Description-based and experience-based decisions: individual analysis [PDF]

open access: yesJudgment and Decision Making, 2012
We analyze behavior in two basic classes of decision tasks: description-based and experience-based. In particular, we compare the prediction power of a number of decision learning models in both kinds of tasks.

Evaluating SEM Model Fit with Small Degrees of Freedom

open access: yesMultivariate Behavioral Research, 2021
Research has revealed that the performance of root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) in assessing structural equation models with small degrees of freedom (df) is suboptimal, often resulting in the rejection of correctly specified or closely ...

Relative fitness modeling [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications of the ACM, 2009
Relative fitness is a new approach to modeling the performance of storage devices (e.g., disks and RAID arrays). In contrast to a conventional model, which predicts the performance of an application's I/O on a given device, a relative fitness model predicts performance differences between devices.
