Aversion to ambiguity and model misspecification in dynamic stochastic environments. [PDF]
Preferences that accommodate aversion to subjective uncertainty and its potential misspecification in dynamic settings are a valuable tool of analysis in many disciplines.

Errors in Statistical Inference Under Model Misspecification: Evidence, Hypothesis Testing, and AIC [PDF]
The methods for making statistical inferences in scientific analysis have diversified even within the frequentist branch of statistics, but comparison has been elusive.

The Impact of Measurement Model Misspecification on Coefficient Omega Estimates of Composite Reliability. [PDF]
Coefficient omega indices are model-based composite reliability estimates that have become increasingly popular. A coefficient omega index estimates how reliably an observed composite score measures a target construct as represented by a factor in a ...

A comparison of covariate adjustment approaches under model misspecification in individually randomized trials. [PDF]
Adjustment for baseline covariates in randomized trials has been shown to lead to gains in power and can protect against chance imbalances in covariates.

Genetic model misspecification in genetic association studies [PDF]
Objective The underlying model of the genetic determinant of a trait is generally not known with certainty a priori. Hence, in genetic association studies, a dominant model might be erroneously modelled as additive, an error investigated previously.

Minimum Penalized ϕ-Divergence Estimation under Model Misspecification [PDF]
This paper focuses on the consequences of assuming a wrong model for multinomial data when using minimum penalized ϕ -divergence, also known as minimum penalized disparity estimators, to estimate the model parameters.

Comparing performance between log-binomial and robust Poisson regression models for estimating risk ratios under model misspecification. [PDF]
BackgroundLog-binomial and robust (modified) Poisson regression models are popular approaches to estimate risk ratios for binary response variables. Previous studies have shown that comparatively they produce similar point estimates and standard errors ...

Power and Sample Size Calculations for Genetic Association Studies in the Presence of Genetic Model Misspecification. [PDF]
Introduction: When analyzing data from large-scale genetic association studies, such as targeted or genome-wide resequencing studies, it is common to assume a single genetic model, such as dominant or additive, for all tests of association between a ...

Consequences of Model Misspecification for Maximum Likelihood Estimation with Missing Data
Researchers are often faced with the challenge of developing statistical models with incomplete data. Exacerbating this situation is the possibility that either the researcher’s complete-data model or the model of the missing-data mechanism is ...
