Just because the current consensus of coupled GCM model studies and other process studies strongly suggest an anthropogenic cause for the current (1989 - centered) climate trend, can not and should not bully the objective science of defining observed climate trends, into hypothesizing and projecting the 1989 - centered climate forward in time even one year.

Why isn't a TCR type of simulation, but instead using actual history and 200 year projected GHG levels in the atmosphere, that would produce results similar to a TCR simulation (at least for the AGW temp increase that would occur when the CO2 level is doubled) and would result in much less uncertainty than ECS (as assessed by climate model dispersions), a more appropriate metric for a 300 year forecast, since it takes the climate more than 1000 years to equilibrate to the hypothesized ECS value, and we have only uncertain methods to check the computed ECS value with actual physical data?

The «pause», should it continue, will discredit every model that did not predict it, including every model that included a strong functional relationship with CO2 without strong residual («natural») processes of hypothesized influences (the gravitational thingies of Scafetta, for example), or processes of unknown causation.

There is modest evidence that FCMH models are associated with improved quality of health care in pediatrics, including children with a medical home having fewer unmet health care needs and increased likelihood of receiving preventive care.13 — 17 Evidence exists for potential cost savings associated with the growth of the medical home model.18 It is hypothesized that an expanded medical home model will further decrease health disparities.19 Ongoing multisite FCMH demonstration projects aim to provide additional evidence regarding the effectiveness of the FCMH model of care.20

In this respect, they distinguish, among others, absolute fit indices which compare the hypothesized model with no model at all, comparative or incremental indices of fit which use a baseline model for assessing model fit, and parsimony fit indices which penalize for model complexity (Byrne, 2016).

Despite lack of a sound theory for outlining the relationships between character strengths, stress, and psychological symptoms, potential relationships can be hypothesized through the «personality - stress - health» model devised by Kinder (2005).

To put the effect sizes for the hypothesized associations on wave 6 reckless driving into perspective, we re-ran the final model using logistic regressions (for the connections between the wave 6 indicators and the wave 6 latent variables) to obtain odds ratios (OR) for the indirect effects of wave 1 predictors on the individual wave 6 reckless driving items.

We also hypothesized that a model with 2 correlated factors (one for reckless driving and one for inattentive driving) would fit better than a 1 factor model.

We hypothesized that, controlling for sociodemographics, negative contextual factors would be associated with negative behavioral outcomes and inversely related to positive outcomes; contextual promotive factors would be associated with positive outcomes and inversely related to negative outcomes; and when entered simultaneously in the model, both family, school, and community contexts would be significantly associated with the outcomes.

As mentioned before, Suls et al. (1998) found a positive relationship between neuroticism and the general inertia parameter \ (\ phi \) of the AR model, but now we hypothesized an underlying pattern where more neurotic individuals have weaker affect regulation only or especially for increased negative affect.
