Standardized Calculation and Interpretation of Basic Cow Herd Performance Measures
Commercial cow-calf producers commonly use the term “percent calf crop,” but what does it mean? Does percent calf crop represent the number of calves born relative to the number of cows bred, or perhaps it is the number of calves born relative to the number of cows exposed to a bull? Some might calculate percent calf crop as the number of calves weaned compared to the number of calves born, or ...
متن کاملInterpretation of hospital-specific outcome measures based on routine data.
Hospital-specific outcome measures based on routine data are useful for stimulating interest in quality of care and for suggesting avenues for more in-depth analyses. They might also identify serious, once-in-a-lifetime failures of health care. However, such analyses are not definitive. They are a way of screening large amounts of routine data and, like all screening tools, they can generate fa...
متن کاملAn Alternative Interpretation of Probability Measures in Statistical Mechanics
I offer an alternative interpretation of classical statistical mechanics and the role of probability in the theory. In my view the stochasticity of statistical mechanics is associated directly with the observables rather than microstates. This view requires taking seriously the idea that the physical state of a statistical mechanical system is a probability measure, thereby avoiding the unneces...
متن کاملAn Analysis of Performance Measures using Copulae
We have carried out a detailed comparison of the statistical properties and the relationships between a set of five performance measures using 14 UK based Investment Trusts over a sample period ranging from 1980 to 2001. Our results suggest very clearly that there is almost no difference between Jensen’s Alpha, the Treynor-Mazuy (TM) measure and the Positive Period Weighting(PPW) measure over o...
متن کاملPsychophysical Interpretation for Utility Measures
The paper explores utility measures by combining experiments with mathematical derivations in the psychophysics paradigm. The analysis on the ultimatum game experiment reveals evidences for the utility threshold and thus supports Bernoulli’s utility logarithmic law. Both experimental results and theoretical derivations show that the logarithmic law is suitable for the description of commodity c...
