(Wiley, 2019-06)AIM : To adapt the Youth‐Friendly Health Services‐World Health Organization+ questionnaire to suit the health needs of youth in the South African context, and estimate its psychometric properties. BACKGROUND : Youth‐friendly ...
-
(National Statistical Institute of Portugal, 2020-07)This paper paves the way when the assumption of normality is challenged within the wireless communications systems arena. Innovative results pertaining to the distributions of quadratic forms and their associated eigenvalue ...
-
(Elsevier, 2016-09)Consistent associations have been found between advanced paternal age and an increased risk of psychiatric disorders, such as schizophrenia in their offspring. This increase appears to be linear as paternal age increases. ...
-
(Springer, 2017-03)High levels of crime in South Africa and the resulting court cases requiring bite mark evidence have necessitated continuous research into the prevalence and interrelationship of recognisable dental features present in ...
-
(Springer, 2017-05)The exponential distribution is a popular model both in practice and in theoretical work. As a result, a multitude of tests based on varied characterisations have been developed for testing the hypothesis that observed ...
-
(Elsevier, 2015-04)In a country notorious for violent crime, it seems that South African medico-legal laboratories make minimal application of technology in the death investigation process and little attention is given to trace evidence. ...

(Taylor and Francis, 2020)Balakrishnan et al. proposed a two-piece skew logistic distribution by making use of the cumulative distribution function (CDF) of half distributions as the building block, to give rise to an asymmetric family of two-piece ...
-
(Elsevier, 2008-12)OBJECTIVE: The auditory steady-state response (ASSR) to air-conduction (AC) stimuli has been widely incorporated into audiological test-batteries for the pediatric population. The current understanding of ASSR to bone ...
-
(Taylor and Francis, 2024)Statistical process monitoring (SPM) offers an important toolkit used to monitor the stability of a process to improve the quality of outputs and/or services. More often, the design of control charts requires the estimation ...
-
(Wiley, 2019-09)This study presents a method for estimating two area‐characteristic natural hazard recurrence parameters. The mean activity rate and the frequency–size power law exponent are estimated using Bayesian inference on combined ...
-
(Sage, 2019-12)Real phenomena often leads to challenges in data. One of these is outliers or influential values. Especially in a small sample, these values can have a major influence on the modeling process. In the beta regression ...
-
(Routledge, 2011-11)In this article, the bimatrix variate beta Type IV distribution is derived from independent Wishart distributed matrix variables. We explore specific properties of this distribution which is then used to derive the exact ...
-
(Routledge, 2013)In this article, a bivariate generalisation of the gamma distribution is proposed by using an unsymmetrical bivariate characteristic function; an extension to the non central case also receives attention. The probability ...
-
(Routledge, 2023)The logistics and cost of running large class tutorials to improve learning for students in high enrolment courses raise questions about whether the associated effort and cost are worthwhile. The option to replace these ...
-
(Elsevier, 2018-12)Kernel smoothing is commonly used in spatial point patterns to construct intensity plots. Kernels allow for visually and subjectively inferring on first-order stationarity. Formal objective tests exist for testing first-order ...
-
(American Society of Agronomy, 2012)Growing maize (Zea mays) in association with legume tree in agroforestry arrangements has been shown to increase yields in many parts of sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). However, the stability of crop yields has not been ...
-
(Wiley, 2016-09)OBJECTIVES : The purpose of this study was to measure the mandibular angle as a reflection of the biomechanical forces acting on the mandible and relate it to aging and loss of teeth. METHODS : A total of 717 mandibles ...
-
(Elsevier, 2017-12)The inflammatory burden of the complex rheumatoid arthritis (RA) disease affects several organ-systems, including rheological properties of blood and its formed elements. Red blood cells (RBCs) are constantly exposed to ...
-
(Taylor and Francis, 2018-01)According to research children living with HIV experience elevated levels of depression, anxiety, ADHD and disruptive behavioural disorders. Although South Africa’s paediatric population that is infected with the human ...
