Abstract:

In this paper we investigate the impact of persistent (nonstationary or near nonstationary) cycles on the asymptotic and finite-sample properties of standard unit root tests. Results are presented for the augmented Dickey–Fuller (ADF) normalized bias and t-ratio-based tests (Dickey and Fuller, 1979, Journal of the American Statistical Association 745, 427–431; Said and Dickey, 1984; Biometrika 71, 599–607). the variance ratio unit root test of Breitung (2002, Journal of Econometrics 108, 343–363), and the M class of unit-root tests introduced by Stock (1999, in Engle and White (eds.), A Festsc

Abstract:

Local independence is a central assumption of commonly used item response theory models. Violations of this assumption are usually tested using test statistics based on item pairs. This study presents two quasi-exact tests based on the [Formula: see text] statistic for testing the hypothesis of local independence in the Rasch model. The proposed tests do not require the estimation of item parameters and can also be applied to small data sets. The authors evaluate the tests with three simulation studies. Their results indicate that the quasi-exact tests hold their alpha level under the Rasch mo

Abstract:

Conditional moment tests check to see whether or not population moment equalities, implied by the null model specification, hold approximately in the sample. Asymptotically valid conditional statistics can easily be calculated from the output of a so-called outer product of the gradient (OPG) artificial regression. However, several studies have now found that this OPG variant exhibits extremely poor finite sample behavior and that significant improvements can be made by employing the efficient variant. In the light of such evidence, this paper develops new artificial regressions that can be us

Abstract:

This paper proposes Pearson-type statistics based on implied probabilities to detect structural change. The class of generalized empirical likelihood estimators (see Smith 1997, The Economic Journal107, 503–519) assigns a set of implied probabilities to each observation such that moment conditions are satisfied. The proposed test statistics for structural change are based on the information content in these implied probabilities. We consider cases of structural change with unknown breakpoint that can occur in the parameters of interest or in the overidentifying restrictions used to estimate th

The alternative corresponds to an increase in persistence and includes in particular an abrupt or gradual change from I (d1) to I (d2), −.5 < d1 < d2.

This paper develops the limit law for the least absolute deviation estimator of the threshold parameter in linear regression. In this respect, we extend the literature of threshold models.

This result is useful because in the case of heavy-tailed errors there is an efficiency loss resulting from the use of least squares.

Abstract:

The results of a survey exploring counselor attitudes toward the fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders ( DSM-5) are presented. The survey revealed that counselors have mixed attitudes toward the DSM. They view DSM positively and see it as both beneficial to their profession and important in determining treatment. They also believe that DSM-5 revisions reflect the best science available. Counselors worry that the DSM prioritizes diagnosis over treatment, have concerns about proposed DSM-5 revisions, and support developing alternatives to the DSM.

Abstract:

Research frequently uses quantitative approach to explore undergraduates’ statistics anxiety conditions. However, few studies of adults’ statistics anxiety use qualitative method or focus solely on graduate students. Moreover, even less studies focus on comparing adults’ anxiety levels before and after the introductory statistics course. This line of study is important to pursue since the introductory statistics course should play the very important roles of both preparing students’ the foundation knowledge of higher level statistics course, and inspiring students’ interests for higher level c

Abstract:

Statistics instructors and others interested in the teaching of statistics will find many print and nonprint resources on this topic. The print literature on the teaching of statistics is largely anecdotal and comprises mainly recommendations for instruction based on the experiences and intuitions of individual instructors. Less than 30% of the print literature reports the results of empirical studies, but these cover a broad range of topics, including the use of computers in statistics instruction, teaching materials, and teaching strategies. A large portion of the nonempirical literature is

Abstract:

This meta-analysis of gender differences examines statistics achievement in postsecondary-level psychology, education, and business courses. Thirteen articles examining 18 samples were obtained and coded for the analysis. The average effect size was –0.08 standard deviation units favoring females; however, the results were heterogeneous. Although no model accounted for all between-studies variation, gender differences could best be predicted from the percentage of undergraduate students in the sample, the department offering the course, and the use of course grade or points for the outcome mea

Abstract:

As a practicing statistician, we frequently are asked questions like: What is the role of statistics in our daily life? Why do we need statistics? What would the world be without statistics? Here are some of my thoughts on these and related matters. Statistics is an ancient tool which has been useful in solving problems of interest and understanding the world we live in. Until recently, say 60 years ago, in Latin America there was the wrong perception that statistics was an exoteric field that did not relate well to the needs of our society. Also, it was incorrectly thought that statistics was

Abstract:

We show that the cumulated sum of squares statistic has a standard Brownian bridge–type asymptotic distribution in nonlinear regression models with (possibly) nonstationary regressors. This contrasts with cumulated sum statistics which have been previously studied and whose asymptotic distribution has been shown to depend on the functional form and the stochastic properties, such as persistence and stationarity, of the regressors. A recursive version of the test is also considered. A local power analysis is provided, and through simulations, we show that the test has good size and power proper

Abstract:

Under normality, we obtain higher-order approximations to the distributions of the periodogram and related statistics. Our approach is based on the theorem which decomposes the periodogram into the sum of two independent random variables. It is seen that this decomposition enables us to study fairly closely the higher-order properties of not only the periodogram, but also periodogram-based statistics such as the estimators of the spectrum and prediction error variance. Some of the approximation results are graphically presented together with the exact results based on simulations.

Focusing on nonprofit program effectiveness, we test how nonprofit campaigns providing information on three effectiveness indicators—outputs, outcomes, and impacts (as part of the logic framework)—influence donation and lending behavior. An online survey experiment ( N = 271) reveals that donors value outcome and impact indicators more than output information, without any differences between the two. Moreover, the three ind

Many geographers have argued for the need to incorporate change over time into their analyses (see, for example, Haggett 1965; Hägerstrand 1970; Thrift 1977;Marsh et al. 1988); however, changes to administrative boundaries often mean that demographic statistics collected at two different dates cannot be directly compared. This has made it very difficult to study longitudinal change without resorting to undesirable levels of aggregation, typically to county level in Britain or state level in the United States.

Notwithstanding their fundamental nature, however, rating summary statistics also are relevant to electronic commerce in general, and to e-tourism in particular.

We investigate the effects of the normality assumption for disturbances on the test statistics based on their asymptotic expansions.

After modifying their critical regions to the same significance level, the power function of Basmann's statistic is larger than that of the likelihood ratio test when the variance of distu
