Some recent studies on the Permanent Incomes Hypothesis (PIH) seem to view permanent income as some sort of a moving average of measured inc0me.l It is our contention that this approach is essentially misleading. There are at least three reasons for this contention. First, there appears to be some misunderstanding about the meaning of "horizon" on the part of some authors using the moving avera...

This paper investigates distributive justice using a fourfold experimental design: The ignorance and the risk scenarios are combined with the self–concern and the umpire modes. We study behavioral switches between self–concern and umpire mode and investigate the goodness of ten standards of behavior. In the ignorance scenario, subjects became, on average, less inequality–averse as umpires. A wi...

Mössbauer spectroscopy (MS) is not a routine method for the evaluation of the concentration of iron in samples. Due to its great advantage of being a method which does not destroy the sample, it is used when one is dealing with hardly available material, like extraterrestrial samples (e.g., meteorites, lunar soil) or with biological samples, which after the Mössbauer spectroscopy measurements m...

The rotation forest ensemble method using a genetic fuzzy rule-based system as a base learning algorithm was developed in Matlab environment. The method was applied to the real-world regression problem of predicting the prices of residential premises based on historical data of sales/purchase transactions. The computationally intensive experiments were conducted aimed to compare the accuracy of...
