ISO 9001 is a certifiable international standard issued by ISO (International Organisation for Standardisation). Several benefits related to employees, companies, and the business environment are correlated to this standard. The Bayesian statistic can be used to fit regression models to data, presenting some advantages. The objective of this study is to verify, through Bayesian regression models, the relationship between the numbers of ISO 9001 certificates issued in Brazilian states and the macroeconomic factors. Furthermore, this study also aims to compare the relationships in the states with the relationships in the region of each state. The estimated model parameters indicate a significant relationship between some macroeconomic factors and the number of ISO 9001 certificates for the Brazilian state. Hence, considering the macroeconomic factors as indicators of specifics of the state economy, the local relationship between these aspects and the business environment, indicated in part by the number of ISO 9001 certificates, can be better understood. The most economically important states influence substantially the relationships of their regions. The main novelty of this paper is the analysis of the relationship between the Brazilian macroeconomic factors and the number of ISO 9001 certificates issued at state and regional levels.

Justice-involved youth (JIY) have high rates of behavioral health disorders, but few can access, much less complete, treatment in the community. Behavioral health treatment completion among JIY is poorly understood, even within treatment studies. Measurement, reporting, and rates of treatment completion vary across studies. This systematic review and meta-analysis synthesizes the literature on rates of treatment completion among JIY enrolled in research studies and identifies potential moderators. After systematically searching 6 electronic databases, data from 13 studies of 20 individual treatment groups were abstracted and coded. A meta-analysis examined individual prevalence estimates of treatment completion in research studies as well as moderator analyses. Prevalence effect sizes revealed high rates of treatment completion (pr = 82.6). However, analysis suggests a high likelihood that publication bias affected the results. Treatment groups that utilized family- or group-based treatment (pr = 87.8) were associated with higher rates of treatment completion compared to treatment groups utilizing individual treatment (pr = 61.1). Findings suggest that it is possible to achieve high rates of treatment completion for JIY, particularly within the context of family- and group-based interventions. However, these findings are limited by concerns about reporting of treatment completion and publication bias., (© The Author(s) 2022.)
