Die übliche Schätzfunktion zur Bestimmung der relativen Lohndifferenz mittels Dummyvariable in einer log-linearen Regressionsfunktion ist inkonsistent, falls gruppenspezifische Heteroskedastie vorliegt. Die Richtung und Größenordnung der Verzerrung wird abgeleitet. Ein Fallbeispiel zur...

In practice, call center service levels are reported over periods of finite length that are usually no longer than 24 hours. In such small periods the service level has a large variability. It is therefore not sufficient to base staffing decisions only on the expected service level. In this...

Consider a one-way layout where random samples of data are available from k populations, where the distributions of the data from each population are considered to be completely unknown. This paper discusses a methodology for investigating whether it can be concluded that the k unknown...

Streambed vertical hydraulic conductivity (K <Subscript> v </Subscript>) plays an important role in understanding and quantifying the stream–aquifer interactions. While several researchers have discussed the spatial variability of streambed horizontal hydraulic conductivity or K <Subscript> v </Subscript> at one or several close-located...</subscript></subscript>
