The host always reveals a goat and always offers a switch. If and only if he has a choice, he chooses the leftmost goat with probability p (which may depend on the player's initial choice) and the rightmost door with probability q = 1 − p. [38] [34] If the host opens the rightmost ( P=1/3 + q/3 ) door, switching wins with probability 1/(1+q).
The fecal egg count reduction test was suggested in the World Association for the Advancement of Veterinary Parasitology guideline for estimating the reduction in fecal egg counts and its corresponding confidence interval. [1] The results of this test can be used to determine the anthelmintic resistance status of the animals.
