University students' academic achievement measured by means of academic progress is modeled through linear and logistic regression, employing prior achievement and demographic factors as predictors. The main aim of the present paper is to compare results yielded by both statistical procedures, in order to identify the most suitable approach in terms of goodness of fit and predictive power. Grades awarded in basic scientific courses and demographic variables were entered into the models at the first step. Two hypotheses are proposed: (a) Grades in basic courses as well as demographic factors are directly related to academic progress, and (b) Logistic regression is more appropriate than linear regression due to its higher predictive power. Results partially confirm the first prediction, as grades are positively related to progress. However, not all demographic factors considered proved to be good predictors. With regard to the second hypothesis, logistic regression was shown to be a better approach than linear regression, yielding more stable estimates with regard to the presence of ill-fitting patterns.

This study aimed to determine the effect of emotional quotient (EQ) and communication skill(CS) on student academic achievement (AC). This quantitative studyis explanation type using quota sampling and the analysis used classical assumption test and multiple linear regression analysis.The result of t test showed that both independent variableX1 (EQ) and independent variable X2 (CS) had no effect on dependent variable Y (AC) as evidenced by significance value X1=0.185 (e”0.05) and value significance X2=0.398 (e”0.05). F test results showed that there was no effect between independent variable X1 and independent variable X2 to dependent variable Y simultaneously known from F significance value that is equal to 0.410 (e”0.05). The conclusions are: EQ has no effect on academic achievement; communication skill has no effect on academic achievement; and simultaneously EQ and communication skill have no effect on academic achievement.

<p><em>This study aims to analyze differences in demographic factors towards retirement planning behavior according to Islamic perspective. This research wants to analyze the influence of clarity of purpose, retirement attitude and potential conflict towards retirement planning behavior according to among the Muslim who is working in a conventional bank and the Islamic Bank. The sample used in this study as many as 270 respondents of both conventional &amp; Islamic Banker in Indonesia.   There are two methods that are used in this research which are ANOVA and Multiple Linear Regression. The results identified several demographic variables that were significant such employment status (either working in the conventional bank or Islamic Bank) and income level. Furthermore, some demographic variables do not significant including age, number of dependents and level of education. This research also shows that non-demographic variables such as clarity of purpose, retirement attitudes and potential conflicts affect significantly to influence the behavior of bankers in retirement planning according to Islamic perspective.  In conclusion, the conventional Muslim bankers know that they should manage their retirement according to the Shariah value. However, some of them didn’t believe that the Shariah investment instrument can fulfill their desired retirement goals. </em></p>

Abstract Aim Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) is one of the most used tests for the screening of global cognition in patients with neurological and medical disorders. Norms for the Italian version of the test were published in the 90 s; more recent norms were published in 2020 for Southern Italy only. In the present study, we computed novel adjustment coefficients, equivalent scores and cut-off value for Northern Italy (Lombardia and Veneto) and Italian speaking Switzerland. Methods We recruited 361 healthy young and old (range: 20–95 years) individuals of both sexes (men: 156, women: 205) and from different educational levels (range: 4–22 years). Neuropsychiatric disorders and severe medical conditions were excluded with a questionnaire and cognitive deficits and were ruled out with standardized neuropsychological tests assessing the main cognitive domains. We used a slightly modified version of MMSE: the word ‘fiore’ was replaced with ‘pane’ in verbal recalls to reduce the common interference error ‘casa, cane, gatto’. The effect of socio-demographic features on performance at MMSE was assessed via multiple linear regression, with test raw score as dependent variable and sex, logarithm of 101—age and square root of schooling as predictors. Results Mean raw MMSE score was 28.8 ± 1.7 (range: 23–30). Multiple linear regression showed a significant effect of all socio-demographic variables and reported a value of R2 = 0.26. The new cut off was ≥ 26 /30. Conclusion We provide here updated norms for a putatively more accurate version of Italian MMSE, produced in a Northern population but potentially valid all over Italy.

Ryerson University does not have a means to gauge electricity consumption for half of their campus buildings. The installation of utility meters is outside of the University’s budget, a situation that may be similar across other academic institutions. A multiple linear regression approach to estimating consumption for academic buildings is an ideal tool that balances performance and utility. Using 80 buildings from Ryerson University and the University of Toronto, significant building characteristics were identified (from a selection of 18 variables) that show a strong linear relationship with electricity consumption. Four equations were created to represent the diversity in size of academic buildings. Tested using cross-validation, the coefficient of variation of the RMSE for all models was 33%, with a range of error between 20% and 43%. The models were highly successful at modeling electricity consumption at Ryerson University with an average error of 14.8% for five building clusters. Using metered data from each cluster, raw estimates for individual buildings were adjusted to improve accuracy.

Air pollution is a risk factor for the population health. Its harmful effects on the population are observed even when the atmospheric pollutants are within the parameters set out in specific legislation, and they develop mainly through respiratory diseases. The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between the concentrations of air pollutants and the incidence of respiratory diseases in the city of Porto Alegre, in 2005 and 2006. Applied multiple linear regression analysis, ordinal logistic regression and generalized linear models were used in the work. The results show good adjustment by the three techniques. The ordinal logistic regression detected only positive influence of air temperature and relative humidity in hospitalizations for respiratory diseases. Multiple linear regression related negatively hospitalizations with meteorological variables and positively with the particulate matter (PM10). The generalized linear model detected negative influence of meteorological variables and positive of pollutants, tropospheric ozone (O3) and PM10 in hospitalizations. Comparing the three statistical techniques to analyze the same data set, it can be concluded that all of them had a model with good fit to the data, but the technique of generalized linear models showed higher sensitivity in capturing the influence of pollutants, except in ordinal logistic regression and multiple linear regression.
