Simple and Honest Confidence Intervals in Nonparametric Regression [PDF]

open access: yesQuantitative Economics, 2016
We consider the problem of constructing honest confidence intervals (CIs) for a scalar parameter of interest, such as the regression discontinuity parameter, in nonparametric regression based on kernel or local polynomial estimators.

The Shortest Clopper–Pearson Randomized Confidence Interval for Binomial Probability

open access: yesRevstat Statistical Journal, 2017
Zieli´nski (2010) showed the existence of the shortest Clopper–Pearson confidence interval for binomial probability. The method of obtaining such an interval was presented as well. Unfortunately, the confidence interval obtained has one disadvantage: it

An extension of within-subject confidence intervals to models with crossed random effects [PDF]

open access: yesTutorials in Quantitative Methods for Psychology, 2017
A common problem in displaying within-subject data is that of how to show confidence intervals that accurately reflect the pattern of significant differences between conditions. The Cousineau-Morey method \parencite {c05,m08} is a widely used solution to

A calculator for confidence intervals [PDF]

open access: yesComputer Physics Communications, 2002
A calculator program has been written to give confidence intervals on branching ratios for rare decay modes (or similar quantities) calculated from the number of events observed, the acceptance factor, the background estimate and the associated errors.

Calculating confidence intervals for impact numbers

open access: yesBMC Medical Research Methodology, 2006
Background Standard effect measures such as risk difference and attributable risk are frequently used in epidemiological studies and public health research to describe the effect of exposures.

The unpredictably eruptive dynamics of spruce budworm populations in eastern Canada

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
We examine historical population data for spruce budworm from several locations through the period 1930–1997, and use density‐dependent recruitment curves to test whether the pattern of population growth over time is more consistent with Royama's (1984; Ecological Monographs 54:429–462) linear R(t) model of harmonic oscillation at Green River New ...

Confidence Intervals: From tests of statistical significance to confidence intervals, range hypotheses and substantial effects [PDF]

open access: yesTutorials in Quantitative Methods for Psychology, 2006
For the last 50 years of research in quantitative social sciences, the empirical evaluation of scientific hypotheses has been based on the rejection or not of the null hypothesis.

Calculating unreported confidence intervals for paired data

open access: yesBMC Medical Research Methodology, 2011
Background Confidence intervals (or associated standard errors) facilitate assessment of the practical importance of the findings of a health study, and their incorporation into a meta-analysis.

A Method for Confidence Intervals of High Quantiles

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
The high quantile estimation of heavy tailed distributions has many important applications. There are theoretical difficulties in studying heavy tailed distributions since they often have infinite moments.
