Do Not Remove. Power. in Survey Research Applications of the General Linear Model

چکیده
In this paper we review neglected issues of simultaneous statistical inference and statistical power in survey research applications of the general linear model, and we find that classical hypothesis testing as it is currently applied, is inadequate for the purposes of social research. The intelligent use of statistical inference demands control over the overall level of Type I error and knowledge of the magnitude of effects one is likely to detect. We suggest techniques that can be used to routinely incGrporate considerations of simultaneous inference and power into the statistical analysis of survey data. Several examples of applications of these techniques are presented.

A new approach to rank the decision making units in presence of infeasibility in intuitionistic fuzzy environment
Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a linear programming based methodology to determine the relative performance efficiencies of homogeneous decision making units (DMUs). In real world applications, some input and output datas do not possess crisp/fuzzy essence but they possess intuitionistic fuzzy (IF) essence. So, in this study, we develop an IF BCC (IFBCC) and an IF super efficiency BCC (IFSE...
متن کاملBayesian Inference for Spatial Beta Generalized Linear Mixed Models
In some applications, the response variable assumes values in the unit interval. The standard linear regression model is not appropriate for modelling this type of data because the normality assumption is not met. Alternatively, the beta regression model has been introduced to analyze such observations. A beta distribution represents a flexible density family on (0, 1) interval that covers symm...
متن کاملSome properties of continuous linear operators in topological vector PN-spaces
The notion of a probabilistic metric space corresponds to thesituations when we do not know exactly the distance. Probabilistic Metric space was introduced by Karl Menger. Alsina, Schweizer and Sklar gave a general definition of probabilistic normed space based on the definition of Menger [1]. In this note we study the PN spaces which are topological vector spaces and the open mapping an...

In this paper, power distribution planning (PDP) considering distributed generators (DGs) is investigated as a dynamic multi-objective optimization problem. Moreover, Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) is applied to handle the uncertainty in electricity price and load demand. In the proposed model, investment and operation costs, losses and purchased power from the main grid are incorporated in the f...
متن کاملA REVIEW ON SEQUENCING APPROACHES FOR MIXED-MODEL JUST-IN-TIME PRODUCTION SYSTEM
Research interests have been focused on the concept of penalizing jobs both for being early and for being tardy because not only of modern competitive industrial challenges of providing a variety of products at a very low cost by smoothing productions but also of its increasing and exciting computer applications. Here, sequencing approaches of the mixed- model just-in-time production systems is...
