Statistical Inference After Model Selection∗
Conventional statistical inference requires that a model of how the data were generated be known before the data are analyzed. Yet in criminology, and in the social sciences more broadly, a variety of model selection procedures are routinely undertaken followed by statistical tests and confidence intervals computed for a “final” model. In this paper, we examine such practices and show how they ...
متن کاملProcrustean statistical inference of deformations
A two step method has been devised for the statistical inference of deformation changes. In the first step of this method and based on Procrustes analysis of deformation tensors, the significance of the change in a time or space series of deformation tensors is statistically analyzed. In the second step significant change(s) in deformations are localized. In other words, they are assigned to ce...
متن کاملNatural selection. VII. History and interpretation of kin selection theory.
Kin selection theory is a kind of causal analysis. The initial form of kin selection ascribed cause to costs, benefits and genetic relatedness. The theory then slowly developed a deeper and more sophisticated approach to partitioning the causes of social evolution. Controversy followed because causal analysis inevitably attracts opposing views. It is always possible to separate total effects in...
متن کاملVisual Statistical Inference for Regression Parameters
Statistical graphics play a crucial role in exploratory data analysis, model checking and diagnosis. Until recently there were no formal visual methods in place for determining statistical significance of findings. This changed, when Buja et al. [2009] conceptually introduced two protocols for formal tests of visual findings. In this paper we take this a step further by comparing the lineup pro...
