Filed under Bayesian Statistics. If you think the latter (and I'm inclined to But perhaps the same seriousness-about-models that inspired me to criticize Axelrod also made me sympathetic to Donald Rubin's approach to Bayesian statistics. If my likely use of Bayesian stats is econometrics, do you think it'd be good to use an “Intro to Bayesian Econometrics” textbook (like Lancaster's) or a general introduction textbook like your “Bayesian Data Analysis.” 1.b. Volume 1 provides an introduction to general concepts and methods in statistics and econometrics, and goes on to cover estimation and prediction. I am mostly in agreement but SW and I are partial to natural experiments and similar methods which generally can be explained to the lay public while other econometricians (say of the Heckman school) do work that is much more difficult to follow without . For example, how many times has . They may also be useful for an experienced Python programmer interested in using NumPy, SciPy, and matplotlib for numerical and statistical analaysis.

Yet he shows this same correlation flips to being negative once you introduce a natural experiment where police presence is somewhat arbitrarily (pseudo-randomly) varied across districts and across time. I really like cross-validation and bootstrapping as ways of thinking about generalization — again, something that's far easier to grasp than sampling and hypothesis testing approaches to parameter inference — which keep getting taught to and misunderstood by generations of confused Introduction to Statistics students. Maybe it's time to study a more applied statistical field like econometrics.
