Estimation of Daily Smoking Prevalence for Disaggregated Statistical Areas in Australia

open access: yesAustralian &New Zealand Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Motivated by the need to estimate prevalence at multiple disaggregated level hierarchies, rather than only one, this study extends widely used area‐level models in Bayesian and frequentist framework. We propose adding additional unstructured random effects at higher level disaggregated domains to the traditional models. Using our extension, we

The degree of cooperativism in Europe: Towards an evaluation model for cooperative banking

open access: yesAnnals of Public and Cooperative Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Democracy, social commitment and proximity are fundamental values of cooperative‐based financial institutions. The degree of cooperativism of an entity (or, by extension, of a territorial area or country) can be associated with the intensity with which the entity promotes the inherent values of cooperatives.

Joint analysis of dispersed count‐time data using a bivariate latent factor model

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract In this study, we explore parameter estimation for a joint count‐time data model with a two‐factor latent trait structure, representing accuracy and speed. Each count‐time variable pair corresponds to a specific item on a measurement instrument, where each item consists of a fixed number of tasks.

A Bayes factor framework for unified parameter estimation and hypothesis testing

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Bayes factor, the data‐based updating factor of the prior to posterior odds of two hypotheses, is a natural measure of statistical evidence for one hypothesis over the other. We show how Bayes factors can also be used for parameter estimation.

Temporally‐indexed multi‐species density impact functions: Quantifying timing and impact of invasive predators on seabird breeding success

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Conserving threatened species often requires effective predator suppression strategies, particularly on islands where introduced predators pose significant threats. Density‐impact functions provide a framework to quantify the relationships between predator abundance and impact but are currently limited to a single species with invariant impact.
