An effective method for outlier detection should both identify a large portion of the outliers when they are present in the data, and provide a small number of false alarms when there is no contamination. However basic they may seem, these conflicting requirements are the enemy brothers of...

We study extrapolation between games in a laboratory experiment. Participants in our experiment first play either the dominance solvable guessing game or a Coordination version of the guessing game for five rounds. Afterwards they play a 3x3 normal form game for ten rounds with random matching...

We examine what can be learned about the correlation between Y and X when data are available from two independent random samples; the first sample gives information on variables (Y;Z), while the second sample gives information on (X;Z). The variable Z has the same distribution in both samples, but...
