摘要:
A social indicator model of the health services system serving the state of New Mexico is presented. The model specifies the causal relationships hypothesized as existing among a set of social, demographic, and economic variables known to be related to the supply and use of health manpower and facilities, and to the health status of a population. Inclusion of feedback into the model as well as lagged values of endogenous variables permits the examination of the dynamic behavior of the social system over time. Methods for deriving the reduced and final forms of the structural model are presented along with their equations. The structural and reduced form equations have been used to predict the consequences for one New Mexico county of state and federal policies that would affect the organization and delivery of health services.

摘要:
Proportional Reduction in Error (PRE) interpretations for three generalized product-moment statistics are provided. The PRE interpretation for M2, the generalized multiple correlation coefficient, theoretically consolidates and extends those developed for R2, Rs2, Moron's multiple τ2, T2, multiple ϕ2and various other hybrid special cases of M2. That for partial Γ2, provides PRE interpretations for partial r2, partial rs2, Kendall's partial τ2, partial tau-b2, partial ϕ2, and various other hybrid special cases of partial Γ2. The PRE interpretation for the square of the generalized multiple-partial correlation coefficient in effect defines multiple-partial correlation coefficients for rank, ordinal, dichotomous and hybrid systems of variables.This research has several implications. First, it documents that generalized summary statistics such as M2have valid interpretations even when the generalized regression equation has a constant term of zero due to being based on the comparison of pairs of observations. Second, it provides PRE interpretations for the ordinal special cases based on Kendall's tau-b: the square of multiple tau-b, the square of partial tau-b, and a new multiple- partial tau-b statistic. Finally, it provides PRE interpretations for summary statistics for systems of variables that combine interval, rank, ordinal, and dichotomous information.
