用稳健的非参数方法重新分析Fair(1978)的婚外情理论,发现控制其他因素后,结婚年数对婚外情倾向并非相关预测变量,与参数模型结论相反。

Abstract

Abstract We revisit Fair's ( 1978 ) ‘theory of extramarital affairs’ using robust nonparametric methods developed for the analysis of categorical data. We find evidence suggesting that the number of years married is not a relevant predictor of the propensity to engage in extramarital affairs having controlled for other factors. This finding runs counter to the prevailing wisdom gleaned from misspecified parametric models. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
