Feed: R-bloggers. Author: Keith Goldfeld. Randomization is super useful because it usually eliminates the risk that confounding will lead to a biased estimate of a treatment effect. However, this only goes so far. If you are conducting a meditation analysis in the hopes of understanding the underlying causal mechanism of a treatment, it is important to remember that the mediator has not been randomized, only the treatment. This means that the estimated mediation effect is still at risk of being confounded. I never fail to mention this when a researcher tells me they are interested in doing a mediation analysis ...

Feed: SAS Blogs. Author: Rick Wicklin. A quadratic form is a second-degree polynomial that does not have any linear or constant terms. For multivariate polynomials, you can quickly evaluate a quadratic form by using the matrix expression x` A x This computation is straightforward in a matrix language such as SAS/IML. However, some computations in statistics require that you evaluate a quadratic form that looks like x` A-1 x where A is symmetric and positive definite. Typically, you know A, but not the inverse of A. This article shows how to compute both kinds of quadratic forms efficiently. What is ... Read More
