Twenty-One Arguments against Propensity Analyses of Probability [PDF]
Erkenntnis, 2004 I argue that any broadly dispositional analysis of probability will either fail to give an adequate explication of probability, or else will fail to provide an explication that can be gainfully employed elsewhere (for instance, in empirical science or in the regulation of credence).

Time and the propensity interpretation of probability
Journal for General Philosophy of Science, 1993 The prime concern of this paper is with the nature of probability. It is argued that questions concerning the nature of probability are intimately linked to questions about the nature of time. The case study here concerns the single case propensity interpretation of probability.

The propensity interpretation of fitness and the propensity interpretation of probability
, 2013 Propose une nouvelle perspective critique sur l'interprétation propensionniste de la fitness ; plus précisément, il s'agit d'une critique de la fitness en tant que propension et de l'idée selon laquelle seule son interprétation propensionniste permettrait de rendre explicatif le principe de l'évolution par sélection naturelle.

Stats, 2022 Propensity score (PS) based methods, such as matching, stratification, regression adjustment, simple and augmented inverse probability weighting, are popular for controlling for observed confounders in observational studies of causal effects.

Estimating General Parameters from Non-Probability Surveys Using Propensity Score Adjustment
Mathematics, 2020 This study introduces a general framework on inference for a general parameter using nonprobability survey data when a probability sample with auxiliary variables, common to both samples, is available.

Prediction Machine Learning Models on Propensity Convicts to Criminal Recidivism
Information, 2023 Increasing internal state security requires an understanding of the factors that influence the commission of repetitive crimes (recidivism) since the crime is not caused by public danger but by the criminal person.

Using Propensity Scores for Causal Inference: Pitfalls and Tips
Journal of Epidemiology, 2021 Methods based on propensity score (PS) have become increasingly popular as a tool for causal inference. A better understanding of the relative advantages and disadvantages of the alternative analytic approaches can contribute to the optimal choice and ...
