How much randomness is needed for statistics?
2014
Annals of Pure and Applied Logic
While the Hippocratic approach is in general much more restrictive, there are cases where the two coincide. ...
In algorithmic randomness, when one wants to define a randomness notion with respect to some non-computable measure λ , a choice needs to be made. ...

STATISTICAL COGNITION: TOWARDS EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICE IN STATISTICS AND STATISTICS EDUCATION
2008
Statistics Education Research Journal
SC, however, integrates the facets and provides a basis for EBP in statistical practice and education. First published November 2008 at Statistics Education Research Journal: Archives ...
We argue that, specifically, statistical practice and statistics education should be guided by evidence, and we propose statistical cognition (SC) as an integration of theory, research, and application ...
Similarly, the discipline of statistics provides much content for the statistics curriculum, but it is the job of statistical cognition to provide guidance for teachers on how to best achieve accurate ...

Statistical inference for statistical decisions

An SDF need not perform statistical inference; that is, it need not use data to draw conclusions about the true state of nature. ...
This paper motivates inference-based SDFs as practical procedures for decision making that may accomplish some of what Wald envisioned. ...
Wald's concept of a statistical decision function embraces all mappings of the form [data 6 decision]. In general, a SDF need not perform statistical inference. ...
