In recent economic experiments, lotteries with left-skewed background risks elicit more prudent choices than lotteries with right-skewed background risks. In this letter, we use an expected utility framework to show that a skewed zero-mean background risk may induce not only prudent but also ...
When a distribution has an elongated right tail, it is positively skewed (i.e., it has a positive skewness statistic; e.g., percentage of alumni who donate to their colleges in Figure 5). Conversely, when the left tail is long, the distribution is negatively skewed (e.g., percentage ...
I put the Pennington on the left of the pot and then the Scott’s on the right side of the pot. (The pot just has some potting soil in it, but I don’t think
$$ \mathrm{Psup}=1-\frac{\left\{\frac{\frac{\mathrm{A}}{\mathrm{A}+\mathrm{a}}}{\frac{A^{\prime }}{{\mathrm{A}}^{\prime }+\mathrm{a}^{\prime }}}\right\}}{\left\{\frac{\frac{\mathrm{A}}{\mathrm{A}+\mathrm{a}}}{\ \frac{A^{\prime }}{{\mathrm{A}}^{\prim...
Single-cell genomics is a rapidly advancing field; however, most techniques are designed for mammalian cells. We present a single-cell sequencing pipeline for an intracellular parasite, Plasmodium falciparum, with a small ge...

Such investors will most likely prefer left-skewed payoff distributions over right-skewed payoff distributions. We explore how such distributions can be delivered. Cautious-relaxed utility measures are cautious in ensuring that payoffs don’t fall much below a reference value, but relaxed about ...
Its maximum value goes from 𝑝𝑖=0.5pi=0.5 (case of symmetry with 𝛿=0δ=0) to the left or right as the parameter 𝛿δ decreases or increases. As can be seen, the marginal effects takes on its maximum values at different probability levels depending upon the value of 𝛿δ....
