Abstract:
Exoplanets that transit nearby M dwarfs allow us to measure the sizes, masses, and atmospheric properties of distant worlds. Between 2008 and 2013, we searched for such planets with the MEarth Project, a photometric survey of the closest and smallest main-sequence stars. This thesis uses the first planet discovered with MEarth, the warm 2.7 Earth radius exoplanet GJ1214b, to explore the possibilities that planets transiting M dwarfs provide.<br>Astronomy

Abstract:
Randomized controlled trials are experiments for the evaluation of a new treatment option, currently representing the "gold standard" in health care assessment. Clinical trials fulfill a double role of evidence production and of regulatory oversight in sanctioning new drugs' approval into the drug market. For this reason trials are large and tightly regulated enterprises that have to comply with ethical requirements while at the same time maintaining high epistemic standards, in a balance that becomes increasingly difficult to strike as research questions become more and more sophisticated.

Abstract:
Nonparametric procedures use weak assumptions such as continuity of the distribution so that they are applicable to a large class F of underlying distributions. Statistics that are distribution-free over F may be constructed to be estimators of location. Such estimators are derived from rank tests called R-estimators. They are robust estimators. The concept of robust estimation is based on a neighborhood of parametric models called "gross error models". The M-estimator, which is a maximum likelihood type estimator, arose from such investigations using the normal distribution. A third big class

Abstract:
Due to a phenomenon known as selection bias, the estimator of the average treatmen teffect (ATE) of a treatment variable on some outcome may be biased. Selection bias, caused by exclusion of possible units from the studied data, is a major obstacle to valid statistical and causal inferences. It is hard to detect in experimental or observational studies and is introduced when conditioning a sample on a common collider of the treatment and response variables. A certain type of selection bias known as M-Bias occurs when conditioning on a pretreatment variable that is part of a particular variable

Abstract:
The works presented in this thesis are the result of the experiments conducted in the Cognitive and Experimental Economics Laboratory (CEEL) and in the Consumer Neuroscience Laboratory (NCLab) of the Economics and Management Department at the University of Trento. The aim of this research is to study the influence of cognitive impulsivity on commercial problem-solving and consumer decision-making. We focused on the attentional aspects related to the decision-making process as analyzed by the eye movements. The first section will present the main topic of the thesis, the key tool used to conduc

Abstract:
Patterns of visual objects, streams of sounds, and spatiotemporal events are just a few examples of the structures present in a variety of sensory inputs. Amid such variety, numerous regularities can be found. In order to handle the sensory processing, individuals of each species have to be able to rapidly track these regularities. Statistical learning is one of the principal mechanisms that enable to track patterns from the flow of sensory information, by detecting coherent relations between elements (e.g., A predicts B). Once relevant structures are detected, learners are sometimes required

Abstract:
Lo scopo generale della presente tesi è quello di arricchire la letteratura sul benessere finanziario dei giovani adulti adottando metodologie di ricerca e tecniche statistiche mai applicate in questo filone di ricerca. Nello specifico, nel primo capitolo è stata utilizzata la scoping methodology, ovvero una metodologia di sintesi della letteratura, con l’obiettivo di identificare la definizione, le componenti, i predittori e gli outcome del benessere finanziario dei giovani.
