Regression Models with Ordinal Variables*
Most discussions of ordinal variables in the sociological literature debate the suitability of linear regression and structural equation methods when some variables are ordinal. Largely ignored in these discussions are methods for ordinal variables that are natural extensions of probit and logit models for dichotomous variables. If ordinal variables are discrete realizations of unmeasured conti...
متن کاملThe long-term survivors.
Recent research indicates that approximately 60% of children diagnosed with cancer in Britain are cured and as a result, about 1 in a 1000 of the general population will soon be survivors of childhood cancer. Unfortunately some elements of the therapies which are responsible for this remarkable success are associated with serious complications, sometimes decades after their administration. Ther...
متن کاملWavelets for Nonparametric Stochastic Regression with Pairwise Negative Quadrant Dependent Random Variables
We propose a wavelet based stochastic regression function estimator for the estimation of the regression function for a sequence of pairwise negative quadrant dependent random variables with a common one-dimensional probability density function. Some asymptotic properties of the proposed estimator are investigated. It is found that the estimators have similar properties to their counterparts st...
متن کاملA Class of Integral Operators Generated by Random Variables
Let X be a random variable in Rp distributed symmetrically about zero with cumulants of order 4, 8, 12, . . . equal to zero. This class of random variables includes the multivariate normal. Consider the linear integral operator KX defined by KX g(x) = E [g(x+X)] = ∫ g(x + y) dP (X ≤ y) acting on the space of functions g : Cp → Cq with Taylor series expansions about zero. By Fredholm theory, non...
متن کاملRegression Models with Data-based Indicator Variables
OLS estimation of an impulse-indicator coefficient is inconsistent, but its variance can be consistently estimated. Although the ratio of the inconsistent estimator to its standard error has a tdistribution, that test is inconsistent: one solution is to form an index of indicators. We provide Monte Carlo evidence that including a plethora of indicators need not distort model selection, permitti...
