I read about a time series method, panel data and the cross-sectional method.
Does somebody know whether the time-series method is the same as the panel data method or the cross-sectional or is something different? I'm somewhat confused.

It's very simple, really, and you don't even have to use statistical gobbledygook.
No executed person ever committed another crime. That's deterrence.
Anything else is gravy.

Technically California that's Incapacation and the Incapacation Argument does bear weight since so many convicted murderers have murdered again instead of getting the DP..Doc and me have a thread on individual cases.. Deterrence like everything else else in the realm of psychology is impossible to scientifically prove with the same certainty as the fact that water always freezes at the same temperature.. Here-with water- we can repeat the experiment with exactly the same results..which isn't the case in the theoretical scenario of a potential murderer refraining from a murder out of fear of the DP. |

There is one DR inmate in Texas (I wish I could remember his name right now) from Michigan who stated that he had just moved here from Michigan and did not know Texas had the DP when he murdered his victims here. It's almost as if he is saying "If I had known Texas had the DP the outcome might have been different......"

Does somebody know whether the time-series method is the same as the panel data method or the cross-sectional or is something different? I'm somewhat confused. The panel data method appears to be a type of time series method. I believe the phrase "cross sectional" could apply to various types of statistical analysis as well as other types of evaluation or analysis. www.statisticssolutions.com/Time-Series-Analysis.htm |
