The purpose of this paper is twofold. One of the aims is to give a view of P. C. Fishburn's non-transitive expected utility
through geometric linear algebra. The other is to give an application of these ideas to a social choice problem. Actually,
the problem under consideration arises from the theory of dynamical systems of structures in a society as studied in [All]
and [Om1]. A variation of this model as presented in [Om2] leads to the problem of how macro structures of a society form
coalitions. Their possible irrational behaviour may be treated using non-transitive expected utility.

Summary In this paper we discusse the stationary sequence of random variables which are formed from an independent identically distributed
sequence, according to the moving-average model of ordern. Some properties of the process are considered. The joint bivariate exponential distribution is given, as well as the distribution
of the sum. 相似文献

This article aims to assess the extent to which women's labor force participation reflects culturally or situationally induced
family strategies above and beyond the well-known effects of opportunities and constraints associated with education and the
life cycle. We focus particularly on women immigrants from the former Yugoslavia in Australia, and explore the family strategies
by comparing the Yugoslav women systematically to immigrant women from other parts of the Mediterranean world and to immigrant
women from other parts of the Slavic world. To this end, we use data from the one percent public use sample of individual
records of the 1981 Australian Census. We find that the labor force particiaation patterns of immigrant women from the former
Yugoslavia are more shaped by education and less shaped by the life course than is true of other groups, although the life
course matters for all of them. Indeed, in the impact of education on labor force they closely resemble the Eastern Europeans
across most of the range of education. But in the impact of life cycle stage on participation they more closely resemble the
Greeks and the Italians. This emphasizes how important it is that statistical agencies release data at the greatest possible
level of detail: A country may belong in one group for some purposes, but in a different group for other purposes. We assess
a number of explanations for birthplace differences in participation patterns, and find most wanting. We suggest that they
may reflect culturally conditioned intergenerational wealth flows and patterns of time investiment in children and the elderly.

Early studies and theory suggest sexual minorities are drawn towards the relative independence of self-employment to avoid discrimination in paid employment. However, recent evidence is mixed, suggesting that a higher propensity for self-employment (relative to heterosexual people) is found only among lesbian women relative to heterosexual women. This study overcomes the data limitations of prior research by using data pooled from 2007–2017 cycles of the Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS) and multivariate logistic regression to provide new evidence on LGB self-employment. The results show that self-employment is particularly high for bisexual people, especially bisexual women—but not for gay men or lesbian women. Overall, this study examines the enduring but nuanced relationship between self-employment and sexual orientation and discusses countervailing factors related to socio-economic resources, gender, and family structure. 相似文献
