## Abstract The topic of attribution of recent global warming is usually faced by studies performed through global climate models (GCMs). Even simpler econometric models have been applied to this problem, but they led to contrasting results. In this article, we show that a genuine predictive approa

โฆ Synopsis
This paper studies in-sample and out-of-sample tests for Granger causality using Monte Carlo simulation. The results show that the out-of-sample tests may be more powerful than the in-sample tests when discrete structural breaks appear in time series data. Further, an empirical example investigating Taiwan's investment-saving relationship shows that Taiwan's domestic savings may be helpful in predicting domestic investments. It further illustrates that a possible Granger causal relationship is detected by out-of-sample tests while the insample test fails to reject the null of non-causality.

We address the issue of statistical power and sample size for cost-effectiveness studies. Tests of hypotheses on the cost-effectiveness ratio (CER) are constructed from the net cost and incremental effectiveness measures. When the difference in effectiveness is known, we derive formulae for statisti
The problem of testing the equality of means of two normal populations is considered when independent random samples of random sizes are given with the total number of observations from both populations being n fixed number. An application in forestry is discussed.
