Factors of Convergence and Divergence in Union Membership
No full textThis paper considers to what extent union decline in Britain has been characterised by convergence or divergence in union membership rates for people with different personal and job characteristics. It compares data on individual union membership in 1975, from a period when union membership was high and growing, to data in 2001 data when it is low and has been falling for over twenty years. Some factors of both convergence and divergence are identified. The clearest individual characteristic of convergence is gender. In 1975 there was a big male-female gap in union membership, whilst by 2001 one cannot reject the hypothesis that union membership rates were equal for men and women. The clearest case of divergence is age where the 1975-2001 period sees a widening of the age gap in union membership status. Other factors of convergence are the full- time/part-time status of jobs, ethnicity and workplace size. Other factors of divergence are industry and educational qualifications. Some other factors (like region) are neutral in that their relationship with union membership remains stable through time. Identification of these factors of convergence and divergence should be useful to many parties, including industrial relations scholars and union organisers. Finally, the fact that the magnitude of the relationships between union membership and a number of its determinants have shifted through time illustrates that one should be careful if one wishes to talk about empirical regularities in who is more or less likely to become a trade union member.
Statistical aspects of clinical trials
No full textThis thesis presents a book and a collection of published papers concerned with statistical aspects of clinical trials. It is divided into six chapters emphasising design, the protocol, quality control, analysis, prognosis and statistical theory.3OCThe design section is mainly concerned with the estimation of patient numbers required for a randomised trial in order to detect a pre-specified clinically worthwhile difference between treatments for a given test size and power. It includes corresponding tables for sample sizes.Several examples of summary protocols and papers on organisational, data management and analysis aspects of clinical trials are included. Two papers describe the evolution of checklists for the assessment of the statistical quality of the design of clinical studies and their reporting.The results of cancer therapy trials, the effect of ultrasound on pressure sores, the evaluation of health education material and compliance with screening for colorectal cancer are described. Particular emphasis is placed on randomised trials of alternative therapies, including acupuncture and transcutaneous nerve stimulation, for the relief of chronic pain. The majority of these latter trials failed to achieve anticipated pre-trial efficacy for the active treatmentPrognostic factors are identified for gastro-intestinal lymphoma, the myelodysplastic syndromes and low back pain and sciatica.Theoretical papers describing the advantages of multi-centre as opposed to single centre trials, the possibility of incorporating non-randomised patients into a randomised trial, estimating the proportion of cured patients in cancer trials and the extension of a decision theoretic model for selecting medical treatments as an alternative to the classical randomised control trial are presented.</p
