Extending reliability to intensive longitudinal data with the Kalman filter
British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.Abstract Reliability is central to how researchers approach measurement in standard, group‐based analyses of single‐time‐point data, yet this critical aspect is often overlooked in the analysis of repeated observations. Since its inception, reliability has been a between‐person concept, but we redevelop this notion for within‐person designs by ...

On Schopenhauer's Debt to Spinoza1
European Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.Abstract Schopenhauer offers ‘nature is not divine but demonic’ as a direct rebuttal of Spinoza's pantheism, his identification of ‘nature’ with ‘God’. And so, one would think, he ought to have been immune to the ‘Spinozism’ that became, as Heine called it, ‘the unofficial religion’ of the age.

Precautionary Saving against Correlation under Risk and Ambiguitya
Journal of Money, Credit and Banking, EarlyView.Abstract This paper considers precautionary saving against the correlation between two risky attributes (wealth and health) and investigates how the correlation affects optimal savings under multivariate preferences.

Observer Dreams: Criteria and Frequency
Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Numerous theories of dreaming consider embodied self‐representation and participation in dream events as key features. However, past studies suggest that the dream self is absent or an uninvolved observer in over 10% of adult REM dreams. Further, these dreams can be similarly elaborate and of comparable narrative structure to participatory ...

Can we repudiate ontology altogether?
Noûs, EarlyView.Abstract Ontological nihilists repudiate ontology altogether, maintaining that ontological structure is an unnecessary addition to our theorizing. Recent defenses of the view involve a sophisticated combination of highly expressive but ontologically innocent languages combined with a metaphysics of features—non‐objectual, complete but modifiable states

Infinite ethics and the limits of impartiality
Noûs, EarlyView.Abstract Beneficence—the part of morality concerned with promoting people's well‐being—is widely thought to be both agent‐neutral and impartial: it prescribes a common aim to all, and does not favor some individuals over others. This paper explores a problem for agent‐neutral, impartial beneficence from the perspective of “individualistic ethics” in ...
