The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

A Bootstrap Test of Stochastic Equality of Two Populations (2005, background): “Parasite distributions are based on empirical distributions of avian lice (for the sources of data see Rózsa, Reiczigel, and Majoros 2000).”
Management of disease in wild mammals (2009, positive): “This left-biased frequency distribution is best described by the negative binomial distribution, and specific approaches have been developed for the calculation of prevalence estimates (Rózsa et al. 2000; Rózsa 2005).”
Histological techniques for marine bivalve molluscs: update (2006, background): “…of hosts with parasite or pathology Weighted prevalence or mean abundance (Bush et al., 1997; Rózsa et al., 2000) is the multiple of prevalence and infection intensity, and is a measure of the relative severity of infection within the…”
Measures of sociality: two different views of group size (2008, methodology): “Skewed frequency distributions are complex patterns that cannot be adequately characterized by a single descriptive statistic (see e.g. Rózsa et al. 2000).”
