Relative or Absolute Poverty Lines: a New Approach
When measuring poverty over time analysts must choose the value of the income elasticity of the poverty line, which essentially determines whether an absolute or relative poverty line is being used. The choice of this parameter is ultimately a value judgement, but this paper suggests an approach which has some empirical basis. Borrowing from the life-style and deprivation approach to poverty, v...
متن کاملSwitching between visuomotor mappings: learning absolute mappings or relative shifts.
Adaptation to specific visuomotor mappings becomes faster when switching back and forth between them. What is learned when repeatedly switching between the visuomotor mappings: the absolute mappings or the relative shift between the mappings? To test this, we trained participants in a rapid pointing task using a unique color cue as context for each mapping between pointing location and visual f...
متن کاملPositional information in short-term memory: relative or absolute?
Evidence suggests that short-term memory for serial order includes information about the positions of items in a sequence. This information is necessary to explain why substitution errors between sequences tend to maintain their position within a sequence. Previous demonstrations of such errors, however, have always used sequences of equal length. With sequences of different length, both transp...
متن کاملAbsolute or relative effects? Arm‐based synthesis of trial data
We congratulate Hwanhee Hong and colleagues on another fascinating paper (Hong et al., 2015a) arguing the case for arm-based models for meta-analysis. The standard approach to meta-analysis is the contrast-based model where the information that is pooled over trials is the information of the trial-specific relative treatment effect, expressed for example as a log relative risk, log odds ratio, ...
متن کاملAbsolute Identification 1 Running Head : ABSOLUTE IDENTIFICATION IS RELATIVE Absolute Identification Is Relative : A reply to
N. Stewart, G. D. A. Brown, and N. Chater (2005) presented a relative judgment model (RJM) of absolute identification, in which the current stimulus is judged relative to the preceding stimulus. S. Brown, A. A. J. Marley, and Y. Lacouture (2007) found that the RJM does not predict their finding of increased accuracy after large stimulus jumps, except at the expense of other effects. In fact, th...
