Behavioral Charity: Third‐Party Ratings of Nonprofits as Salience and Heuristics
Public Administration Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Financial disclosure through tax returns is the primary regulatory mechanism for holding nonprofits accountable to donors in the USA. The assumption that donors will make rational decisions using disclosed information when giving to nonprofits is central to this regulation. But what if they rely on mental shortcuts instead? This study examines

Semiparametric Stepwise Regression to Estimate Sales Promotion Effects [PDF]
, 2005 Kalyanam and Shively (1998) and van Heerde et al. (2001) have proposed semiparametric models to estimate the influence of price promotions on brand sales, and both obtained superior performance for their models compared to strictly parametric modeling ...

Wavelet‐Based Hurst Exponent Estimation
WIREs Computational Statistics, Volume 18, Issue 3, September 2026.The review explores how wavelet‐based methods for estimating the Hurst parameters have developed from their theoretical roots to real‐world applications in fields like biology, engineering, and telecommunications. The review aims to highlight key techniques, compare their strengths and limitations, and point out challenges that still need to be ...

Inference on semiparametric models with discrete regressors [PDF]
, 1993 We study statistical properties of coefficient estimates of the partially linear regression model when some or all regressors, in the unknown part of the model, are discrete. The method does not require smoothing in the discrete variables.

Examining the clustering of lifestyle factors and affect in daily life: An idiographic approach
Applied Psychology: Health and Well-Being, Volume 18, Issue 4, August 2026.Abstract There has been an increase in interest in the health and well‐being benefits of lifestyle factors such as physical activity, diet, sleep, and social interaction. Previous research has highlighted how lifestyle factors, both healthy and unhealthy, tend to covary or cluster together.

Efficient Estimation of Copula-based Semiparametric Markov Models [PDF]
This paper considers efficient estimation of copula-based semiparametric strictly stationary Markov models. These models are characterized by nonparametric invariant (one-dimensional marginal) distributions and parametric bivariate copula functions ...
