support with EL expertise; and 2) adopt the PROMISE Model or components of the model as a viable school improvement strategy.

Schwieger, Alexandra, Kaelee Shrewsbury, and Paul Shaver. Dexmedetomidine vs Fentanyl in Attenuating the Sympathetic Surge During Endotracheal Intubation: A Scoping Review. University of Tennessee Health Science Center, July 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.21007/con.dnp.2021.0007.

Full text
Abstract:
Purpose/Background Direct laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation after induction of anesthesia can cause a reflex sympathetic surge of catecholamines caused by airway stimulation. This may cause hypertension, tachycardia, and arrhythmias. This reflex can be detrimental in patients with poor cardiac reserve and can be poorly tolerated and lead to adverse events such as myocardial ischemia. Fentanyl, a potent opioid, with a rapid onset and short duration of action is given during induction to block the sympathetic response. With a rise in the opioid crisis and finding ways to change the practice in medicine to use less opioids, dexmedetomidine, an alpha 2 adrenergic agonist, can decrease the release of norepinephrine, has analgesic properties, and can lower the heart rate. Methods In this scoping review, studies published between 2009 and 2021 that compared fentanyl and dexmedetomidine during general anesthesia induction and endotracheal intubation of surgical patients over the age of 18 were included. Full text, peer-reviewed studies in English were included with no limit on country of study. The outcomes included post-operative reviews of decrease in pain medication usage and hemodynamic stability. Studies that were included focused on hemodynamic variables such as systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, heart rate, and use of opioids post-surgery. Result Of 2,114 results from our search, 10 articles were selected based on multiple eligibility criteria of age greater than 18, patients undergoing endotracheal intubation after induction of general anesthesia, and required either a dose of dexmedetomidine or fentanyl to be given prior to intubation. Dexmedetomidine was shown to effectively attenuate the sympathetic surge during intubation over fentanyl. Dexmedetomidine showed a greater reduction in heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure than fentanyl, causing better hemodynamic stability in patients undergoing elective surgery.Implications for Nursing Practice Findings during this scoping review indicate that dexmedetomidine is a safe and effective alternative to fentanyl during induction of general anesthesia and endotracheal intubation in attenuating the hemodynamic response. It is also a safe choice for opioid-free anesthesia.
