107. Analyzing ordinal data with metric models: What could possibly go wrong? (1:14:09)

Date:

Main contributors:
John K. Kruschke
Summary:
(With co-author Torrin M. Liddell, Research and Statistics Analyst, Public Defender Commission, Indianapolis) We surveyed all articles in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, Psychological Science, and the Journal of Experimental Psychology: General that mentioned the term "Likert," and found that 100% of the articles that analyzed ordinal data did so using a metric model. We demonstrate that analyzing ordinal data as if they were metric can systematically lead to errors. We demonstrate false alarms (i.e., detecting an effect where none exists, Type~I errors) and failures to detect effects (i.e., loss of power, Type~II errors). We demonstrate systematic inversions of effects, for which treating ordinal data as metric indicates the opposite ordering of means than the true ordering of means. We show the same problems --- false alarms, misses, and inversions --- for interactions in factorial designs and for trend analyses in regression. We demonstrate that averaging across multiple ordinal measurements does not solve or even ameliorate these problems. We provide simple graphical explanations of why these mistakes occur. Moreover, we point out that there is no sure-fire way to detect these problems by treating the ordinal values as metric, and instead we advocate use of ordered-probit models (or similar) because they will better describe the data. Finally, although frequentist approaches to some ordered-probit models are available, we use Bayesian methods because of their flexibility in specifying models and their richness and accuracy in providing parameter estimates.

Nancy Fraser Nancy Fraser Marketization, Social Protection, Emancipation: Grammars of Struggle in Capitalist Crisis Thursday, January 27, 2011 7:30 PM - 8:30 PM Rawles Hall 100 In this lecture, Fraser will examine Polanyi's conception of the double movement. Seeking to expand his idea of a two-sided conflict between partisans of deregulated markets and proponents of social protection, she will incorporate a third pole of social movement, aimed at emancipation. The result will be a revised understanding of the grammar of social conflict that better reflects the social struggles of the twenty-first century.

119. Nature, Labor, Money: Flashpoints of Capitalist Crisis in the 21st Century (1:20:51)

Date:
2011-01-25
Main contributors:
Nancy Fraser
Summary:
The thought of Karl Polanyi can shed some much-needed critical light on the present crisis of neoliberalism. His 1944 book, The Great Transformation, traced a previous crisis of capitalism to efforts to commodify land, labor, and money. In Polanyi's view, it was the attempt to turn these three fundamental bases of human society into objects of exchange on self-regulating markets that triggered a crisis of multiple dimensions, not just economic and financial, but also ecological, social, and political. The effects were so destabilizing as to spark an ongoing counter-movement aimed at protecting society and nature from the ravages of the market. The end result was fascism and world war. Although developed for an earlier era, Polanyi's diagnosis is relevant today. Our crisis, too, can be fruitfully analyzed as a great transformation, in which a new round of efforts to commodify land, labor, and money is sparking a new round of counter-movements for social protection. Yet despite its evident merits, such an approach fails to capture the full range of social injustices and social struggles in contemporary capitalism. Thus, Polanyi's framework needs to be reconstructed in a form that is adequate for critical theorizing in the twenty-first century. In this lecture, Fraser will examine Polanyi's concept of fictitious commodification. After proposing a post-metaphysical reinterpretation of this concept, she will use it to analyze burgeoning markets in nature, reproductive labor, and finance as flashpoints of the current crisis of neoliberalism. The result will be a revised understanding of commodification that better grasps both the system dynamics and the normative deficits of contemporary capitalism.
