This document discusses simulations of multinomial randomized response models. It describes how the Warner randomized response model was extended to allow for multiple mutually exclusive categories. The key points are:
1) Abul-Ela et al. (1967) defined the multinomial randomized response model which allows sampling of multiple groups during a single experiment.
2) Simulations of the trinomial randomized response model are discussed, including calculating variances, biases, and mean squared errors to compare to direct response models.
3) Optimal values of the randomization probabilities (p-values) need to be determined to minimize variance while maximizing compliance for the trinomial model.

This document summarizes research analyzing factors associated with the clinical characteristic of "dominance" in patients with cocaine dependence. The researchers explored correlations between dominance and scores on measures of depression, personality traits, and alcohol use. They found that dominance was most strongly correlated with scores of vindictiveness, intrusiveness, and alcohol use. The researchers then categorized these scores into high and low groups and explored interactions between the groupings. Statistical modeling found that dominance was best explained by interactions between the vindictiveness, intrusiveness, and alcohol use groupings. Longitudinal modeling across six months yielded similar results, supporting the persistence of these correlations over time.
Naive Bayes with Conditionally Dependent Datatim_hare
The document discusses how Naive Bayesian classification can work well even when there is conditional dependency in data. It presents experiments using synthetic conditionally dependent data added to a real dataset to test classification. The experiments show Naive Bayes classification is not affected when conditional dependency is of the same type across classes or "cancels out", supporting past research. Control runs on the original real data are compared to runs adding different forms of synthetic dependency. Results indicate Naive Bayes classification is robust to these forms of conditional dependency.
