非常態間斷隨機變數的產生 / Generation of non-normal approximated discrete random variables

李晏, Lee, Yen Unknown Date (has links)
使用母數統計方法(Parametric Tests)分析資料時,常需滿足常態假設,但實際得到的資料卻少有常態,因此研究違反常態假設對統計量所造成影響的強韌性研究(Robustness Research)在應用統計方法上是重要的研究主題。在進行此類研究時,常使用蒙地卡羅法(Monte Carlo Method)產生非常態之資料進一步進行研究,目前雖已有多個可產生非常態連續資料的方法被提出,但心理學研究之資 料卻多為間斷資料。而在產生非常態間斷資料時,除難以產生指定參數之間斷分配外,亦有無限多組具同樣參數之間斷分配可供選擇。針對以上兩困難,本研究提出可使用最大資訊熵程序估計符合指定參數之單變數間斷分配,用以產生對應之單變數間斷資料。最大資訊熵方法可所估出之間斷最大資訊熵分配除為符合指定參數時最常出現之分配以外,同時具有平滑、非必要無0 機率等特性。本研究呈現指定4 參數(平均數、變異數、偏態及峰度)與指定2 參數(偏態及峰度) 之最大資訊熵方法,及相對應之R 套件,並以R 套件對此2 方法進行探討評估。結果發現本研究所提出之二方法,在要求指定參數與估計參數之誤差均不超過 .001 時,均可估計出符合指定參數之可能組合之分配,顯示此二方法可精確產生指定參數之間斷分配。而本研究所提供之R 套件,除可在輸入點數、指定參數後產生間斷分配,亦可輸入指定樣本數目及樣本數於此間斷分配中抽取樣本,使此二方法於使用蒙地卡羅法進行間斷資料之強韌性研究時,更易於使用。 / When conducting the robustness researches about normality assumption with Monte Carlo method, a procedure for simulating non-normal data is needed. Some procedures for simulating the non-normal continuous data have been proposed, but the discrete data of ordered categorized variables (e.g., Likert-Type scale) are what we met mostly in practice. To estimate the discrete probability distribution precisely and choose one from infinite discrete probability distributions with the same constraints are 2 difficulties encountered on discrete data simulating process. Therefore, the research purposed a procedure called Maximum Entropy Procedure (MEP) which simulates the univariate discrete maximum entropy distribution with the specified parameters. The distribution is the one with greatest number with the specified parameters, most unlikely probability distribution with 0 probability and smoothest. The characteristics make the MEP a reasonable and considerable choice on simulating univariate discrete data with specified parameters. The MEP-4 (constraints on mean, variance, skewness and kurtosis), the MEP-2 (constraints on skewness and kurtosis) and the corresponding R packages which could estimate the univariate discrete distributions with the specified parameters are presented, evaluated and discussed in this research. It shows that the MEP-4 and MEP-2 are able to estimate the discrete probability distributions precisely with possible combinations of specified parameters with all differences are smaller than .001 and thus useful for robustness researches. The R packages presented in this study are easily to estimate the discrete probability distributions with specified parameters and generate data from these distributions with specified number of samples and sample size. Therefore the MEP-4 and MEP-2 could be easily implemented for generating discrete data with the specified parameters through the corresponding R package and thus useful for Monte Carlo method of robustness researches.
