多變量分析運用感想

最近在使用因素分析方法,分析水道參數之數據,此為下禮拜三多變量課程之團體口頭報告。原本以為因素分析只用在評估工具的驗證上,在做團體報告時,我問了提供數據的同學,為什麼他的數據要做因素分析,他的研究的目的和價值是什麼?
~~~~未來應該也會有人會問我的研究目的和價值是什麼,所以我也要想好我的理由!!

後來這位同學解釋他在一個三芝某個地區之4個水道中,收集許多測量樣點之水質參數,從分析水質參數中,確定水生生物所棲息的分怖和所需的環境因素,進而發展和規劃三芝的水生生態環境,三芝算是新北市尚未開發或污染之地,所以先知道哪個生態符合當地的水生生物,就可保護當地的水生生物的環境。

當下聽到,就覺得,哇!好有價值喔,其實OT假如要做的更廣的話,可以考慮到我們所處的生態環境,才能建造或改善當地的環境,進而促進當地人民的生活健康。

雖然現在OT所接觸的個案都是病患,但OT也可以介入未生病的病患,提供健康促進的方案,幫助人民有良好的生活品質。

Comments in the writing course (12/29)

1. 總結construct validity是好還是不好。convergent validity好,但divergent validity有部分好,有部分不好,可參考過去文獻(model paper),總結到底construct validity好不好。
2. 在陳述"假設"部分,要使用"肯定"語氣,不能使用"may"等不確定的字句。
3. 在divergent validity之假設解釋,未能顯示因果關係,字句間的連結不夠。
4. 在表格上,沒有數據的地方要補充。
5. 要注意文字排版。

原先之寫作
"To examine divergent validity, we assumed low correlations between the PF and MH scales, between the PF and RE scales, and between the RP and MH scales. Previous study stated that the PF and RP scales may simply explain physical health rather than mental health, and the MH and RP scales may simply explain mental health rather than physical health. The two physical health scales (i.e., the PF and RP scales) may have low correlations with the two mental health scales (i.e., the MH and RP scales). However, the RP and RE scales measured role disability, so a low correlation may not between these 2 scales. In addition, the other 4 scales (i.e., the BP, GH, VT, and SF scales) explained both physical health and mental health in varying degree, so low correlations may not be among these 4 scales."
"In brief, the construct validity of the SF-36 was supported by sufficient convergent validity of the 8 scales and sufficient divergent validity of the PF and MH scales, but not supported by insufficient divergent validity of the RP and RE scales in heroin abusers."

修改後之寫作
"To examine divergent validity, we assumed low correlations between the PF and MH scales, between the PF and RE scales, and between the RP and MH scales. These hypotheses were based on that the PF and RP scales simply explain physical health rather than mental health, and the MH and RP scales simply explain mental health rather than physical health. So, low correlations were found between the two physical health scales (i.e., the PF and RP scales) and the two mental health scales (i.e., the RE and MH scales) We did not assume a low correlation between the RP and RE scales, because these two scales measured role disability. In addition, we did not assume low correlations among other 4 scales (i.e., the BP, GH, VT, and SF scales), because these 4 scales measured both physical health and mental health in vary degree."
"In brief, the construct validity of the SF-36 was good with sufficient convergent validity and acceptable divergent validity in heroin abusers."

需要提升解釋數據的能力

最近在忙於多變量的作業和期末報告,發現在這快3個學期的統計學習中,我仍處於學習如何計算題目的層次。
算出數據後,要如何解釋數據,卻是讓我更苦腦!!
如何提升自己解釋數據的功力,更能對數據有"感覺"?

國科會之RPI表格

申請國科會計劃或其它的研究經費,常會需要填寫"生物處研究人員近5年內研究表現指數(RPI)"表格,此表格可於國科會網站內下載。

以下步驟為如何在國科為網站內找到RPI表格。
國科會首頁http://web1.nsc.gov.tw/è點選"快速連結" (首頁左邊)è點選"專題計畫申請辦法及表格"è點選"生物處專屬表格1"

2012/9/28更新
沒有RIP表格,也不再分表A和表B,改為"行政院國家科學委員會生物處學術研究績效表"。
此表獲得方式:國科會首頁http://web1.nsc.gov.tw/è點選"學術研究" (首頁左邊)è點選"專題研究計畫專區"è點選"專題研究計畫相關表格"è點選"生物處專屬表格1"
現在最近表格為2012/8/15版本。
