Bias In Monte Carlo Simulations Due To Pseudo-Random Number Generator Initial Seed Selection, Jack C. Hill, Shlomo S. Sawilowsky
Bias In Monte Carlo Simulations Due To Pseudo-Random Number Generator Initial Seed Selection, Jack C. Hill, Shlomo S. Sawilowsky
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Pseudo-random number generators can bias Monte Carlo simulations of the standard normal probability distribution function with initial seeds selection. Five generator designs were initial-seeded with values from 10000HEX to 1FFFFHEX, estimates of the mean were calculated for each seed, the distribution of mean estimates was determined for each generator and simulation histories were graphed for selected seeds.
One Is Not Enough: The Need For Multiple Respondents In Survey Research Of Organizations, Joseph L. Balloun, Hilton Barrett, Art Weinstein
One Is Not Enough: The Need For Multiple Respondents In Survey Research Of Organizations, Joseph L. Balloun, Hilton Barrett, Art Weinstein
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
The need for multiple respondents per organization in organizational survey research is supported. Leadership teams’ ratings of their implementations of market orientation are examined, along with learning orientation, entrepreneurial management, and organizational flexibility. Sixty diverse organizations, including not-for-profit organizations in education and healthcare as well as manufacturing and service businesses, were included. The major finding was the large rating variance within the leadership teams of each organization. The results are enlightening and have definite implications for improved design of survey research on organizations.
Maximum Likelihood Solution For The Linear Structural Relationship With Three Parameters Known, Androulla Michaeloudis
Maximum Likelihood Solution For The Linear Structural Relationship With Three Parameters Known, Androulla Michaeloudis
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
A maximum likelihood solution is obtained for the simple linear structural relation model where the underlying incidental distribution and one error variance are assumed known. Expressions for the asymptotic standard errors of the maximum likelihood estimates are obtained and these are verified using a simulation study.
Is Next Twelve Months Period Tumor Recurrence Free Under Restricted Rate Due To Medication? A Probabilistic Warning, Ramalingam Shanmugam
Is Next Twelve Months Period Tumor Recurrence Free Under Restricted Rate Due To Medication? A Probabilistic Warning, Ramalingam Shanmugam
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
A methodology is formulated to analyze tumor recurrence data when its incidence rate is restricted due to medication. Analytic results are derived to make a probabilistic early warning of tumor recurrence free period of length τ; that is, the chance for a safe period of lengthτ is estimated. The captured data are length biased. Expressions are developed to extract and relate to counterparts of the non-length biased data. Three data sets are considered as illustrations: (1) patients who are given a placebo, (2) patients who are given the medicine pyridoxine and (3) patients who are given the medicine thiotepa.
The Likelihood Of Choosing The Borda-Winner With Partial Preference Rankings Of The Electorate, Ömer Eğecioğlu, Ayça Ebru Giritligil
The Likelihood Of Choosing The Borda-Winner With Partial Preference Rankings Of The Electorate, Ömer Eğecioğlu, Ayça Ebru Giritligil
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Given that n voters report only the first r (1 ≤ r < m) ranks of their linear preference rankings over m alternatives, the likelihood of implementing Borda outcome is investigated. The information contained in the first r ranks is aggregated through a Borda-like method, namely the r-Borda rule. Monte-Carlo simulations are run to detect changes in the likelihood of r-Borda winner(s) to coincide with the original Borda winner(s) as a function of m, n and r. The voters’ preferences are generated through the Impartial Anonymous and Neutral Culture Model, where both the names of the …
