DOI: 10.1002/ecy.2481
Abstract: Variation in life-history traits such as lifespan and lifetime reproductive output is thought to arise, in part, due to among-individual differences in the underlying probabilities of survival and reproduction. However, the stochastic nature of demographic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s41237-018-0059-7
Abstract: This study applies a new Bayesian univariate ordered probit model to happiness data on Australia, Canada, and the US, with immigration status and religion status reflecting individual heterogeneity in the threshold model. The empirical results… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/1748006x18808964
Abstract: Degradation analysis is a popular and effective method for reliability analysis of long-life and high-reliability products. However, for newly developed products, especially for highly customized products with small sample size, the challenge of sparse degradation… read more here.
