Journal of Personality, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective In recent decades, increased freedom of choice and advancements in fertility regulation have allowed individuals to follow different fertility paths. This greater autonomy provides room for personality traits to shape long‐term fertility expectations, which in turn can be predictive of fertility outcomes.

Adaptive Estimation for Weakly Dependent Functional Times Series
Journal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We propose adaptive mean and autocovariance function estimators for stationary functional time series under 𝕃p−m‐approximability assumptions. These estimators are designed to adapt to the regularity of the curves and to accommodate both sparse and dense data designs.

LABOUR, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The present paper provides an overall framework to afford the problem of non‐representativeness and non‐random selectivity arising from online job ads data, using Generalized sample selection models and Eurostat benchmark data. We jointly model the outcome intensity (number of online job ads in observed profiles, whose levels are defined by ...

Identifying Asset Poverty Thresholds New methods with an application to Pakistan and Ethiopia [PDF]
Understanding how households escape poverty depends on understanding how they accumulate assets over time. Therefore, identifying the degree of linearity in household asset dynamics, and specifically any potential asset poverty thresholds, is of ...

SEMIPARAMETRIC PENALIZED SPLINE REGRESSION
SEMIPARAMETRIC PENALIZED SPLINE REGRESSIONIn this paper, we propose a new semiparametric regression estimator by using a hybrid technique of a parametric approach and a nonparametric penalized spline method. The overall shape of the true regression function is captured by the parametric part, while its residual is consistently estimated by the nonparametric part.

A Systematic Review on Applications of Artificial Intelligence for Obesity Prevention
Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This systematic review examines the applications of artificial intelligence (AI) in preventing obesity, addressing a critical public health issue that affects a substantial portion of the population. With obesity rates rising alarmingly, particularly in the United States, this review synthesizes findings from 46 studies published between 2008 ...

Public Administration Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Administrative burdens are deliberate policy choices, as governments can proactively design rules and procedures to shape burdens experienced by citizens. While existing research has examined the effects of burden reduction strategies, less is known about the factors driving burden reduction actions at the local level.
