Optimization of Behavioral, Biobehavioral, and Biomedical Interventions: The Multiphase Optimization Strategy is the first book to present a comprehensive introduction to MOST. It will be an essential resource for behavioral, biobehavioral, and biomedical scientists; statisticians, biostatisticians, and analysts working in epidemiology and public health; and graduate-level courses in development and evaluation of interventions. 410 0$aStatistics for Social and Behavioral Sciences,$x2199-7357 606 $aStatistics 606 $aBehavioral sciences 606 $aPsychology?Methodology 606 $aPsychometrics 606 $aStatistics for Social Sciences, Humanities, Law$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/S17040 606 $aBehavioral Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L13009 606 $aPsychological Methods/Evaluation$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20040 615 0$aStatistics. 615 0$aBehavioral sciences. 615 0$aPsychology?Methodology. 615 0$aPsychometrics. 615 14$aStatistics for Social Sciences, Humanities, Law. 615 24$aBehavioral Sciences. 615 24$aPsychological Methods/Evaluation. 676 $a610.727 700 $aCollins$b Linda M.$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0767874 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300122703321 996 $aOptimization of Behavioral, Biobehavioral, and Biomedical Interventions$91563706 997 $aUNINA
