This review introduces logistic regression, which is a method for modelling the dependence of a binary response variable on one or more explanatory variables. Continuous and categorical explanatory variables are considered.

D some misconceptions, consumer rationality is a property of the researcher rather than the consumer. Consumers become more rational as we are better able to predict their behavior or other important outcomes influenced by their behavior. Perfect rationality results when we achieve accurate predictions. Consequently, at least for many Marketing Science articles, consumers are becoming more rati...

A systematic study of the across scale coupling phenomenology in EM scattering problems is addressed using the theory of multiresolution decomposition and orthogonal wavelets. By projecting an integral equation formulation of the scattering problem onto a set of subspaces that constitutes a multiresolution decomposition of L 2 (R), one can derive two coupled formulations. The rst governs the ma...

Hourly streamflow timing, as revealed by diurnal fluctuations in discharge in snowfed watersheds, provides a new tool for understanding transport times and processes in river basins. Travel time delays at different basin scales were measured in nested subbasins (6 to 775 km) of the Tuolumne River in Yosemite National Park throughout the spring 2002 and 2003 melt seasons. The travel time increas...

This paper develops a firm-dynamics model with heterogenous firms and endogenous currency debt composition to jointly study financing and investment decisions in developing economies. In our model, foreign currency borrowing arises from a trade-off between aggregate deviations from the risk-free uncovered interest rate parity and firms’ growth potential. Crucially, there is crosssectional heter...

This study examines experimentally, in situ, the influence of four scales of heterogeneity (0, 1, 10, 100 mm) and the hierarchical combination of those scales of heterogeneity (0 + 1 + 10, 0 + 1 + 100, 0 + 10 + 100, 0 + 1 + 10 + 100 mm) on the early establishment of a sessile marine littoral epibenthic community. The study was carried out in St. Andrews, New Brunswick (Canada) from July to Octo...

The LLS stock market model is a model of heterogeneous quasi-rational investors operating in a complex environment about which they have incomplete information. We review the main features of this model and several of its extensions. We study the effects of investor heterogeneity and show that predation, competition, or symbiosis may occur between different investor populations. The dynamics of...
