Picking one ‘winner’ model for researching a certain phenomenon while discarding the rest implies a confidence that may misrepresent the evidence. Multimodel inference allows researchers to more accurately represent their uncertainty about which model is ‘best’. But multimodel inference,...

As mixture regression models increasingly receive attention from both theory and practice, the question of selecting the correct number of segments gains urgency. A misspecification can lead to an under- or oversegmentation, thus resulting in flawed management decisions on customer targeting or...

Der folgende Beitrag befasst sich mit dem Problem der Modellselektion im Finite Mixture Partial Least Squares (FIMIX-PLS)-Ansatz. Dieser Ansatz, welcher der Methodengruppe der Mischverteilungsmodelle zuzuordnen ist, ermöglicht eine simultane Schätzung der Modellparameter bei gleichzeitiger...

Since the objective of economic policy is to change target variables in the DGP, when economic policy analysis uses an econometric model, it is important that the model delivers reliable inferences about policy responses in the DGP. This requires that the model be congruent and encompassing, and...
