Differential effects and generic biases in observational studies
S There are two treatments, each of which may be applied or withheld, yielding a 2×2 factorial arrangement with three degrees of freedom between groups. The differential effect of the two treatments is the effect of applying one treatment in lieu of the other. In randomised experiments, the differential effect is of no more or less interest than other treatment contrasts. Differential eff...
متن کاملPotential Biases in Feedback Diagnosis from Observational Data: A Simple Model Demonstration
Feedbacks are widely considered to be the largest source of uncertainty in determining the sensitivity of the climate system to increasing anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentrations, yet the ability to diagnose them from observations has remained controversial. Here a simple model is used to demonstrate that any nonfeedback source of top-of-atmosphere radiative flux variations can cause temper...
متن کاملMultistability Arising from Synaptic Dynamics
The strength of a synapse imparted by a onto its postsynaptic target can change as a function of the presynaptic neuron activity of the presynaptic neuron. This change is referred to as short-term synaptic plasticity. Networks of neurons connected with plastic synapses have the potential ability to display multiple stable solutions either at different parameter values or for the same set of par...
متن کاملOptimistic biases in observational learning of value
Action-outcome contingencies can be learnt either by active trial-and-error, or vicariously, by observing the outcomes of actions performed by others. The extant literature is ambiguous as to which of these modes of learning is more effective, as controlled comparisons of operant and observational learning are rare. Here, we contrasted human operant and observational value learning, assessing i...
