## Abstract This paper proposes a Bayesian estimator for a discrete time duration model which incorporates a non‐parametric specification of the unobserved heterogeneity distribution, through the use of a Dirichlet process prior. This estimator offers distinct advantages over the Nonparametric Maxi
When using the method of deconvolution to establish an IVIVC model, the choice of whether or not to average the data before analysis is a crucial one. Averaging the data leads to a loss of information and current advice on best practise suggests that deconvolution take place at the individual subjec
## Abstract This study aimed to develop a model for predicting the impact of information access using Web searches, on human decision making. Models were constructed using a database of search behaviors and decisions of 75 clinicians, who answered questions about eight scenarios within 80 minutes i
