Food insecurity and unemployment among immigrants in the United States

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Immigrants can be more vulnerable to economic downturns and, during periods of economic hardship, more likely to experience food insecurity compared to natives. This study examines the differential effect of the unemployment rate on the probability of being food insecure among diverse groups of immigrant households relative to natives in the ...

Executive Functioning as a Pathway Between Social Skills and Psychopathology: The Moderating Role of Autism Diagnosis

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Internalizing and externalizing problems are highly prevalent among children and adolescents, with higher rates observed particularly among those with neurodevelopmental disorders. Previous studies have identified deficits in social competence and executive functioning (EF) as predictive factors of internalizing and externalizing problems, and

Parameter uncertainties for imperfect surrogate models in the low-noise regime

open access: yesMachine Learning: Science and Technology
Bayesian regression determines model parameters by minimizing the expected loss, an upper bound to the true generalization error. However, this loss ignores model form error, or misspecification, meaning parameter uncertainties are significantly ...

Misspecification in dynamic models

open access: yes, 1990
Within the class of ARMAX models we consider the effects that omitted explanatory processes have on the dynamic shape and the exogeneity properties of economic relations. We show that, under suitable assumptions, a well defined "misspecified" ARMAX model exists and is unique.

Pregnancy‐related effect on elexacaftor, tezacaftor and ivacaftor pharmacokinetics in women with cystic fibrosis

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim The number of pregnancies among women with cystic fibrosis (wwCF) has steadily increased over the past decade. However, the pharmacokinetics (PK) of elexacaftor–tezacaftor–ivacaftor (ETI) during gestation remains uncharacterized, despite its widespread use in this population.

Assessing misspecification of individual homogeneity assumption in multi-state models based on asymptotic theory

open access: yesJournal of Biostatistics and Epidemiology, 2015
Background & Aim: Multi-state models can help better understand the process of chronic diseases such as cancers.  These models  are influenced  by assumptions  like individual  homogeneity.

An Alternative Sensitivity Approach for Longitudinal Analysis with Dropout

open access: yesJournal of Probability and Statistics, 2019
In any longitudinal study, a dropout before the final timepoint can rarely be avoided. The chosen dropout model is commonly one of these types: Missing Completely at Random (MCAR), Missing at Random (MAR), Missing Not at Random (MNAR), and Shared ...

Allele frequency misspecification: effect on power and Type I error of model-dependent linkage analysis of quantitative traits under random ascertainment

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2006
Background Studies of model-based linkage analysis show that trait or marker model misspecification leads to decreasing power or increasing Type I error rate.

Can quartet analyses combining maximum likelihood estimation and Hennigian logic overcome long branch attraction in phylogenomic sequence data? [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Systematic biases such as long branch attraction can mislead commonly relied upon model-based (i.e. maximum likelihood and Bayesian) phylogenetic methods when, as is usually the case with empirical data, there is model misspecification.

Pharmacometric evaluation of pre‐referral rectal artesunate in children with severe malaria

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Parenteral artesunate is the preferred first‐line treatment for severe malaria. Pre‐referral rectal artesunate suppositories are recommended where parenteral treatment is inaccessible. In this study, we compared dihydroartemisinin exposure and model‐predicted early parasite clearance following rectal artesunate and intravenous artesunate in ...
