Causal inference by using invariant prediction: identification and confidence intervals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
What is the difference between a prediction that is made with a causal model and that with a non‐causal model? Suppose that we intervene on the predictor variables or change the whole environment.

Generalized Confidence Intervals for Zero-Inflated Pareto Distribution

open access: yesMathematics, 2021
This paper considers interval estimations for the mean of Pareto distribution with excess zeros. Three approaches for interval estimation are proposed based on fiducial generalized pivotal quantities (FGPQs), respectively.

A review of effect sizes and their confidence intervals, Part I: The Cohen's d family

open access: yesThe Quantitative Methods for Psychology, 2018
The results of the interval estimation method popularized by Steiger and Fouladi (1997), herein called the pivoting method1, were displayed erroneously in Appendix C of our recent paper on effect sizes and corresponding confidence intervals (Goulet ...
