Influence of ground control point reliability and distribution on UAV photogrammetric 3D mapping accuracy by Haonan Zhong, Yansong Duan, Pengjie Tao, Zuxun Zhang

“…It was also found that: when GCP reliability is high (RMSE within 0.1 m; density more than 10 GCP/[Formula: see text]), GCP number should prioritize over distribution, ie. accuracy improving as the number of GCPs increases; when GCP reliability is moderated (RMSE within 5 m; density around 5–10 GCP/[Formula: see text]), each of the uniform and distributed-edge distributions leads in different conditions; when GCP reliability is low (RMSE beyond 5 m; density less than 5 GCP/[Formula: see text]) it is favorable to use a distributed-edge and center distribution. …”

Stress, perceived competence and guilt as predictors of depression in parents with chronic pain by Irene J. Muñoz-Peña, José L. González-Gutiérrez, Laura Yunta-Rua, Juan C. Pacho-Hernández, Almudena López-López

“…Pain can hinder the ability to deal with demands related to parenthood, which can negatively affect their psychological well-being because of unmet caregiving expectations.MethodsConsidering the limited amount of research regarding the mental health of parents with CP, the study’s main aim was to test a predictive model based on previous scientific literature, using structural equation analysis, in which parental competence and parental guilt partially mediate the relationship between parental stress and depression. To examine the moderating role of CP, the model was tested on a group of parents with CP and a control group of parents without CP. …”
