Objectives:
Domestic accidents are an important topic as for different viewpoints: for the people that could be victim of them, for the health and economic systems. It could be imagined that people affected by neurological diseases, such as Multiple Sclerosis (MS), could incur into domestic accidents more frequently than people in the general population. Aim of the present work is to introduce a survey's questionnaire for registering occurrence and characteristics of domestic accidents in a population with particular features such as MS patients.
Methods:
In 2011, a first edition of this survey questionnaire was already proposed and then applied with a sample of MS patients (QuID).
Results:
A subsequent newest version of the test (QuID-II) has then been proposed, based on the information collected and on the limits showed by that first edition.
Conclusions:
With this new version deepen information can be collected on the characteristics, the biological, environmental and behavioural risk factors for the occurrence of domestic accidents, and this could be useful in planning prevention programs.

01:25Multiple Regression
Farmers can use multiple regression to determine the crop yield based on more than one factor, such as water availability, fertilizer, soil properties, etc. Here, the crop yield is the response or dependent variable as it depends on the other independent variables. The analysis requires the construction of a scatter plot...
01:25Multiple Voltage Sources
In series, the positive terminal of one battery is connected to the negative terminal of another battery. Hence, the voltage of each battery is added to give the net voltage, which is increased because each battery boosts the electrons that enter it. The same current flows through each battery because they are connected in series.
Batteries are...

It would be easy to compare two samples using a significance alpha level of 0.05. In other words, there is only one sample pair to be compared. However, it would be difficult to identify a significantly different sample if the number...
