  • enhanced security checks at airports minimizing time to detection or probability of escape
    Stat, 2012
    Co-Authors: Xiaoli Meng
    Abstract:

    A recent featured article in Significance on enhanced security checks at airports presented an argument that permitted a sampling probability to exceed one. The argument itself therefore cannot be valid, regardless of whether its intended conclusion is justifiable on other grounds. The fact that such an argument could pass the security check of a Statistical Publication reminds us of the grand challenge we still face: making principled Statistical reasoning a routine vocabulary of our civilization. An attempt to correct the argument also demonstrates how oversights can inspire insights: we show that in a design-based context, the impact of prior can persist even if we have the resources to collect an infinite amount of data.

  • Casino Chips to Rape Kits: The Effect of Casinos on Reported Rapes on Native American Reservations
    2011
    Co-Authors: Kathleen Cecelia Cunilio
    Abstract:

    Why do reported rape rates vary among US Native American reservations?’ is the research question this undergraduate political science thesis is constructed upon. The dataset utilized for this research design is the FBI Crimes in the U.S. 2009 Statistical Publication which has a specified ‘forcible rape’ category, allowing one to test for possible explanations for the disparity of reported rapes across 81 Native American reservations. Sexual violence is well documented on Indian Country and this study argues that the presence of casinos is correlated to rapes being reported to tribal law enforcement officials. Tribal gaming is a unique institutional facet of the Native American reservation and has been extolled for helping tribes develop economically. However, this study uncovers a destructive side to the Native American casino: an increase in sexual violence.
