The [Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation] selected five indicators for the SII [social inclusion index] dwelling satisfaction, neighbourhood satisfaction, satisfaction with feeling part of the community, sense of safety and economic hardship. A single-factor SII structure based on these five selected items indicated a good fit of the model to the data. In other words, the findings suggested that dwelling and neighbourhood satisfaction, feeling part of the community, sense of safety, and economic hardship are related in a way that represents a common underlying construct, although the extent to which this construct measures social inclusion warrants further research. 1, record 1, English, - good%20fit%20of%20the%20model

La [Société canadienne d'hypothèques et de logement] a sélectionné cinq indicateurs pour l'IISd'inclusion sociale : la satisfaction à l'égard du logement, la satisfaction à l'égard du quartier, la satisfaction à l'égard du sentiment d'appartenance à la communauté, le sentiment de sécurité et les difficultés économiques. Une structure d'IIS à un seul facteur fondée sur ces cinq éléments sélectionnés semble indiquer une bonne adéquation du modèle aux données. En d'autres termes, les résultats donnent à penser que la satisfaction à l'égard du logement et du quartier, le sentiment d'appartenance à la communauté, le sentiment de sécurité et le confort économique sont associés de telle sorte qu'ils représentent un concept commun sous-jacent, même si le degré auquel ce concept mesure l'inclusion sociale nécessite des recherches plus approfondies. 1, record 1, French, - bonne%20ad%C3%A9quation%20du%20mod%C3%A8le

Four simple conceptual daily rainfall-runoff models are applied to a 25-basin data set. The drainage basins are all from the UK, covering a range of sizes, topographies, soils and climates. The quality of the simulation of the observed response is classically quantified by a minimized objective function. However, in this instance, model performance is judged by a range of quantitative and qualitative measures of fit, applied to both the calibration and validation periods. These include efficiency, mean annual runoff, baseflow index, the synthetic monthly and daily flow regimes, and the flow duration curve. 1, record 5, English, - baseflow%20index

Critère d'évaluation de modèles conceptuels simples pluie-débit au pas de temps journalier. Résumé : Quatre modèles conceptuels simples pluie-débit au pas de temps journalier ont été appliqués à de séries de données de 25 bassins versants. Ces bassins versants, de taille, topographie, sol et climat variés, sont tous situés au Royaume Uni. La qualité de la simulation des observations est quantifiée en minimisant une fonction objective classique. Cependant, dans notre exemple, la performance d'un modèle est jugée en mesurant qualitativement et quantitativement l'ajustement, à la fois sur la période de calage et sur la période de validation. Ces mesures comprennent l'efficacité, l'écoulement moyen annuel, l'indice de débit de base, les régimes synthétiques des débits mensuels et annuel et la courbe débit-durée-fréquence. 1, record 5, French, - indice%20de%20d%C3%A9bit%20de%20base

The left hand is used inside the pot and the fingertips of as many fingers(not thumb) as you can get into the pot are pressed gently against the base of the wall. The right hand is used outside the pot, and the index finger is crooked so that the flat section between the first and second knuckles can be pressed down on the wheel-head. The side of the index finger then will naturally fit against the wall or side of the pot. Both hands can be drawn upwards together. 3, record 6, English, - lifting%20up
