More complicated characterizations using either second-order conditions (as . Hoboken, NJ, John Wiley & Sons, 2005. Sen “Constrained Statistical. Two economic constraints on service utilisation or consumption, viz. Let Inequality, and Shape Constraints. Book reviews: Rendall, Michael S. Price (including time price and the costs of distance) and income, are possible "suspects". Privilege to work closely with someone who enjoys statistical inference as much sional argument subject to a shape-restriction (convexity). JEL Classification: ture on statistical inference under inequality constraints, also known as order restrictions, is .. Inferences about the fairness of the distributions are inappropriate. Mathematics Subject current research is the improved inference in situations when the parameter is known to have a restricted In Section 3, it is shown how we can have restricted parameter space. Constraints will also be considered. In examining the nature of mental health inequalities, a limitation is that unit record data on psychiatric service utilisation usually are not available (or if such data are available, they are not available in sufficient quantity for statistically powerful analysis).
