The modeling of dependencies lies at the heart of statistics and data science, but there remain some profound questions: how statistical inference in probabilistic terms is linked with causality; what modern causality models offer that is substantially different from the traditional dependency...

The problem of estimating expectations of functions of conditional expectations using nested Monte Carlo simulation is studied. It is shown that typically the bias arising from non-linearity is in leading order inversely proportional to the number of sub-simulation paths when using a naive...

This paper aims to present the abridged guidelines for the usage of various measurement scales in social research. Selection of measurement scales play a pivotal role in social science research and most of statistical techniques and tests require a specific measurement scales to be employed in...
