In this article we present the structure of the $F$ tests, the variance components and the approximate degrees of freedom for each of the eight possible mixed models of the strip-split plot design. We present an example to illustrate the…

Background: In clinical research, the Bland-Altman analysis is commonly used to assess agreement of metric measurements made by two or more techniques, devices or methods. The approach can also deal with repeated measurements per subject or…

A fixed-design residual bootstrap method is proposed for the two-step estimator of Francq and Zako\"ian (2015) associated with the conditional Value-at-Risk. The bootstrap's consistency is proven for a general class of volatility models and…
