Examples of Formula Grants in the following topics:
-
- An example of an agency that oversees the administration of federal assistance is the Department of Housing and Urban Development, which uses grants to provide public affordable housing.
- Programs administer assistance by "granting" or "awarding" a portion of the assistance to recipients.
- These are called federal grants or awards.
- Given the enormous size of federal assistance provided, the Federal government has designed different types of grants, each with its own unique way of awarding and operating.
- These include project grants, formula grants, and earmark grants.
-
- Research funding comes from grants from private groups or governments, and researchers must be careful to avoid conflicts of interest.
- Research funding is often applied for by scientists and approved by a granting agency to financially support research.
- These grants require a lengthy process as the granting agency can inquire about the researcher's background, the facilities used, the equipment needed, the time involved, and the overall potential of the scientific outcome.
- The process of grant writing and grant proposing is a somewhat delicate process for both the granter and the grantee.
- However, most universities have research administration offices to facilitate the interaction between the researcher and the granting agency.
-
- Besides attesting to one's abilities, credentials may also grant the holder access to restricted areas, information, or activities.
- For example, security clearances and press passes are credentials that grant access to otherwise restricted areas.
- A medical license is a credential that grants the ability to practice an otherwise restricted activity.
- For example, security clearances and press passes are credentials that grant access to otherwise restricted areas.
- A medical license is a credential that grants the ability to practice an otherwise restricted activity.

- Using the classical formula for the standard error of a mean (s / sqr(N)) we obtain a sampling variability estimate of .0528.
- The classical formula gives an estimate of the standard error (.0528) that is much smaller than than that created by the bootstrap method (.1201).
- This is because the standard formula is based on the notion that all observations (i.e. all relations) are independent.
- In general, the standard inferential formulas for computing expected sampling variability (i.e. standard errors) give unrealistically small values for network data.
-
- Most of the standard formulas for calculating estimated standard errors, computing test statistics, and assessing the probability of null hypotheses that we learned in basic statistics don't work with network data (and, if used, can give us "false positive" answers more often than "false negative").
- The standard formulas for computing standard errors and inferential tests on attributes generally assume independent observations.
-
- A schoolteacher is an example of someone who experiences status inconsistency; he is granted respect by most members of society, but he do not earn a top income.
-
- Canada, the United States, and Mexico grant each other special privileges by not imposing tariffs.
-
- Harold Garfinkel demonstrated this situation through so-called experiments in trust, or breaching experiments, wherein students would interrupt ordinary conversations because they refused to take for granted that they knew what the other person was saying.
-
- Instead of applying the normal formulas (i.e. those built into statistical software packages and discussed in most basic statistics texts), we need to use other methods to get more correct estimates of the reliability and stability of estimates (i.e. standard errors).

- Chile grants both men and women the right to vote and had one of the first female presidents in the world.
- Women were granted the right to vote in 1946.
