A Note on Marginal Deterrence
The theory of deterrence has been concerned primarily with situations in which individuals consider whether to commit a single harmful act. For instance, a person may be deciding whether to discharge a pollutant into a lake. In some contexts, however, a person may be contemplating which of several harmful acts to commitwhether to discharge a pollutant into a lake or instead to discharge it onto...
متن کاملAntitrust Enforcement and Marginal Deterrence
We study antitrust enforcement in which the fine must obey four legal principles: punishments should fit the crime, proportionality, bankruptcy considerations, and minimum fines. We integrate these legal principles into an infinitely-repeated oligopoly model. Bankruptcy considerations ensure abnormal cartel profits. We derive the optimal fine schedule that achieves maximal social welfare under ...
متن کاملA note on marginal likelihood for Gaussian models
For a vector y ∈ Rn and a model subspace X ⊂ Rn, the residual configuration statistic is what remains of y when translations in the model space and scalar multiplication are ignored. The configuration statistic for a linear Gaussian model has a distribution that depends only on variance-component ratios, or similar ratio parameters in the covariance function of a spatial model. The marginal lik...
متن کاملA Note On Marginal Linear Regression With Correlated Response Data
Correlated response data often arise in longitudinal and familial studies The marginal regression model and its associated generalized estimating equation GEE method are becoming more and more popular in handling such data Pepe and Anderson pointed out that there is an important yet implicit assumption behind the marginal model and GEE If the assumption is violated and a non diagonal working co...
متن کاملCopula, marginal distributions and model selection: a Bayesian note
Copula functions and marginal distributions are combined to produce multivariate distributions. We show advantages of estimating all parameters of these models using the Bayesian approach, which can be done with standard Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithms. Deviance-based model selection criteria are also discussed when applied to copula models since they are invariant under monotone increasing...
