Although credit-scoring models represent a widely used managerialaid for large financial intermediaries, the vast majority ofU.S. credit unionsrelatively small cooperatively ownedretail intermediaries, constrained by sample and funding limitationshaveyet to adopt such techniques. Lovie & Lovie (1986) havetheorized that the flat-maximum effect or curve of insensitivityassociated with linear scoring models could be advantageousin areas of applied prediction such as credit scoring. In thiscontext, we reported the relative predictive power of genericcredit-scoring models versus customized models in an earlierpaper (Overstreet et al. 1992). Unfortunately, these findingswere not readily adaptable to the credit-union industry dueto a dated sample with incomplete credit-bureau information.Consequently, from 1988 to 1991, we gathered a refined databasefrom which to further develop and field-test generic scoringmodels in the credit-union environment. The results reportedherein not only confirm, but amplify, the relative predictivepower of such models found earlier. Relative costs and benefitsof generic versus customized models are modelled for a representativecredit union. Future research directions are set forth in theconclusions. 相似文献

A variety of triarylmethanol compounds including benzo condensed and laterally substituted derivatives 1–10 have been prepared and shown to act as crystallinehosts for the inclusion of organic solvents involving protic polar, aprotic dipolar and apolar molecules. The inclusion ability is ratherhigh for aprotic dipolar solvents while protic polarcompounds are only rarely enclathrated. Host 9 is an exception, being also efficient with alcohols and amines. Compound3 displays no inclusion formation under theexperimental conditions. X-ray crystal structures of the inclusion compound 1acetone (2:1) and of two amineinclusion compounds of host 9 [9 n-propylamine(1:1), 9di-n-propylamine (1:1)] are reported showing the formation of H-bondedhost-guest associates as the common feature of supramolecular association.Supplementary data relating to this article have beendeposited with the British Library, No. SUP 82226 (10 pages).at Boston Spa, Wetherby, West Yorkshire, U.K., as Supplementary Publication. 相似文献

Received on 1 July 1991. Predicting human behaviour patterns with linear correlationmodels has absorbed researchers for the past five decades. Althoughmost observers generally concede that humans are inferior tosuch models in combining information, linear scoring modelsare unfortunately, plagued by the flat-maximum effect or thecurse of insensitivity. As Lovie & Lovie(1986)observe: The predictive ability of linear models is insensitiveto large variations in the size of regression weights and tothe number of predictors. In essence, seemingly differentscoringmodels tend to produce indistinguishable predictive outcomes. Since its demonstration by Dawes & Corrigan (1974), observershave cast the flat maximum in a decidedly negative light. Incontrast, Lovie & Lovie (1986) present a provocatively contrarianview of the flat maximums positive potential. In thissame vein, we examine the predictive power of a generic credit-scoringmodel versus individual empirically derived systems. If, asWainer (1976) noted in regard to the flat maximum, itdont make no nevermind, generic credit-scoringmodels could provide cheaper alternatives to individual empiricallyderived models. During the period 1984–8, a series of linear credit-scoringmodels were developed for ten Southeastern U.S. credit unions.For each credit union, stepwise multiple regression was employedto select a subset of explanatory variables to be used in adiscriminant analysis. A generic credit-scoring equation wasdeveloped from the resulting discriminant analyses using weightedaverage coefficients from five systems. The predictive powerof the generic model was compared to the predictive power ofholdout sample of the five remaining credit-scoring models. In all cases, the generic model's performance was very closeto that of the empirically derived models. Thus, our findingssupport Lovie & Lovie's (1986) challenge to the conventionalwisdom that the flat maximum casts a pall on the successfulmodelling of judgement processes. Indeed, the flat maximum impliesa positive role for simpler, and hence cheaper, generic models.Although further research is needed, it should be possible todevelop hybrid models with generic cores that perform as wellas empirically derived linear models. 相似文献

The exact vibration-rotation quantum mechanical kinetic energy operator (KEO) for centrally-connected penta-atomic molecules such as methane and its isotopomers is derived for two sets of internal valence coordinates: the polyspherical coordinates and the bond-angle valence coordinates. The vibrational KEO including the pseudo-potential term is discussed for two forms of the modified Jacobian. For the rotational and vibration-rotation coupling KEO, results for two schemes of embedding the body-fixed coordinate system are presented: the bond embedding and the bisector embedding. Full expressions for the bisector embedding are too complicated to give in detail, but the working connection between the two embedding schemes is given. The future applications, including the perturbative and variational calculation of the vibrations and/or rotations for centrally connected penta-atomic molecules using the vibration-rotation KEO expressions derived in this work, are discussed. 相似文献

Presently, the mountain gorilla in Rwanda, Uganda, and the Democratic Republic of Congo is endangered mainly by poaching and habitat loss. This paper sets out to investigate the possible resolution of poaching involving the local community by using benefit sharing schemes with local communities. Using a bioeconomic model, the paper demonstrates that the current revenue sharing scheme yields suboptimal conservation outcomes. It is, however, shown that a performance‐linked benefit sharing scheme in which the Park Agency makes payment to the local community based on the growth of the gorilla stock can achieve socially optimal conservation. This scheme renders poaching effort by the local community, and therefore poaching fines and antipoaching enforcement toward the local community unnecessary. Given the huge financial outlay requirements for the ideal benefit sharing scheme, the Park Agencies in central Africa could reap more financial benefits for use in conservation if they employ an oligopolistic pricing strategy for gorilla tourism. 相似文献
