Investment horizon and beta coefficients

Journal of Business Research, 1990
Abstract Three important issues are examined concerning the pricing of securities and the investment horizon, namely, the length of the investment horizon, the sensitivity of the beta coefficient to the assumed horizon, and the correlation between the beta and the horizon estimates. The analysis is based on a constant elasticity of substitution (CES)-

Coefficient Beta and Hierarchical Item Clustering

Organizational Research Methods, 2006
Summated scales are widely used in management research to measure constructs such as job satisfaction and organizational commitment. This article suggests that Revelle’s (1979) coefficient beta, implemented in Revelle’s (1978) ICLUST item-clustering procedure, should be used in conjunction with Cronbach’s coefficient alpha measure of internal ...

Use and Misuse of Beta Coefficients

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2017
The purpose of this paper is to reassess the variance of beta coefficients and financial models which employ their use. In addition, we will identify the extent and limitations to which the application of beta and the corresponding models are appropriate.

More on Beta as a Random Coefficient

The Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis, 1982
In their article, “Beta as a Random Coefficient,” Fabozzi and Francis [1] present evidence which suggests that beta is a random coefficient for a “significant minority” of NYSE stocks. They obtained their evidence first, by characterizing the market model as a random coefficient model of the type described by Theil and Mennes [7], and second, by ...

On the Use of Beta Coefficients in Meta-Analysis.

Journal of Applied Psychology, 2005
This research reports an investigation of the use of standardized regression (beta) coefficients in meta-analyses that use correlation coefficients as the effect-size metric. The investigation consisted of analyzing more than 1,700 corresponding beta coefficients and correlation coefficients harvested from published studies.

Calculation of Mass Attenuation Coefficients of Beta Particles

Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 1998
Using the semi-empirical equations for the transmission coefficient of monoenergetic electrons, the mass attenuation coefficient of beta particles has been calculated. Beta spectra for 'allowed' and 'first forbidden' transitions are considered. The calculated mass attenuation coefficients for {beta}- emitters determined in the present study agree ...

Hall Coefficients of Beta-Phase Alloys

Journal of the Physical Society of Japan, 1969
The Hall coefficients ( R H ) and the electrical resistivities (ρ) of three beta-phase alloys CuZn, AgCd and AgZn, which undergo the order-disorder transformation, were measured from room temperature to about 615°C. Experiments showed: 1. R H of the ordered (β') phase connects continuously with that of the disordered (β) phase, at the transition ...

Further Evidence on the Stationarity of Beta Coefficients

The Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis, 1978
Diversification and capital market theory in conjunction with investors' desire to quantify risk have caused the beta coefficient to receive considerable attention in recent finance literature. Results of empirical investigations of the stationarity of beta over time have been reported by Altman, Jacquillat, and Levasseur [1], Baesel [2], Blume [3 ...

Coefficients Alpha, Beta, Omega, and the glb: Comments on Sijtsma

Psychometrika, 2009
There are three fundamental problems in Sijtsma (Psychometrika, 2008): (1) contrary to the name, the glb is not the greatest lower bound of reliability but rather is systematically less than ωt (McDonald, Test theory: A unified treatment, Erlbaum, Hillsdale, 1999), (2) we agree with Sijtsma that when considering how well a test measures one concept, α ...
