Innovating in the Creative and Knowledge Industries: Not an Open or Closed Case

Moore, Gale; Chan, Leslie - 2008

The proliferation and circulation of digital information goods,or digital content in the age of the global Internet, is seenby many as fostering creativity and stimulating innovationin ways not possible in the industrial era. For the traditionaldistributors of content—the media and...

Causal Inference with Two-Stage Logistic Regression - Accuracy, Precision, and Application

Cai, Bing - 2010

2SPS and 2SRI for logistic binary outcomes have not been thoroughly studied. We study the bias and variance properties … trial. We first present closed form expressions of asymptotic bias for the causal odds ratio from both 2SPS and 2SRI … approaches. Our closed form bias results show that the 2SPS logistic regression generates asymptotically biased estimates of this …

The Impacts of Attribute Level Framing and Changing Cost Levels on Choice Experiments Value Estimates

Kragt, Marit Ellen; Bennett, Jeffrey W. - 2010

Choice Experiments (CE) are increasingly used to estimate the values of environmental goods andservices. CE questionnaires represent the environmental good under valuation by varying levels ofnon-market attributes. Inclusion of a cost attribute enables the estimation of monetary values...

Choke price bias in choice experiments

Morkbak, Morten Raun; Christensen, Tove; Gyrd-Hansen, Dorte - 2010

This paper reports on the results from a split sample choice experiment, where the effect of changing the maximum level of the cost attribute is investigated. The hypothesis was that changing the maximum price level would either give rise to an income effect or have no effect on consumers'...

Die monetäre Bewertung der Walderholung mittels der contingent-valuation-method

Klein, Christian - 2001

Die Ertragskrise der Forstwirtschaft wirkt indirekt auf das Erholungsangebot des Waldes. Erholungsleistungen, die früher problemlos aus erwirtschafteten Überschüssen bereitgestellt werden konnten, werden in jüngerer Zeit mehr und mehr hinterfragt: Es ist daher naheliegend und von Interesse,...

Adaptive Inference for Multi-Stage Survey Data

Al-Zou'bi, L. M.; Clark, Robert Graham; Steel, D. G. - 2009

Two-stage sampling usually leads to higher variances for estimators of means and regression coefficients, because of intra-cluster homogeneity. One way of allowing for clustering in fitting a linear regression model is to use a linear mixed model with two levels. If the estimated intra-cluster...

Explosive Behavior In The 1990S Nasdaq: When Did Exuberance Escalate Asset Values?

Phillips, PCB; Wu, YR; Yu, J - 2011

A recursive test procedure is suggested that provides a mechanism for testing explosive behavior, date stamping the origination and collapse of economic exuberance, and providing valid confidence intervals for explosive growth rates. The method involves the recursive implementation of a...
