This paper weakens the size and moment conditions needed for typical blockbootstrap methods (i.e. the moving blocks, circular blocks, and stationary boot-straps) to be valid for the sample mean of Near-Epoch-Dependent functions ofmixing processes; they are consistent under the weakest conditions...

Consider the problem of testing s hypotheses simultaneously. In order to deal with themultiplicity problem, the classical approach is to restrict attention to procedures that controlthe familywise error rate (FWE). Typically, it is known how to construct tests of the individualhypotheses, and...

It is often desired to rank different populations according to the value of some feature of each population. For example, it may be desired to rank neighborhoods according to some measure of intergenerational mobility or countries according to some measure of academic achievement. These rankings...
