Usage of Monte Carlo simulation for pricing requires a well defined and accurate market implied distribution of risk factors. Overlay, on top of these simulated risk factors, one can also generate conditional prices based on the set of underlying risk factors at future time horizons. The ability...

This paper questions the conventional wisdom that publication bias must result from the biased preferences of researchers. When readers only compare the number of positive and negative results of papers to make their decisions, even unbiased researchers will omit noisy null results and inflate...

A meta-analysis is a tool for aggregating estimates of a similar "effect" across many studies. Publication bias is the phenomenon where literature is sample selected in favor of studies having statistically significant results and/or having estimates that satisfy pre-conceived expectations. A...

theory model that specifies the correct set of m relevant exogenous variables, x{t}, within the larger set of m k candidate … the estimator distribution of the theory parameters. This strategy returns the theory-parameter estimates when the theory … is correct, yet protects against the theory being under-specified because some w{t} are relevant …

In statistics, samples are drawn from a population in a data-generating process (DGP). Standard errors measure the uncertainty in estimates of population parameters. In science, evidence is generated to test hypotheses in an evidence-generating process (EGP). We claim that EGP variation across...

Replication crisis and debates about p-values have raised doubts about what we can statistically infer from research findings, both in experimental and observational studies. With a view to the present debate on inferential errors, this paper systematizes and discusses experimental designs with...
