Methodology
Derived node: assembled mechanically from the claims carrying methodology. A roster, not an adjudicated definition.
Every claim under this term
- 2097160-002 : The methodological assumptions of incomplete contract theory improve the analysis of executive compensation arrangements relative to the classical and spot contract models normally used.
- 2389416-024 : Because the compliance probability denominator is very close to one, fuzzy regression discontinuity estimates differ only trivially from the sharp design estimates on the entire sample.
- 2389423-019 : Least squares linear regression is non-robust to outliers: in the presence of outliers its predictions can be dragged toward the outliers and the variance of the estimates can be artificially inflated
- 2389423-020 : Because the distribution in this sample is heteroscedastic, treating each data point equally would allocate inappropriate weight to data points in the distribution, which is why the author used robust
- 2389423-021 : Weighted least squares regression depends on estimated weights, and contrary to the theory behind the method the exact weights are almost never determinable in real applications such as this study.
- 2470008-039 : Matching the identified Form PF defects against the FSOC's specific uses of that data suggests possible inaccuracies in the FSOC's systemic risk assessment process, although the author disclaims scien
- 2629451-012 : The event study design is appropriate for N/DPAs because the wrongdoing event is identifiable through the execution of a reasonably standardized agreement and because information about the firm's wron
- 2629451-013 : The date of the DOJ press release announcing execution is the only reliable announcement date for an N/DPA, so it is the defensible event date for measuring market reaction.
- 2629451-016 : Unlike legislative mandates, N/DPA governance changes are preceded by no public debate or publicity, so their effect on firm value is not gradually incorporated into prices and is therefore testable b
- 2715083-027 : The confluence trends identified are correlational, not causal: the author expressly disclaims any claim of cause and effect and presents the peripheral effects as long term possibilities warranting m
- 2808132-037 : Venture capital deal flow, meaning the totality of potential deals and business plans screened by venture capitalists, would provide the optimal assessment of innovation trends, but that data is not a
- 2811718-014 : Litigation research on private fund due diligence requires in depth evaluation of case dockets rather than only published judicial decisions, because opinions are snapshots that do not tell the whole
- 2811729-017 : The authors operationalize unconstrained status by binary coding eleven prospectus characteristics and treating a score of nine or better as unconstrained, producing a final study sample of 84 funds o
- 2816408-018 : The sharp and fuzzy regression discontinuity approaches yield results of only minor difference in this setting because the denominator of the fuzzy estimator is very close to one, meaning treatment ta
- 2816408-030 : The discontinuity in the data is evident regardless of the number of bins chosen, even though increasing the number of bins smooths the estimated regression function.
- 2998033-035 : The study rests on a hand coded dataset of 120 private investment funds that use blockchain technology in either their strategy or their operations, compiled by the author and research assistants from
- 3002908-034 : The dataset is incomplete by construction: the 120 fund advisers sampled did not answer all questions and the authors were often unable to obtain information on all questions.
- 3117224-013 : The top 25 ICO jurisdictions in this study are identified from ICO WatchList data, which ranks countries by the number of ICOs launched and reports how much was raised through those ICO projects.
- 3117224-019 : The comparative summaries of national regulatory responses are necessarily incomplete and require much more analysis before they can be determinative for jurisdictional choice.
- 3117224-020 : The United States was excluded from the comparative jurisdictional analysis because its regulatory setup for cryptocurrencies and DLT business was still too uncertain at the time of publication.
- 3125827-021 : Successful proof of stake experiments running today cannot be used to infer that their protocols are truly secure, because the current participant population is atypically altruistic; confidence must
- 3249860-015 : Because tokens move in and out of the top 100 daily, the study limits its time series dataset to all available data on the top 100 cryptocurrencies until April 2018, selecting coins by market capitali
- 3249860-016 : For token issuers in the dataset that did not conduct an ICO, the author used the date of first publicly listed trade as a proxy variable for launch date.
- 3249860-018 : Coding categories frequently allowed a token to fall into more than one category, and where that occurred each category was given equal weight, coded as 0.5 and 0.5 for the corresponding dummy variabl
- 4033886-007 : Because digital asset valuation methodologies vary significantly, the tradeoffs among them leave digital asset managers with meaningful valuation discretion.
- 4900878-013 : A central methodological obstacle for quantum economics is that complex social phenomena such as social power and mental energy resist reduction to exact equations, which leaves the framework without
- 4900878-019 : Quantum economics models must be subjected to empirical testing and to rigorous head to head comparison with classical models across different economic contexts and datasets before their validity and
- 4900880-012 : Existing quantum economic models carry unresolved defects that the field must address: some lack a realistic connection with financial markets, and others strip out the features that make the formalis
- 4900880-026 : Many existing studies of automation and job loss rest on flawed assumptions and weak data, and their seemingly precise figures conceal those defects, so their headline numbers should not be taken at f
- 5254152-010 : The study evaluates each DAO on six factors: Decentralization, Work to Earn, Attack Resistance, Regulatory Compliance, Governance, and Organizational Communication.
- 5254152-011 : Each DAO in the dataset was scored from zero to ten on each factor by analyzing teams, using only publicly available information and the organization's whitepaper where one existed.
- 5254152-012 : A decentralization score of 10 is stipulated to mean a fully decentralized organization with anonymous participation, minimal barriers to entry, and well distributed power; lower scores indicate conce
- 5254152-017 : The author concedes that the scoring metric is imperfect and that some scored attributes may have changed by the time of publication, presenting it instead as a structured approach to evaluating what
- 5541658-008 : Prediction on a test set of existing judgments is not the same task as predicting outcomes for a party mid-litigation, because the precise formulation of facts used by such models emerges only once th
