Future Changes in Tropical Cyclone Exposure and Impacts in Southeast Asia From CMIP6 Pseudo‐Global Warming Simulations

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 10, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract In this Pseudo‐global Warming study, potential future changes in the Southeast Asia tropical cyclone (TC) exposure climatology are quantified. One hundred and seventeen landfalling TCs in the last 20 years are simulated with their current climate conditions and also with the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) ensemble ...

Mergers and market power: evidence from rivals' responses in European markets

open access: yesThe RAND Journal of Economics, Volume 53, Issue 4, Page 678-702, Winter 2022., 2022
Abstract We analyze the effects of M&A on the markups of non‐merging rival firms across a broad set of industries. We exploit expert market definitions from the European Commission's merger decisions to identify relevant competitors in narrowly defined product markets and estimate markups as a measure of market power.

D-Optimal Design for the Rasch Counts Model with Multiple Binary Predictors [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology Volume 73, 2020, Issue 3, p. 541-555, 2018
In this paper, we derive optimal designs for the Rasch Poisson counts model and the Rasch Poisson-Gamma counts model incorporating several binary predictors for the difficulty parameter. To efficiently estimate the regression coefficients of the predictors, locally D-optimal designs are developed. After an introduction to the Rasch Poisson counts model

Analysing Effects of Birth Order on Intelligence, Educational Attainment, Big Five, and Risk Aversion in an Indonesian Sample

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Personality, EarlyView., 2020
Abstract Few studies have examined birth order effects on personality in countries that are not Western, educated, industrialized, rich, and democratic (WEIRD). However, theories have generally suggested that interculturally universal family dynamics are the mechanism behind birth order effects, and prominent theories such as resource dilution would ...

Psychometric properties of patient‐reported outcomes measures used to assess upper limb pathology: a systematic review

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, Volume 92, Issue 12, Page 3170-3175, December 2022., 2022
A systematic literature review analysing the psychometric properties of patient‐reported outcome measures that have been used to assess upper limb pathology in children. Prospective studies in children and adolescents are required to determine which patient‐reported outcome measures are valid and reliable to be used in the paediatric population ...
