JS: Expectancy-Value Theory of Achievement Motivation

by Allan Wigfield, Jacquelynne S. Eccles - Contemporary Educational Psychology
"... We discuss the expectancy–value theory of motivation, focusing on an expectancy–value model developed and researched by Eccles, Wigfield, and their colleagues. Definitions of crucial constructs in the model, including ability beliefs, expectancies for success, and the components of subjective task v ..."

Expectation Value in Bell ′ s Theorem

by Zheng-chuan Wang , 2008
"... We will demonstrate in this paper that Bell ′ s theorem (Bell ′ s inequality) does not really conflict with quantum mechanics, the controversy between them originates from the different definitions for the expectation value using the probability distribution in Bell ′ s inequality and the expectatio ..."

ON EXPECTED VALUES OF MARKOV STATISTICS By

by Seiichi Iwamoto
"... In this paper we give both forward and backward iterative algorithms for computing expected value of some associative statistics associated with a stationary Markov chain on finite state space. Both algorithms are based upon an invariant imbedding technique in dynamic programming. 1. ..."

On the Expected Value of the Minimum Assignment

by unknown authors , 2000
"... The minimum k-assignment of an m×n matrix X is the minimum sum of k entries of X, no two of which belong to the same row or column. If X is generated by choosing each entry independently from the exponential distribution with mean 1, then Coppersmith and Sorkin conjectured that the expected value of ..."

On The Expected Value Of Games With Absentmindedness

by Adam J. Grove, Joseph Y. Halpern - Games and Economic Behavior , 1997
"... Piccione and Rubinstein argue that a seemingly paradoxical form of time inconsistency can arise in games of imperfect recall. Their argument depends on calculating the expected value of a game from the standpoint of a player in the middle of play. We claim that this concept is not well defined in g ..."

Negative Expected Value Suits

by Lucian Bebchuk, Lucian Arye Bebchuk - NBER Working Paper Series Paper no. W6474 , 1998
"... This essay discusses the existing theories as to why (and when) plaintiffs with negative-expected-value suits can extract a positive settlement amount from the defendant. DEFINITION OF NEV SUITS. A negative-expected-value (NEV) suit is one in which the plaintiff would obtain a negative expected retu ..."

The expected value of frequency calibration

by Robert T Clemen , Allan H Murphy - Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes , 1990
"... It is possible to calibrate subjective probabiites using relative frequency information pertaining to a probability assessor's past performance. This procedure is known as frequency calibration and can be used to improve the quality of assessed probabilities. We develop a conceptual model of t ..."

of the probability assessment process and, on the basis of this model, show how to calculate the expected value of frequency calibration (EVFC) using standard Bayesian preposterior analysis. U.S. National Weather Service precipitation probability forecasts are used to illustrate the calculation of EVFC

Liquidity Risk and Expected Stock Returns

by Lubos Pastor, Robert F. Stambaugh , 2002
"... This study investigates whether market-wide liquidity is a state variable important for asset pricing. We find that expected stock returns are related cross-sectionally to the sensitivities of returns to fluctuations in aggregate liquidity. Our monthly liquidity measure, an average of individual-sto ..."
