Inference for Generalized Gini Indices Using the Iterated-Bootstrap Method
使用迭代自助法对广义基尼指数进行推断
Inference using the iterated-bootstrap method proposed by Hall is appealing for cases in which the percentile method needs to be used but the nominal level of a confidence interval has to be adjusted. One natural application is for generalized Gini indices of income inequality. When applying these theoretical inequality measures directly to sample data for the purpose of statistical inference, economists must come up with some measure of sampling variation. This is…
