A Simple Wide Range Approximation of Symmetric Binomial Distribution

open access: yesEntropy
The paper gives a wide range, uniform, local approximation of symmetric binomial distribution. The result clearly shows how one has to modify the classical de Moivre–Laplace normal approximation in order to give an estimate at the tail as well as to ...

How cold is too cold? A theoretical analysis of the optimal trigger for index insurance for frost damage to crops

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Crop insurance is undoubtedly an extremely valuable element in protecting agricultural businesses, but in many cases standard indemnity‐based products have had very low uptake due to high transaction costs elevating premiums to unaffordable levels.

High‐elevation endemic plants predicted to lose habitat from changing climate in Washington State

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise High‐elevation plants face unique challenges from potential climate change impacts that will likely require upslope migration into increasingly smaller suitable habitat. This situation is particularly acute for endemic species that by definition occupy small geographic ranges.

Giving and receiving help in three contexts as predictors of alcohol outcomes in a longitudinal study of sober living house residents

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Although peer support is central to the social model approach emphasized in sober living houses (SLHs), no longitudinal studies have examined helping among SLH residents. This longitudinal study examined benefits of helping in three contexts among SLH residents. Data were from 205 participants entering 28 SLHs across 2021–2023. Interviews were

Examining pathways by which socioeconomic instability in adolescence influence sexual health during emerging adulthood in an agricultural setting in California

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the longitudinal impact of socioeconomic instability on teen pregnancy and sexually transmitted infection (STI) diagnosis among adolescents and young adults (AYA) living in an agricultural region and examines pathways including supportive family and social structures, decision making autonomy in romantic relationships ...

Binomial approximation to the Poisson binomial distribution

open access: yes
Upper and lower bounds are given for the total variation distance between the distribution of a sum S of n independent, non-identically distributed 0-1 random variables and the binomial distribution (n, p) having the same expectation as S. The proof uses

Do not log-transform count data

open access: yes, 2010
1. Ecological count data (e.g., number of individuals or species) are often log-transformed to satisfy parametric test assumptions. 2. Apart from the fact that generalized linear models are better suited in dealing with count data, a log ...

Approximations of the binomial distribution. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1963
Thesis (M.A.)--Boston UniversityThis thesis provides a discussion of various approximations to the cumulative binomial distribution. We begin our analysis with the discussion of the simple normal approximation, based on the DeMoivre-Laplace Limit ...
