Purpose: Studies in hospitality and tourism have seldom investigated the role of employee commitment to building customers' attitudinal loyalty. This study examines the impact of employee commitment on customers' attitude-based loyalty. The study contributes to knowledge of how employees'...

Let (X1, Y1), (X2, Y2), ..., be d+1 dimensional random vectors which are distributed as (X, Y). Let [theta](x) be the conditional median, that is, [theta](x)=inf{y: P(Y[less-than-or-equals, slant]y | X=x)[greater-or-equal, slanted]1/2}. We consider the problem of...

Consider the wavelet estimator of a nonparametric fixed design regression function when errors are strictly stationary and associated random variables. We establish pointwise weak consistency and uniformly asymptotic normality of wavelet estimator of regression function. We give rates of...

In this paper, we propose two estimators, an integral estimator and a discretized estimator, for the wavelet coefficient of regression functions in nonparametric regression models with heteroscedastic variance. These estimators can be used to test the jumps of the regression function. The model...

A sequential procedure is constructed to provide a fixed-accuracy estimator for the number of faults in a system. This paper focuses on the case when faults are homogeneous. However, the method can be adapted to other models by choosing a more robust estimator. The accuracy of the estimator...
