A Unified Approach To Sensitivity Analysis In Equilibrium Displacement Models: Comment

Author

Listed:
  • Griffiths, William E.
  • Zhao, Xueyan

Abstract

It is pointed out that the Chebychev confidence intervals and maximum p-values advocated by Davis and Espinoza for sensitivity analysis of equilibrium displacement models are unnecessary. Desired probability intervals and probabilities can be accurately estimated without resorting to gross approximations.
