Research Proposal Title Impacts of Time Aggregation Effect of VAR model on Risk Measurements in UK Financial Markets Abstract Although many shortcomings of VaR model have been proposed and discussed, VaR is still a commonly used method to estimate potential risk within financial institutions. This paper will focus on the examination of time-aggregation assumption of VaR model in UK financial market. Also, it is necessary to test whether the currently proposed risk forecasting methods such as…

It is important to note that the measurement of TSA has received far less attention than individual-based SA. In their classic paper, Prince et al. (1997) outlined the importance of measuring TSA. Firstly, in order to move theory beyond the conceptual phase development of psychometric measurement tools is imperative. Secondly, quantifiable indicators of team SA will help in articulating the constituents of good SA. This information is important as it helps in providing feedback on the…

The imperfect understanding of kopienkritik combined with a wide dispersion of copy variations within the many modern collections of ‘copies’ may be responsible for the misperception of the role that economic factors actually played in Roman copy production. O. Brendel’ 1953 publication, ‘Prolegomena to a Book on Roman Art’, presents Rome as both a ‘political entity’ and a ‘historical period’ in which the art of replication flourished. According to this view, ‘Greek’ art, in essence, refers…

Medicine is considered as one of the most important necessity to medical care. Adherence to medication is a pivotal part of patient health care, for achieving pharmacotherapy out come and clinical goals. The World Health Organization defines Medication adherence as “the extent to which the persons’ behavior (including medication taking) corresponds with agreed recommendation from a healthcare provider”. And the Non adherence means opposite to this scenario. In some studies, Non adherence is…

of diffusion is amount of the hardness of the material. Rockwell superficial hardness tests by means of the same kind of indenters, then at lighter loads, have also been established. Various features of the Rockwell hardness test can affect the measurement result. These comprise the purpose and standardization of separate components of the hardness machine, differences in the indenter, the testing sequence that is used, the testing atmosphere, the condition of the test material, and the…

which their measurements and calculations were made. Significant figures are important to the scientific method because the results of experiments that are performed to test hypotheses can be altered due to mistakes of significant figures. Measurements are only as accurate as the instrument that is used to make them. For example, if a metric ruler is divided into millimeters, then a more precise measurement, such as micrometers, cannot be made. They determine how precise a measurement is.…

strobus (Eastern White Pine) trees found that drought stress increased with height, the xylem pressure potential at the bottom branches measuring at -1.2MPa and at the top branches, -1.8MPa (Fulton et al. 2014; Woodruff et al. 2007). These inverse measurements also follow an upward trend of water tension, demonstrating that the water tension relationship with tree height is not limited to a particular…

The patient safety team worked with the Interprofessional education team and created a web based self-learning module. Meeting times were established to discuss literature on alarm management and create the test. Measurement of success was the online attendance and completion record and test scores for the program. Step Six Local work groups were to update the tools with the NPSG questions. The Excel grid was to establish the current snap shot of alarm devices and…

This discussion question is quite prescient as I am drafting a survey for the Hospital where I work concerning what is called Safe Patient Handling and the training surrounding it. From a regulatory standpoint, a Hospital is required to safely handle patients during transfer to treatment, from bed to chair and from another medical device back to bed. Our facility maintains a policy which is considered minimal lift meaning a staff member will utilize equipment to maneuver a patient before using…

Mindy is a 31yo, G2 P1001, who was seen for an ultrasound evaluation for dating and fetal anatomy assessment. This is the patient’s first ultrasound. Overall, she denies any major medical disorders. She reportedly is hypothyroid but is currently not on treatment. I am uncertain as to whether or not she has had a thyroid study performed. She states that her primary issue has been heartburn and was told to try some TUMS. She also has had some nausea and is on Unisom and vitamin B6. Based on…
