We generalize the previously developed Non-PH CTDL-Gamma and
the PH Weibull-Gamma frailty models to correlated survival data. In particular,
we seek analytical results using the marginal approach, to determine whether ...
The near non-identifiability of one of the parameters in the Generalized
Time-Dependent Logistic (GTDL) Survival Model (MacKenzie, 1996, 1997)
is discussed. A new canonical 3-parameter logistic model survival model,
in ...
The survival function of the logistic proportional hazards (PH) regression
model, MacKenzie (1996), is obtained. A general likelihood for interval
censored survival data which depends only on various closed forms of ...

While the term specialist in nursing can be traced to the turn of the 20th Century, it is only since 2001 that a framework was developed for a clinical career pathway in Ireland. This framework has promoted the development ...

Traditionally, nurses have been over-managed and led inadequately, yet today they face
unprecedented challenges and opportunities. Organisations constantly face changes that require an increasingly adaptive and flexible ...

The fast, unstructured and turbulent nature of decision making in agile software development (ASD) teams at times necessitates software-based support tools (Dabrowski, Acton, Drury, Conboy, and Dabrowska, 2011). The demands ...

One of the most widely used Agile software development (ASD) methods is Scrum. The
underlying inspiration for Scrum came from an examination of new product development (NPD). This work proposes that the combination of six ...
This study goes beyond a binary view of adoption and instead examines the more
complex nature of cloud computing assimilation. It examines (i) acceptance, the extent
to which an organization’s members are committed to ...
The non-PH Canonical Time Dependent Logistic (CTDL) survival re-
gression model is extended by incorporating a positive stable frailty component
into the hazard function within the Bayesian framework. The resulting model ...
The construction of classical co-morbidity indices is described. When
the co-morbidities are binary we advocate the use of log-linear models which
better capture the dependence structure in the data. We use R to implement ...
