Distributional Orderings: An Approach with Seven Flavours
نویسندگان
چکیده
We examine individuals’ distributional orderings in a number of contexts. This is done by using a questionnaire-experiment that is presented to respondents in any one of seven “flavours” or interpretations of the basic distributional problem. The flavours include inequality, risk, social welfare and justice. The issue of personal involvement in the distributional comparison is explicitly addressed. JEL Classification: C13, D63

Introduction:Mapping distribution of endemic diseases with their relations to geographical factors has become important for public health experts, especially in the study of vector-born protozoan diseases with emphasis on spatial or geographical epidemiology. This study was carried out to provide distribution maps of the geographical pathology vectors of Malaria in Iran. Methods: A systemat...
متن کاملHow Does Monetary Policy Affect Household Income Distribution?
Over the last decades the research on monetary policy has largely concentrated on the impact of monetary authorities’ decisions on inflation and the fine-tuning of the macroeconomic, so that distributional effects of monetary policy which are non-trivial has been ignored. A view that has become increasingly popular since the financial crisis 2008 is that expansionary monetary policy can exacerb...
متن کاملMinimal Dependency Length in Realization Ranking
Comprehension and corpus studies have found that the tendency to minimize dependency length has a strong influence on constituent ordering choices. In this paper, we investigate dependency length minimization in the context of discriminative realization ranking, focusing on its potential to eliminate egregious ordering errors as well as better match the distributional characteristics of sentenc...
متن کاملDistributional models of verb meaning: syntactic versus lexical contexts
Over the last decade or so, distributional methods have become the mainstay of semantic modelling in Computational Linguistics. As such, they have also been applied the automatic modelling of verb meaning. However, more than with other lexical categories, the research into verb semantics has taken its inspiration from the idea that a verb's meaning is strongly linked to its syntactic behaviour ...
متن کاملProportional odds frailty model and stochastic comparisons
In this paper, we present some distributional properties of the survival and frailty distribution involved in the proportional odds (PO) frailty model. Stochastic orderings are studied for this proportional odds frailtymodel. It is showed that negative dependence arises in the PO frailty model as opposed to the proportional hazard frailty model.
