additional variable
We employ one additional variable other than the predicted equilibrium conditions in our analyses.
background variable
The groups did not differ in any of the background variables.
binary variable
I specified the lines graphed be for the different values of the binary variable of interest.
categorical variable
Firstly, this patronymic indicator is constructed as a categorical variable and not as a continuous one.
climatic variable
For individual species, we document the climatic variable that was most strongly correlated with the number of individuals fruiting and flowering.
clinical variables
There was no significant difference between drop-outs and completers on any demographic or clinical variables.
complex variable
This approach is clearly possible in any number of space dimensions; a complex variable approach necessarily limits the dimension to two.
composite variable
Rather, a composite variable was created by averaging four components.
confounding variable
This study also provides a perspective on another important confounding variable in victimization impact studies: preexisting symptoms.
contextual variable
These studies show that two fairly different approaches to the definition of the contextual variable are possible.
continuous variable
This was a continuous variable expressed in cruzeiros.
control variable
Thus, the type of emotion should have been inserted as a control variable.
cultural variable
In addition to linguistic differences, cultural variables also influence noun and verb learning.
demographic variable
Another demographic variable that may contribute to victimization is gender.
dichotomous variable
Probandwise concordance rates and tetrachoric correlations calculated for the dichotomous variable.
dummy variable
A dummy variable for high altitude separates the study region into two major climate zones.
endogenous variable
Therefore, individual decisions depend on this cross-sectional distribution, which is itself an endogenous variable that varies over time.
environmental variable
These values need not be related to any measured environmental variable.
exogenous variable
Clearly, the critique does not apply for changes in an exogenous variable.
explanatory variable
In all estimations, the inflation rate is also included as another explanatory variable.
external variable
The second external variable that was contrasted was register.
extraneous variable
Two steps were taken to eliminate previous knowledge as a potentially extraneous variable.
hidden variable
Since explicit word-level alignments are not present in standard parallel corpora, the alignment position for each target word is treated as a hidden variable.
individual-level variable
This suggested that the effects of these variables should be freed to vary whereas the effects of the other individual-level variables could be fixed.
input variable
In more general cases, both steps may yield multiple output variable typings from an input variable typing.
instrumental variable
Furthermore, the analysis lacked the data required to disentangle the two effects by using, for instance, instrumental variable estimation techniques.
intervening variable
In this respect, empathy can be viewed as an intervening variable.
key variable
The discussion above argued that a key variable omitted from such analyses is ideology.
latent variable
At least one latent variable could be considered trivial.
linguistic variable
A variationist definition of an isogloss would identify where quantitative or qualitative differences within the linguistic variable are found between speech localities.
macroeconomic variable
In so doing, the economic costs of the tax system would necessarily be lower, economic efficiency higher and possibly the record on some crucial macroeconomic variable improved.
measured variable
For each measured variable, the mean and standard error of mean were calculated.
mediating variable
Thus, the interventions influence change in the mediating variable that, in turn, influences the outcome.
moderating variable
When we tested the effect of neuroticism interacting with stress, the pathway from stress to the moderating variable had a value of zero.
moderator variable
A fourth possible moderator variable is the intelligence level of participants.
observed variable
We can think of these variances in precisely the same way as we do when thinking about any observed variable.
omitted variable
Omitted variable bias is thus a major potential problem.
ordinal variable
A simple ordinal variable reflecting the tendency for government satisfaction to decline and then rise again between elections.
outcome variable
Similar results also are obtained when the outcome variable taps adolescent competence with peers.
personality variable
They suggested that this personality variable explains why one person will speak and another will not in similar situations.
physiological variable
The measure also appears to have good predictive validity and correlates with a variety of physiological variables in the expected direction.
predictor variable
The gross effect refers to probability of a predictor variable to explain variation in the dependent variable without taking other factors into account.
primary variable
More importantly for our purposes, however, controlling for regime type leaves our primary variable of interest unaltered.
psychological variable
None of these psychological variables were correlated with the mercury levels in the biological media.
psychosocial variable
The final psychosocial variable that is closely related to life satisfaction is social network (including social support, social integration and interpersonal relationships).
relationship variable
Variation in regression coefficients among the six clusters was also found using the 24 relationship variables.
response variable
The response variable was the proportion of individuals in a given stage found in each plant.
set variable
Choosing a fresh set variable in this manner yields a more accurate analysis.
sociodemographic variable
The initial measures addressed sociodemographic variables, psychological\\psychiatric problems and social disability.
static variable
However, our divisions are still congruent: the value of a static variable cannot depend on a dynamic value.
study variable
To clarify the independent contribution of the study variables in relation to the outcome variable, multivariate analysis was required.
unknown variable
In this work is an unknown variable and is determined analytically.
variable factor
This was the only seasonal difference that was not explained by some other seasonally variable factor.
variable incidence
A plane shock generator of variable incidence, fully spanning the tunnel, produced an oblique shock which impinged on the boundary layer of the tunnel floor.
variable length
Two introns and 3 exons of variable length were present in all the alleles.
variable proportion
The variable proportion of matrix consists of vitric fragments and crystals similar to those in the overlying welded ignimbrite.
