The topic of this manuscript is both timely and of great importance. As the utility of the behavioral approach with respect to treatment of autism continues to receive empirical support as well as popular support, issues of costยฑbeneยฎt and early intervention become even more important. The central t

require extraordinary evidence.'' This maxim might well serve as a touchstone for those working in early intensive behavioral intervention (EIBI) for autism. Clearly, many mainstream autism professionals view claims about the ecacy of EIBI as extraordinary, especially reports that some children with autism have achieved normal functioning (e.g.

I am pleased to be able to oer comments about this manuscript. It represents an attempt to disseminate interim data on the response of a group of young children with autism to home-based early intensive behavioral intervention (EIBI) using treatment formats based on those of the UCLA Young Autism Pr
Hauer's ideas on the proper use of statistical inference in safety countermeasure evaluation are discussed and some problems are pointed out.
A validation based on solvation energies (vacuum to water transfer) is not sufficient to justify the use of approximated models of electrostatics to rank ligand/protein complexes. A full validation should be based on energies in solution, i.e., solvation plus vacuum Coulomb energies, because of the
Kinetic analysis of an energy transfer dye laser is presented. 'lie laser gain function depends on the molecular parameters and on ?he concentrations of both the donor and acceptor. For the lo? signal limit the gain shows linear dependence on either the donor or the acceptor concentrations for a fix
## Abstract The problem of estimating the shapeโparameter of a distribution is considered. We introduce a class of estimators the distributions of which are independent of location and scale. An estimator proposed by Weiss [1] is a member of this class. We find the asymptotically most efficient est
