Abstract:
One way of grabbing students' interest in probability is to present the rules of a game of chance, ask them whether the game is fair, and have them use their intuition to give a ballpark estimate of the probability of winning. The issue of fairness can be counted on to arouse the interest of many students, and fairness of games is a topic that has found its way into textbooks (see, e.g., Chapin et al. [1994]). Having students commit to an answer helps to arouse and sustain their interest because they want to see whether their intuition is correct. Students also learn that giving an impulsive,

Abstract:
In genetics education, symbols are used for alleles to visualize them and to explain probabilities of progeny and inheritance paradigms. In this study, we identified symbol systems used in genetics textbooks and the justifications provided for changes in the symbol systems. Moreover, we wanted to understand how students justify the use of different symbol systems when solving genetics problems. We analyzed eight textbooks from three different countries worldwide. We then presented a genetics problem to eight 9th-grade students and probed their justifications for the use of different symbol sys

Abstract:
The importance of visual representations in education and mathematics is well known. Probabilities are a domain in mathematics that uses many visual representations since their theory consists of a variety of diagrams and graphs. In the past, many studies have shown that the use of various representations in teaching probabilities can greatly improve learning. Of course, the use of a visual representation or a visual tool when teaching or solving an exercise can have a variety of roles. The present work is based on the ancillary and informative role of the image. The following research examine

Abstract:
Textbooks are considered essential, providing a hierarchical organisation of knowledge, forging the intellectual scaffolding of students and teachers alike, and playing a crucial role in compulsory education. In this paper we discuss, by means of a content analysis, the systematic errors detected in the presentation of questions related to statistics and probability in Spanish secondary school textbooks on mathematics. We found some errors appear systematically in the texts, and the most common are: faulty differentiation between quantitative and qualitative variables, between discrete and con

Abstract:
Standard textbooks in core Statistics and Management Science classes present various examples to introduce basic probability concepts to undergraduate business students. These include tossing of a coin, throwing a die, and examples of that nature. While these are good examples to introduce basic probability, we use improvised versions of Russian Roulette and found these to be very effective in communicating important concepts in probability to our business school students. We use these modified versions of Russian Roulette to communicate concepts such as dependent event, joint probabilities an

Abstract:
In this paper, we studied the methods of computing sample quantiles for the case of discrete probability distributions. There are two main methods which are introduced in statistics textbooks. We compared these two methods by simulation from practical and educational necessity. We considered some cases of Poisson, binomial, geometric, negative binomial, and discrete uniform distributions by setting up the parameters, and for each distribution we performed 10,000 times of simulation of drawing random samples of size 20 and 50. At each time of simulation, we computed the difference between the p

Abstract:
This paper develops a dynamic model of consumer search that, despite placing very little structure on the dynamic problem faced by consumers, allows us to exploit intertemporal variation in price distributions to estimate the distribution from which consumer search costs are initially drawn. We show that static approaches to estimating this distribution may suffer from dynamic sample selection bias. This can happen if consumers are forward‐looking and delay their purchases in a way that systematically depends on their individual search costs. We consider identification of the population search

Abstract:
Suicidal behaviour or suicidality can be conceptualized as a continuum ranging from suicidal ideation and communications to suicide attempts and completed suicide. A developmental process which leads to suicidal ideation, suicidal communication, self-destructive behaviour, in some cases even to suicide, and its consequences to the survivors is often referred to as a suicidal process. There is no single unanimously accepted definition of suicide, although in most proposed definitions it is considered as a fatal act of self-injury (self-harm) undertaken with more or less conscious self-destructi

Abstract When Oppenheimer was drawn to Los Alamos, his student David Bohm stepped in to co-present his Berkeley lectures on quantum mechanics. The effort led to a textbook, which Bohm published in 1951. Although inclined towards Copenhagen teachings, he remained enough of a Marxist to explore the possibility that the radical probabilities of the theory might be removed using hidden variables. The book included a detailed analysis of the EPR experiment, cast in a much more accessible form. A subsequent encounter with Einstein at Princeton led him to become interested in whether a deterministic

This physics textbook thus begins with a discussion of algebraic properties of Gaussian measures, and Gaussian expectation values for a finite number of variables. The important role of Gaussian measures is not unrelated to the central limit theorem of probabilities, although the interesting physics is generally hidden in essential deviations from Gaussian distributions.
