Foundations for conditional probability

open access: yes
The main result presented in this article is that probability can fundamentally be characterized as a subset of conditional expectation induced by a plausible preorder on random quantities.

Conditional Corruption [PDF]

open access: yes
We argue that the decision to bribe bureaucrats depends on the frequency of corruption within a society. We provide a behavioral model to explain this conduct: engaging in corruption results in a disutility of guilt.

Exact methods for comparison of estimation strategies in survey sampling.

open access: yes, 2010
PhDMany strategies in survey sampling depend on large sample approximation formulae for design-based inference on finite population parameters, which are not valid for small samples. We develop an approach using matrix algebra to tackle many problems

Pesticide MRLs as Trade Barriers: Evidence From Vietnam's Coffee and Rice Exporters

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As tariffs have declined globally through bilateral and regional trade agreements, food safety standards have emerged as significant determinants of agricultural trade flows. This study examines the impact of maximum residue limits (MRLs) for five pesticides—Azoxystrobin, Chlorpyrifos, Chlorantraniliprole, Clothianidin, and Cyhalothrin—on ...

Popper’s Laws of the Excess of the Probability of the Conditional over the Conditional Probability

open access: yes, 1992
Karl Popper discovered in 1938 that the unconditional probability of a conditional of the form ‘If A, then B’ normally exceeds the conditional probability of B given A, provided that ‘If A, then B’ is taken to mean the same as ‘Not (A and not B)’.
