The weighted likelihood can be used to make inference about one population when data from similar populations are available. The author shows heuristically that the weighted likelihood can be seen as a special case of the entropy maximization principle. This leads him to propose the minimum averaged mean squared error (MAMSE) weights. He describes an algorithm for calculating these weights and shows its convergence using the Kuhn‐Tucker conditions. He explores the performance and properties of the weighted likelihood based on MAMSE weights through simulations. 相似文献

Using interview and observation data from a group of consensual, heterosexual adults interested in sexual spanking, I describe members' sexual stories and stigma neutralization techniques. Sexual stories are situated within broader cultural contexts that help individuals construct meaning and identities. I describe group members' stories about their initial interest in sexualized spankings. Focusing on a specific event at one party, I show how these stories help to create scene-specific stigma neutralization techniques. Participants strive to differentiate themselves from sadomasochistic activities and to create normative behavioral expectations within their scenes. I conclude that all of this can ultimately be viewed as part of the complex sexual adaptations that people make. 相似文献

The concept of materiality pervades the audit process. Typically, materiality is determined as a percentage of the total book value of an account or as a percentage of net income. We propose an economically based model that determines that materiality level which minimizes the economic consequences of the audit decision. The proposed model is examined for materiality sensitivity to prior information concerning the quality of the accounting process and to costs incurred as a consequence of the audit decision. 相似文献

An example is given of a uniformly most accurate unbiased confidence belt which yields absurd confidence statements with 100% occurrence. In several known examples, as well as in the 100%-occurrence counterexample, an optimal confidence belt provides absurd statements because it is inclusion-inconsistent with either a null or an all-inclusive belt or both. It is concluded that confidence-theory optimality criteria alone are inadequate for practice, and that a consistency criterion is required. An approach based upon inclusion consistency of belts [C(x) C C C(x), for some x, implies γ ≤ γ for confidence coefficients] is suggested for exact interval estimation in continuous parametric models. Belt inclusion consistency, the existence of a proper-pivotal vector [a pivotal vector T(X, θ) such that the effective range of T(x,.) is independent of x], and the existence of a confidence distribution are proven mutually equivalent. This consistent approach being restrictive, it is shown, using Neyman's anomalous 1954 example, how to determine whether any given parametric function can be estimated consistently and exactly or whether a consistent nonexact solution must be attempted. 相似文献

The conceptualizations of power, traditionally associated with control, have been nuanced in the past decades by influential authors such as Michel Foucault, Hannah Arendt and Pierre Bourdieu. These authors offer a perspective on power focused on the agency of individuals, with an emphasis on the way the dynamics and relations of power operate. Relying on these conceptual frameworks, we argue that the theory of social representations is of particular relevance to an analysis of the construction of power relations, whether it be to criticize the effects of domination or examine those of emancipation. The results of our research on the social representations of depression illustrate the latter's role in the construction, continuity and transformation of the power dynamics at play in the area of access to healthcare services by people who have experienced a depressive episode. 相似文献

In Stein's 1959 example, for any sample with n sufficiently large, there is a confidence set embedded simultaneously within two regular confidence belts—one with coverage frequency smaller than an arbitrary positive ϵ, the other with coverage frequency larger than 1 — ϵ. Thus, Stein's example may be seen as an extreme case of mutually conflicting confidence statements, illustrating a possibility anticipated and denounced by Fisher. 相似文献

While sexual victimization continues to be a problem on college campuses, recent attention has been drawn to understanding gender differences in victimization rates and consequences. To date, these studies remain relatively few in number. The current study surveyed 651 male and female undergraduate students about unwanted sexual experiences during 1 academic year. Comparison of men and women revealed expected differences in incidence rates, with women reporting higher rates of unwanted contact. Within the subsample of reported victims, however, there was gender similarity in terms of the context of unwanted sexual experiences. Analyses also revealed the negative consequences of these experiences for both men and women and low rates of disclosure regardless of gender. Across the full sample of students surveyed, there were interesting gender differences in knowledge of campus support services, with women more likely to have attended a prevention program and to have indicated greater knowledge of rape crisis services. 相似文献

This theoretical paper explores the role of social representations in the construction of social reality. Even though this question has been the subject of many debates, the actual processes and mechanisms through which social representations contribute to the construction of social reality have rarely been explored. Citing key works on the topic, the paper explores the role of the genesis of social representations in this process. Each stage of the objectification of social representations (selective construction, structuring schematization, and naturalization) is examined in detail. A more in‐depth analysis of the naturalization process is provided by dividing it into four phases: (1) recognition; (2) elimination of contradictions; (3) instrumental use; and (4) validation through experience. These phases are illustrated using the example of the construction of the social object of drugs in our contemporary society. The present examination of the naturalization process in relation to drugs reveals the mechanisms through which the reality of drugs as a social problem has been constructed and reproduced in our society. 相似文献
