The case for high speed rail to the three cities: final report
This report has been commissioned by the East Midlands Development Agency (emda) to provide evidence on the case for the Three Cities of the East Midlands, Derby, Leicester and Nottingham to be part of a UK high speed rail network. This report outlines the economic benefits of the introduction of a high speed rail link serving the Three Cities, coupled with upgrades to the existing lines, to form a coherent strategy for the rail network over the next 20 to 30 years
Generalized bootstrap for estimating equations
We introduce a generalized bootstrap technique for estimators obtained by
solving estimating equations. Some special cases of this generalized bootstrap
are the classical bootstrap of Efron, the delete-d jackknife and variations of
the Bayesian bootstrap. The use of the proposed technique is discussed in some
examples. Distributional consistency of the method is established and an
asymptotic representation of the resampling variance estimator is obtained.Comment: Published at http://dx.doi.org/10.1214/009053604000000904 in the

The Impact of Subordinate Disability on Leader-Member Exchange Relationships
[Excerpt] An organizational simulation (n = 85) and a field study (41 supervisors and 220 subordinates) were conducted to investigate the impact of subordinates\u27 disability status on leader-member exchange (LMX) relationships. Both studies investigated how subordinate disability and ingratiation were related to LMX quality. As hypothesized, the interaction of disability and ingratiation affected LMX. Ingratiation had a stronger relationship to supervisors\u27 LMX ratings when a subordinate had a disability. Implications of the results are discussed and suggestions for future research presented
