Recent advances in the personality and turnover literatures suggest the importance of expanding current turnover criteria, incorporating dark personality traits, and examining the role of time in these relationships. The present study investigates these issues by considering both the speed and the reasons for leaving, examining a wider range of personality variables as predictors by including both “bright” and “dark” traits, and exploring the potential moderating effect of time in such predictio

Abstract We study Bayesian procedures for sparse linear regression when the unknown error distribution is endowed with a non-parametric prior. Specifically, we put a symmetrized Dirichlet process mixture of Gaussian prior on the error density, where the mixing distributions are compactly supported. For the prior on regression coefficients, a mixture of point masses at zero and continuous distributions is considered. Under the assumption that the model is well specified, we study behavior of the

We investigate statistical properties of a likelihood approach to nonparametric estimation of a singular distribution using deep generative models. More specifically, a deep generative model is used to model high-dimensional data that are assumed to concentrate around some low-dimensional structure. Estimating the distribution supported on this low-dimensional structure, such as a low-dimensional manifold, is challenging due to its singularity with respect to the Lebesgue measure in the ambient

It is well-known that the Kullback–Leibler support condition implies posterior consistency in the weak topology, but is not sufficient for consistency in the total variation distance. There is a counter–example. Since then many authors have proposed sufficient conditions for strong consistency; and the aim of the present paper is to introduce new conditions with specific application to nonparametric mixture models with heavy–tailed components, such as the Student-$t$. The key is a more focused r

We consider posterior consistency for a Markov model with a novel class of nonparametric prior. In this model, the transition density is parameterized via a mixing distribution function. Therefore, the Wasserstein distance between mixing measures can be used to construct neighborhoods of a transition density. The Wasserstein distance is sufficiently strong, for example, if the mixing distributions are compactly supported, it dominates the sup-$L_{1}$ metric. We provide sufficient conditions for

In this paper, we use the class of Wasserstein metrics to study asymptotic properties of posterior distributions. Our first goal is to provide sufficient conditions for posterior consistency. In addition to the well-known Schwartz’s Kullback–Leibler condition on the prior, the true distribution and most probability measures in the support of the prior are required to possess moments up to an order which is determined by the order of the Wasserstein metric. We further investigate convergence rate

In a smooth semiparametric model, the marginal posterior distribution of the finite dimensional parameter of interest is expected to be asymptotically equivalent to the sampling distribution of frequentist's efficient estimators. This is the assertion of the so-called Bernstein-von Mises theorem, and recently, it has been proved in many interesting semiparametric models. In this thesis, we consider the semiparametric Bernstein-von Mises theorem in some models which have symmetric errors. The sim
