Toward Improved Models for Decision Making in Economics

Hung T. Nguyen

Abstract:

We elaborate upon four major revelations in statistical science toward improving traditional models for decision-making in social science, in particular in economics. These revelations concern "how to repair statistical inference procedures based on the notion of p-values?","how to correctly obtain predictive modeling?", "how to improve expected utility theory in economics?", and "how to faithfully model economic dynamics?".
