Charitable bequests are a major source of income for charities but surprisingly little is known about them. The aim of this paper is to propose a multi-stage framework for analysing the bequest decision and to examine the evidence for Great Britain provided by new data on estates. The novelty of...

We describe an algorithm for the construction of optimum experimental designs for the parameters in a regression model when the errors have a correlation structure. Our example is drawn from chemical kinetics, so that the model is nonlinear. Our algorithm has been implemented to be used when the...
