If the number of assessors in a difference test is not large enough to ensure the desired power of the testing procedure, then it is often advised to use assessors repeatedly. That is, each assessor performs the testing not just once but several times. There is a discussion going on, how results...

This paper studies inference for the average treatment effect in randomized controlled trials where treatment status is determined according to a "matched pairs" design. By a "matched pairs" design, we mean that units are sampled i.i.d. from the population of interest, paired according to...

Economic data are often generated by stochastic processes that take place in continuous time, though observations may occur only at discrete times. For example, electricity and gas consumption take place in continuous time. Data generated by a continuous time stochastic process are called...
