Estimation of a mean in the presence of an extreme observation

Statistics & Probability Letters, 1982
Abstract The performance of Anscombe, semi-Winsorization and Winsorization ( A , S and W ) rules for dealing with extreme observations are investigated for observations from N( μ , σ 2 ) and the simple case where it is assumed that at most one observation in the sample may be biased, arising from N( μ + aσ , σ 2 ) and the primary objective ...

Sources of Meaning and the Presence of Meaning in Life for Narcissists

The aim of this project is to explore what people who score high on narcissism find meaningful. In previous studies I have shown that narcissists derive Meaning in Life (MIL) from conspicuous consumption. In this study I will expand the search of areas in which narcissists derive MIL.

Testing for Treatment Effect in the Presence of Regression toward the Mean

Biometrics, 1997
We are often faced with the statistical problem of evaluating the effect of a treatment in the extreme of a population. This requires taking measurements on truncated random variables and, hence, it becomes necessary to take proper account of the effect of regression toward the mean.

On Estimation Of Mean Life In The Presence Of An Outlier

IEEE Transactions on Reliability, 1983
Life estimation based on an ordered sample from the exponential distribution is considered in the following situations: 1. The first failure occurs at a very early stage of the experiment and is suspected to be an ``early failure''. 2. The last failure is suspected to come from a population with a higher mean than the rest of the sample.

On inference about the mean in the presence of correlation

Statistische Hefte, 1974
The problem considered in this paper is that of developing a mode of inference about the population mean from a sample (from a normal distribution) which are correlated, using structural methods of statistical inference. The result for the general correlation model has been applied to the intraclass correlation model and the first order auto-regressive

Testing for Nonlinearity in Mean in the Presence of Heteroskedasticity [PDF]

, 2004
This paper considers an important practical problem in testing time-series data for nonlinearity in mean. Most popular tests reject the null hypothesis of linearity too frequently if the the data are heteroskedastic. Two approaches to redressing this size distortion are considered, both of which have been proposed previously in the literature although ...
