Adequate Quantification of Project Cost Risks: Introduction of Non-Linear Probabilistic (Monte Carlo) Technique
Raydugin, Yuri - In: International Journal of Risk and Contingency … 7 (2018) 4, pp. 1-20
Literature on project management contains an abundancy of references to abnormally high project cost overruns as well as bitter complaints that modern risk quantification methods could not accurately predict project cost outcomes in many cases. This article provides a) an explanation of...

Structuring Tchebycheff-Type Inequalities – A Systematical Approach / Systematisierung tschebyscheffartiger Ungleichungen – Ein Überblick
Strotmann, Harald - In: Jahrbücher für Nationalökonomie und Statistik 219 (1999) 3-4, pp. 468-493
Summary Though there is a huge variety of different Tchebycheff-type inequalities in the literature a systematised structuring is missing. The few existing surveys remain rather enumerative. Therefore in this paper a structuring of Tchebycheff-type inequalities is suggested which is based on...

Economics of Voting: Theories and Evidence
Struthers, John; Young, Alistair - In: Journal of Economic Studies 16 (1989) 5
In seeking to extend rational choice theory from “market” to “political” behaviour, economists have encountered a paradox: namely, that the act of voting itself appears to be inconsistent with the assumption of rationality. This is true not only when self‐interest is assumed, but also...
