Private to Public: Deterrent Effects of Bans on Confidential Settlements

Southern Economic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nondisclosure agreements are common in the settlement of legal disputes but are controversial as they suppress information that could prevent harm to others. But until the 2017 #MeToo movement, there had been little legislative effort to prohibit the practice in any context, and consequently no evidence on whether public disclosure of harms ...

The Zero-Information-Limit Condition and Spurious Inference in Weakly Identified Models [PDF]

The fact that weak instruments lead to spurious inference is now widely recognized. In this paper we ask whether spurious inference occurs more generally in weakly identified models.

Local Eviction Moratoria and the Spread of COVID‐19

Southern Economic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT At different stages during the initial onset of the COVID‐19 pandemic, various US states and local municipalities enacted eviction moratoria. One of the main aims of these moratoria was to slow the spread of COVID‐19 infections. We deploy a semiparametric difference‐in‐differences approach with an event study specification to examine whether ...

Confidence Intervals for Two Proportions—A Generalized Estimation and Information Assessment

Mathematics
This paper develops profile score confidence intervals (i.e., z-standard intervals) by inverting orthogonalized score estimators for comparing two independent binomial proportions in rate difference, rate ratio, or odds ratio and utilizes a generalized ...

Micromotion-enabled improvement of quantum logic gates with trapped ions

New Journal of Physics, 2017
The micromotion of ion crystals confined in Paul traps is usually considered an inconvenient nuisance, and is thus typically minimized in high-precision experiments such as high-fidelity quantum gates for quantum information processing (QIP).

From prediction to intervention: Paradigm shifts in causal AI for precision medicine and large‐scale cohorts

VIEW, EarlyView.
Large‐scale cohorts and multimodal biomedical data have enabled powerful predictive models for clinical risk stratification, but prediction alone cannot guide effective interventions. This review introduces causal artificial intelligence as a design‐first framework that integrates target trial emulation, causal discovery, and robust effect estimation ...

Posidonia oceanica Leaves as a Natural Filler for Poly(Butylene Succinate‐Co‐Adipate) Composites: Characterization and Biodegradation Assessment in Seawater

Journal of Vinyl and Additive Technology, EarlyView.
This study shows that incorporating 5–10 wt.% Posidonia oceanica, with or without micro‐talc, in PBSA preserves thermal stability, modifying crystallization behavior, and maintains good filler dispersion and interfacial adhesion. Mechanical properties are moderately stiffened.
