Mattis, Daniel C. | Improved Landau-Ginzburg equation near surfaces of solids | We study the order parameter near the surface for an Ising model. Applications to the lattice gas, alloy problem, and ferromagnetism are noted. Away from Tc our equations differ from the Landau-Ginzburg results due to an additional nonlinear, term which can substantially affect the order parameter... | Landau-Ginzburg equation; Boundary conditions | 1980-12 |

Hartmann, Donald P. | Interrupted time-series analysis and its application to behavioral data | This paper uses a question-and-answer format to present the technical aspects of interrupted time-series analysis (ITSA). Topics include the potential relevance of ITSA to behavioral researchers, serial dependency, time-series models, tests of significance, and sources of ITSA information. | Data Analysis; Methodology; Serial Dependency; Interrupted Time-Series Analysis | 1980-12 |
