    Objectives Abdominal fat may be a better predictor than body mass index (BMI) for risk of metabolically‐related diseases, such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and some cancers. We sought to validate the percent fat reported on dual energy X‐ray absorptiometry (DXA) regional spine scans (spine fat fraction, SFF) against abdominal fat obtained from total body scans using the iDXA machine (General Electric, Madison, WI), as previously done on t…

    Open AccessIvo L Abraham, Ivo Abraham et al.ARTICLEPsychological Reports1990

    In planning and implementing a study, we unintentionally and serendipitously obtained data about changes in resident mix over a 2.8-yr. period. We screened residents of a 184-bed nursing home for cognition and sensorium in October 1984 to assess sampling feasibility for a grant proposal in preparation. At that time, 65.2% of the residents met the sampling criteria. However, in July/August 1987, after award of funding, only 5.4% of residents of th…

    Open AccessIvo L Abraham, Ivo AbrahamARTICLEPsychological Reports1985

In a study of the clinical inference of depression, alpha coefficients ranging from .68 to .96 were noted for the whole test and the subscales. The scale may prove helpful in the study of causal attributions about the mental health…
