"robustness checks" refer to the process of double-checking or analyzing the reliability and strength of something, such as a conclusion, result, or finding. It involves conducting additional tests or measurements to determine if the original outcome holds true under different circumstances or variables. These checks ensure that the findings are consistent and not heavily influenced by certain factors or assumptions.
Full definition
However, the pattern of results was largely replicated in
robustness checks using observed data, and the classes were associated with relevant socioeconomic factors in a meaningful way, increasing our confidence that the LCA has captured meaningful patterns in the income data.
«Based on rigorous analysis with
extensive robustness checks, we conclude that the suspicious trading activity caused the unprecedented spike in the USD - BTC exchange rate in late 2013, when the rate jumped from around $ 150 to more than $ 1,000 in two months,» the study states.
Results survived to the inclusion of neighbourhoods» socio - economic characteristics at a very fine level; furthermore, regulation regarding the borderlining practice, coupled with a series
of robustness checks, ensured that a clear causal relationship can be established.
The regression framework with variables to predict long - term stock returns, bond returns, and inflation (the components driving the retiree's remaining portfolio balance) produces estimates that fit the historical data quite well, and we use backtesting for a
further robustness check.
Something comparable to the original Trinity Study, but with more bells - and - whistles and
robustness checks applicable to the FIRE community?
This result holds up quite well in a number
of robustness checks, and we show that the predictive power of the average IV might come from its close relation with systematic risk omitted from CAPM.
This baseline difference motivates a brief analysis of ability interactions and peer effects, discussed after presentation of the main results and
robustness checks.
