TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the factors driving informal investment in Croatia, Hungary and Slovenia using Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) data, and found that the low rates of informal investment activity and the small amounts of investments in these countries are driven by entrepreneurial behaviors consistent with limited market economy experience.
Abstract: This paper investigates the factors driving informal investment in Croatia, Hungary and Slovenia. Using Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) data, we find that the low rates of informal investment activity and the small amounts of investments in these countries are driven by entrepreneurial behaviors consistent with limited market economy experience. We extend prior studies by investigating the role of business ownership, and identify significant differences between individuals with and without business ownership experience in terms of having start-up skills, knowing an entrepreneur and fearing failure. Cluster analysis identifies seven distinct groups of informal investors, and reveals the heterogeneity in terms of investors’ age, gender, level of education, amount of investment, start-up skills, ownership status, income, opportunity perception and country of residence.

TL;DR: This paper found that consistent formal gender marking enhances brand recall, whereas semantic product associations drive brand evaluation, and congruent semantic associations between brand name and product category drive improved brand evaluations and brand recall.
Abstract: Gender markers provide syntactic structure and a categorization schema to language. Brand name gender is a function of both formal, structural aspects of the brand name and semantic properties of the brand's product class. In the formal gender system of Spanish, consistent formal gender marking enhances brand recall, whereas semantic product associations drive brand evaluation. In the semantic gender system of English, formal cues determine initial brand name gender, but congruent semantic associations between brand name and product category drive improved brand evaluations and brand recall. Three studies across two languages demonstrate that gender's role as a categorization tool underlies these effects.

TL;DR: In this article, Monte Carlo simulation methods were used to compare ten nonparametric estimators of quantiles by using properties such as mean square error and mean absolute deviation, and nine distributions were used for the comparisons.
Abstract: Ten nonparametric estimators of quantiles are compared in small samples by Monte Carlo simulation methods. The estimators are compared by using properties such as mean square error and mean absolute deviation. Nine distributions are used for the comparisons and include long-tailed distributions (e.g., Laplace), short-tailed distributions (e.g., uniform), and skewed distributions (e.g., exponential)
