Toward a more ethical clinical trial.

Joseph B. Kadane, Nell Sedransk (1980)

Trabajos de Estadística e Investigación Operativa

Similarity:

Current methods of conducting clinical trials require the patient to agree to have his treatment assigned randomly, where his individual characteristics are taken into account only to balance the treatment groups. A Bayesian alternative involves eliciting the prior opinions of the group of clinicians who designed the study. Each patient is then guaranteed that the treatment he will receive is the best for him either in the opinion of at least one individual clinician or as a consensus...

Parameters in collective decision making models : estimation and sensitivity

Tom A. B. Snijders, Evelien P. H. Zeggelink, Frans N. Stokman (1997)

Mathématiques et Sciences Humaines

Similarity:

Simulation models for collective decision making are based on theoretical and empirical insight in the decision making process, but still contain a number of parameters of which the values are determined ad hoc. For the dynamic access model, some of such parameters are discussed, and it is proposed to extend the utility functions with a random term of which the variance also is an unknown parameter. These parameters can be estimated by fitting model predictions to data, where the predictions...
