A statistically valid alternative to the TDT.
OBJECTIVE To present an alternative linkage test to the transmission/disequilibrium test (TDT) which is conservative under the null hypothesis and generally more powerful under alternatives. METHODS The exact distribution of the TDT is examined under both the null hypothesis and relevant alternatives. The TDT is rewritten in an alternate form based on the contributions from each of the three ...
متن کاملComparison of sevoflurane with halothane: statistically valid?

The authors mentioned the use of the Student's t test or Fisher's exact test for intergroup comparisons of anaesthesia data. They also mentioned the use of analysis of v...
متن کاملDiagonalization Is Also Practically Useful: a Geometric Idea
Cantor’s diagonalization idea: reminder. Most mathematicians are familiar with diagonalization from Cantor’s proof that the set of all real numbers is not countable. Indeed, if it was countable, i.e., if we could enumerate all (decimal) real numbers d1d2 . . . di.f1 . . . fj . . . into a sequence d (k) 1 d (k) 2 . . . d (k) i .f (k) 1 . . . f (k) j . . ., k = 1, 2, . . ., then we would be able ...

results seven concepts emerged after exploratory factor analysis of the 48 items. the content validity ratio (cvr) of the questionnaire constructs were 0.55 to 0.76, and content validity index (cvi) structure was 0.86 to 0.95. cronbach's alpha coefficient for the entire questionnaire was 0.78, and correlation coefficient of the test-retest reliability for the constructs was from 0.73 to 0.89. c...
متن کاملIn Search of a Statistically Valid Volatility Risk Factor (revised)
Theory predicts that aggregate volatility ought to be a priced risk factor. In an influential study with more than 1000 citations on Google Scholar, Ang, Hodrick, Xing, and Zhang (2006) propose an ex post factor, FV IX, intended as a proxy for aggregate volatility risk. Their test validating FV IX relies on an OLS regression of portfolio excess returns on FV IX and other independent variables o...
