Aspects of Psychiatry the development of modern medicine, traditional medicine was regarded as an old fashioned way of practice and In western countries, the 19th century marks a turning point theory, and consequently, traditional medicine mostly was for the beginning of psychiatry as an academic discipline. not taught at medical schools and universities.

References to other people’s work have been duly cited. STUDENT: JUDITH S. GARR (PG1150417) Signature: ...........................................................

BAIDEN Signature: ........................................................... Date: ................................................................... i ABSTRACT Mining activities are undertaken in many parts of the world where mineral deposits are found. In developing nations such as Ghana, the activity is done both legally and illegally, often with very little or no supervision, hence much damage is done to the water bodies where the activities are carried out. This study sought to assess the social impacts of illegal gold mining activities at Dunkwa-On-Offin, the capital town of Upper Denkyira East Municipality in the Central Region of Ghana. The main objectives of the research are to identify factors that trigger illegal mining; to identify social effects of illegal gold mining activities on inhabitants of Dunkwa-on-Offin; and to suggest effective ways in curbing illegal mining activities. Based on the approach to data collection, this study adopts both the quantitative and qualitative approach.

  • Applied Econometrics Using MATLAB
    Applied Econometrics using MATLAB James P. LeSage Department of Economics University of Toledo CIRCULATED FOR REVIEW October, 1998 2 Preface This text describes a set of MATLAB functions that implement a host of econometric estimation methods. Toolboxes are the name given by the MathWorks to related sets of MATLAB functions aimed at solving a par- ticular class of problems. Toolboxes of functions useful in signal processing, optimization, statistics, nance and a host of other areas are available from the MathWorks as add-ons to the standard MATLAB software distribution. I use the termEconometrics Toolbox to refer to the collection of function libraries described in this book. The intended audience is faculty and students using statistical methods, whether they are engaged in econometric analysis or more general regression modeling. The MATLAB functions described in this book have been used in my own research as well as teaching both undergraduate and graduate econometrics courses. Researchers currently using Gauss, RATS, TSP, or SAS/IML for econometric programming might nd switching to MATLAB advantageous. MATLAB software has always had excellent numerical algo- rithms, and has recently been extended to include: sparse matrix algorithms, very good graphical capabilities, and a complete set of object oriented and graphical user-interface programming tools. MATLAB software is available on a wide variety of computing platforms including mainframe, Intel, Apple, and Linux or Unix workstations. When contemplating a change in software, there is always the initial investment in developing a set of basic routines and functions to support econometric analysis. It is my hope that the routines in the Econometrics Toolbox provide a relatively complete set of basic econometric analysis tools.

  • Non-Inferiority, Superiority, Equivalence, and Two-Sided Tests Vs
    NCSS Statistical Software NCSS.com Chapter 516 Two Proportions – Non-Inferiority, Superiority, Equivalence, and Two- Sided Tests vs. a Margin Introduction This chapter documents four closely related procedures: non-inferiority tests, superiority (by a margin) tests, equivalence tests, and two-sided tests versus a margin. These procedures compute both asymptotic and exact confidence intervals and hypothesis tests for the difference, ratio, and odds ratio of two proportions. Non-Inferiority Tests Non-inferiority tests are one-sided hypothesis tests in which the null and alternative hypotheses are arranged to test whether one group is almost as good (not much worse) than the other group. So, we might be interested in showing that a new, less-expensive method of treatment is no worse than the current method of treatment. Superiority Tests Superiority tests are one-sided hypothesis tests in which the null and alternative hypotheses are arranged to test whether one group is better than the other group by more than a stated margin. So, we might be interested in showing that a new method of treatment is better by more than a clinically insignificant amount. Equivalence Tests Equivalence tests are used to show conclusively that two methods (i.e. drugs) are equivalent. The conventional method of testing equivalence hypotheses is to perform two, one-sided tests (TOST) of hypotheses. The null hypothesis of non-equivalence is rejected in favor of the alternative hypothesis of equivalence if both one-sided tests are rejected. Unlike the common two-sided tests, however, the type I error rate is set directly at the nominal level (usually 0.05)—it is not split in half.
