Computer-Assisted Probability Sampling and Statistical Inference in the Field
In the past, designing probability samples for biological field studies has been limited by the difficulty of locating random points in the field. The ability to receive precise GPS signals in many field settings has largely removed this constraint. We have been investigating statistical and computer-based technologies that enable field data collectors to use more sophisticated probability samp...
متن کاملA sampling approach to biases in conditional probability judgments: beyond base rate neglect and statistical format.
Conditional probability judgments of rare events are often inflated. Early accounts assumed a general deficit in using statistical base rates. More recent approaches predict improvement when problems are presented in frequency format or refer to natural categories. The present theory focuses on sampling processes. Experiment 1 showed that a seeming advantage of frequency over probability format...
متن کاملIntroduction to Probability Theory and Sampling Distributions
tatistical inference allows one to draw conclusions about the characteristics of a population on the basis of data collected from a sample of subjects from that population. Almost all the statistical inferences typically seen in the medical literature are based on probability models that connect summary statistics calculated using the observed data to estimates of parameter values in the popula...
متن کاملStatistical contributions to proteomic research.
Proteomic profiling has the potential to impact the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of various diseases. A number of different proteomic technologies are available that allow us to look at many proteins at once, and all of them yield complex data that raise significant quantitative challenges. Inadequate attention to these quantitative issues can prevent these studies from achieving their d...
