Checking references

We thank Mrs Joan Smith, librarian of the Research School of Chemistry, ANU, for her generous help in many library matters which have made the tedious task of checking references more enduring. 

If the mixture is separated by a continuous flash process and the components are considered insoluble in water (check references) and the feed enters at the flash chamber at 20°C, calculate the mols of steam condensed, the total mols steam required per 100 mols of feed, and... 

Caution should be used in selecting a contractor to provide this startup service. Check references very carefully. 

Many of these are substantially non-nucleophilic and unlikely to effect the rate or course of the reaction, although this should always be checked. References 29 to 31 relate some problems in the use of some of these buffers. Occasionally, one of the reactants being used in excess may possess buffer capacity and this obviates the necessity for added buffer. The situation will often arise in the study of complex ion-ligand interactions when either reactant may be involved in an acid-base equilibrium. 

The author gratefully acknowledges the helpful criticism of Dr. Lee L. Bennett, Jr. Thanks are due to Mr. Vladimir Minic and Miss Linda Scott for checking references to the literature and to Mrs. Frances K. Hoffman for preparation of the manuscript.

Conduct background checks — at minimum, check references and confirm education and certification. 

Background and reference checks on job candidates Always check references... 

As the hiring supervisor, you need to check references once you have narrowed down your candidate field fo a couple of finalisfs. Always check references. Unforfunately, people are not always exactly as they portray themselves to be, and you owe it to yourself and fo your organization fo know whom you are hiring. 

We thank Ms Emily Gibson for compiling and checking references. This article is dedicated to the memory of Professor John Sanderson Haldane, FRS (1861-1936), who conducted experiments on himself with poisonous carbon monoxide to save the life of miners, and whose laws on the exchange of gases remain valid even today.

In contrast to the hypothesis testing style of model selection/discrimination, the posterior predictive check (PPC) assesses the predictive performance of the model. This approach allows the user to reformulate the model selection decision to be based on how well the model performs. This approach has been described in detail by Gelman et al. (27) and is only briefly discussed here. PPC has been assessed for PK analysis in a non-Bayesian framework by Yano et al. (40). Yano and colleagues also provide a detailed assessment of the choice of test statistics. The more commonly used test statistic is a local feature of the data that has some importance for model predictions for example, the maximum or minimum concentration might be important for side effects or therapeutic success (see Duffull et al. (6)) and hence constitutes a feature of the data that the model would do well to describe accurately. The PPC can be defined along the fines that posterior refers to conditioning of the distribution of the parameters on the observed values of the data, predictive refers to the distribution of future unobserved quantities, and check refers to how well the predictions reflect the observations (41). This method is used to answer the question Does the observed data look plausible under the posterior distribution This method is therefore solely a check of internal consistency of the model in question.
