Experimental practices in economics: A methodological challenge for psychologists?-Open Peer Commentary-Different perspective of human behavior entail different experimental practices

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider four features of experimentation in economics, namely, script enactment, repeated trials, performance-based monetary payments, and the proscription against deception, and compare them to experimental practices in psychology, primarily in the area of behavioral decision making.

Yui-kin Ng
TL;DR: In this paper, the role of statistical significance testing (SST) in education has been discussed and a thorough discussion of common misconceptions associated with SST and the major arguments for and against SST is presented.

Supplier integration for new product developments: antecedents for supplier integration in modular product designs

Justus Eggers
TL;DR: In this paper, a qualitative analysis detects supplier characteristics for module developments by looking at three cases from different four wheel vehicle industries, and the identified supplier characteristics are tested empirically in regards to joint developments between buyers-suppliers (grey-box) and self-conducted supplier developments (black-box).

Reply to comments on « The modern hypothesis testing hybrid : R.A. Fisher's fading influence »

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the nature du "test de signification d'une hypothese nulle" (NHST) presente peu de ressemblance avec le modele propose par Fisher il y a quelque quatre-vingts years.

Significance testing as perverse probabilistic reasoning

TL;DR: This essay provides a technically sound review of fundamental concepts of probability theory that is accessible to a medical audience and briefly review the debate in the cognitive sciences regarding physicians' aptitude for probabilistic inference.
Journal ArticleDOI

Statistics: Reasoning on Uncertainty, and the Insignificance of Testing Null

TL;DR: Ecologists should finally abandon the false doctrines and textbooks of their previous statistical gurus and instead learn what leading statisticians write and say, collaborate with statisticians in teaching, research, and editorial work in journals, and train them to utilize appropriately the expanded statistical toolbox.

The sample size for a clinical trial: a Bayesian-decision theoretic approach.

TL;DR: A program is presented, suitable for actual planning, which, with some extensions, implements Canner's solution to this question, and Bayesian and Neyman--Pearson approaches are compared.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fiducial inference in the pivotal family of distributions

TL;DR: In this article, the pivotal family of distributions is considered and a general method of deriving fiducial distributions of parameters is proposed. But, the method is not suitable for the case of continuous distributions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intelligent design and probability reasoning

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors defend two theses about probabilistic reasoning, i.e., the fact that a hypothesis says that an observation is very improbable does not entail that the hypothesis is improbable.
