The Hooded Crow, a bird species that once occurred only in agricultural areas, has colonized urban environments in the last 50–100 years in Europe. Apart from higher food availability, safer nesting sites, better thermoregulation and lower predation in cities, persecution through hunting, trapping or poisoning by humans in rural areas is an important ...

Unconditional Variance Estimation Under Complex Surveys
Summary The unconditional framework treats the samples and the variables of interest as random variables. This is particularly suitable with analytic inference, when modelling survey data. We show that variance estimation does not involve finite population corrections and joint‐inclusion probabilities, even with large sampling fractions and under ...

The Random Power Function for Tests Based on Pivotal Quantities
Summary In clinical trials planning, evaluation of the probability of success of an experiment is of central interest, for instance, in sample size determination. This assessment typically involves analyses of the power function of a test on a parameter of interest, such as a relevant treatment effect.

Collective Bargaining and Monopsony: The Regulation of Noncompete Agreements in France
ABSTRACT Can collective bargaining mitigate monopsony power? This paper studies the extent to which collective agreements regulating employee noncompete clauses affect firm‐level markdowns in French manufacturing. Using a staggered difference‐in‐differences design, we find that such regulation reduces markdowns by 1.3%–2.2% on average.

Avoidance habit learning after recovery from anorexia nervosa: An fMRI study
Background Anorexia Nervosa (AN) has been linked to altered self‐regulatory control processes and maladaptive habitual avoidance behavior. Both goal‐directed and habit systems may be relevant to AN, in which restrictive eating behavior can appear highly deliberate and increasingly automatic over time.
