The project is detailed in the contract as a seven step process — with Kogan's company, GSR, generating an initial seed sample (though it does not specify how large this is here) using «online panels»; analyzing this seed training
data using its own «psychometric inventories» to try to determine personality categories; the next step is Kogan's personality quiz app being deployed on Facebook to gather the full dataset from respondents and also to scrape a subset
of data from their Facebook friends (here it notes: «upon consent
of the respondent, the GS Technology scrapes and retains the respondent's Facebook profile and a quantity
of data on that respondent's Facebook friends»); step 4 involves the psychometric
data from the seed sample, plus the Facebook profile
data and friend
data all being run through proprietary
modeling algorithms — which the contract specifies are
based on using Facebook likes to predict personality scores, with the stated aim
of predicting the «psychological, dispositional and / or attitudinal facets
of each Facebook record»; this then generates a series

Individual growth curve
models were developed for multilevel analysis and specifically designed for exploring longitudinal
data on individual changes over time.23 Using this approach, we applied the MIXED procedure in SAS (SAS Institute) to account for the random effects

model for our individual growth curves, we compared a series
of MIXED
models by evaluating the difference in deviance between nested
models.23 Both fixed quadratic and cubic MIXED
models fit our
data well, but we selected the fixed quadratic MIXED
model because the addition
of a cubic time term was not statistically significant
based on a log - likelihood ratio test.

Although not directly comparable, our findings are in broad agreement with those from routine
data in Scotland that have indicated a positive association between Baby Friendly accreditation, but not certification, and breastfeeding at 1 week
of age.17 Our findings reinforce those
of Coutinho and colleagues who reported that high exclusive breastfeeding rates achieved in Brazilian hospitals implementing staff training with the course content
of the Baby Friendly Hospital Initiative were short - lived and not sustained at home unless implemented in combination with post-natal home visits.35 Similarly in Italy, training
of staff with an adapted version
of the Baby Friendly course content resulted in high breastfeeding rates at discharge, with a rapid decrease in the days after leaving hospital.36 In contrast, a cluster randomized trial in Belarus (PROBIT) found an association between an intervention
modelled on the Baby Friendly Initiative with an increased duration
of breastfeeding37 an association also reported from an observational study in Germany.38 Mothers in Belarus stay in hospital post-partum for 6 — 7 days, and in Germany for 5 days, with post-natal support likely to be particularly important in countries where mothers stay in the hospital for a shorter time, with early discharge likely to limit the influence
of a hospital -

based on volume
data, such as the number

models or the employment
of pre-defined ontological dictionaries), and finally what we call supervised and aggregated sentiment analysis (SASA), that is, techniques that exploit the human codification in their process and focus on the estimation
