Abstract:
Objectives:Research shows that self-concordant goals are more readily pursued, better achieved, and their attainment can lead to increases in well-being. This study assesses whether executive coaching in turn affects self-concordance.Design:We hypothesised that the heightened awareness produced by coaching leads to changes in self-concordance (type of motivation) and commitment (a measure of the amount of motivation). A single group design with repeated measures was used.Method:26 participants – all senior managers in business – identified three goals and then received a one-to-one coaching session focused on one goal, but received no coaching on the remaining goals.Results:The hypothesis was supported, with significant changes (increases) in self-concordance and commitment for the coached goal. There were also significant increases in self-concordance and commitment for some of the other non-coached goals.Conclusion:These results are discussed with reference to the goal attainment and coaching literature, and suggestions made for further research.

Abstract:
Introduction: In 2012, ASCO created the Top Five Choosing Wisely (CW) list of low-value tests and procedures for which there is little evidence of benefit. ASCO’s Quality Oncology Practice Initiative, an oncologist-led practice-based quality assessment program, includes measures on the basis of these recommendations. Methods: CW test measures from spring and fall 2013, spring 2014, and spring 2015 were evaluated for concordance rates, change in the concordance over time, and variability by practice characteristics. Practice characteristics recorded included geographic location, academic affiliation, number of new cases, number of medical oncologists, and rounds of participation in Quality Oncology Practice Initiative. Medians, interquartile ranges, and percentages were calculated for concordance with recommendations and practice characteristics. Change in recommendation concordance over time was assessed using linear regression models. Results: From 2013 to 2015, 341 unique oncology practices abstracted the CW measures. Performance varied for specific recommendations. The median concordance was best for measure 1 (patients with low or undocumented performance status who received chemotherapy), where concordance ranged from 78.4% to 83.3%. The lowest concordance was for measure 3 (use of biomarkers or advanced imaging tests for surveillance in early breast cancer), where concordance ranged from 67.7% to 74.2%. Performance on CW measures varied markedly by individual practice. Variability over time and by practice characteristics was observed. Conclusion: Performance on ASCO’s CW demonstrates room for improvement. Concordance rates varied substantially by practice. Further education on CW measures is needed to improve patient care and enhance value.

Abstract:
Introduction: Patients, providers, and payers are striving to identify where value in cancer care can be increased. As part of the Choosing Wisely (CW) campaign, ASCO and the American Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology have recommended against specific, yet commonly performed, treatments and procedures. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of Medicare claims data to examine concordance with CW recommendations across 12 cancer centers in the southeastern United States. Variability for each measure was evaluated on the basis of patient characteristics and site of care. Hierarchical linear modeling was used to examine differences in average costs per patient by concordance status. Potential cost savings were estimated on the basis of a potential 95% adherence rate and average cost difference. Results: The analysis included 37,686 patients with cancer with Fee-for-Service Medicare insurance. Concordance varied by CW recommendation from 39% to 94%. Patient characteristics were similar for patients receiving concordant and nonconcordant care. Significant variability was noted across centers for all recommendations, with as much as an 89% difference. Nonconcordance was associated with higher costs for every measure. If concordance were to increase to 95% for all measures, we would estimate a $19 million difference in total cost of care per quarter. Conclusion: These results demonstrate ample room for reduction of low-value care and corresponding costs associated with the CW recommendations. Because variability in concordance was driven primarily by site of care, rather than by patient factors, continued education about these low-value services is needed to improve the value of cancer care.

Abstract:
PURPOSE The quality of breast cancer care in sub-Saharan Africa contributes to the region’s dismal breast cancer mortality. ASCO has issued quality measures focusing on delivery of adjuvant chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and endocrine therapy. We applied these measures in five South African public hospitals and analyzed factors associated with care concordance. MATERIALS AND METHODS Among 1,736 women with breast cancer who were enrolled in the South African Breast Cancer and HIV Outcomes study over 24 months, we evaluated care using ASCO’s three measures. We also evaluated adjuvant chemotherapy receipt in 957 women with an indication. We used logistic regression to estimate associations between measure-concordant care and patient factors. RESULTS Of 235 women with hormone receptor–negative cancer, 173 (74%) began adjuvant chemotherapy within 120 days from diagnosis. Of 194 patients who received breast-conserving surgery, 73 (37%) began radiotherapy within 365 days from diagnosis. Of 999 women with hormone receptor–positive cancer, 719 (72%) initiated endocrine therapy within 365 days from diagnosis. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy measure-concordant care were more common among women residing < 20 km from the hospital (odds ratio [OR], 1.79; 95% CI, 1.32 to 2.44 and OR, 3.17; 95% CI, 1.57 to 6.42). Endocrine therapy measure-concordant care was more common among English-speaking women (OR, 2.12; 95% CI, 1.12 to 4.02). Participating hospitals varied in care concordance. HIV infection did not affect care quality. CONCLUSION More timely delivery of chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and endocrine therapy is needed in South Africa, particularly for women living > 20 km from the hospital or not speaking English. Focused quality improvement efforts could support that goal.

Abstract:
Abstract We implement two measures for quantifying genealogical concordance in phylogenomic data sets: the gene concordance factor (gCF) and the novel site concordance factor (sCF). For every branch of a reference tree, gCF is defined as the percentage of “decisive” gene trees containing that branch. This measure is already in wide usage, but here we introduce a package that calculates it while accounting for variable taxon coverage among gene trees. sCF is a new measure defined as the percentage of decisive sites supporting a branch in the reference tree. gCF and sCF complement classical measures of branch support in phylogenetics by providing a full description of underlying disagreement among loci and sites. An easy to use implementation and tutorial is freely available in the IQ-TREE software package (http://www.iqtree.org/doc/Concordance-Factor, last accessed May 13, 2020).

Abstract:
Abstract Background Disease-specific guidelines are not aligned with multimorbidity care complexity. Meeting all guideline-recommended care for multimorbid patients has been estimated but not demonstrated across multiple guidelines. Objective Measure guideline-concordant care for patients with multimorbidity; assess in what types of care and by whom (clinician or patient) deviation from guidelines occurs and evaluate whether patient characteristics are associated with concordance. Methods A retrospective cohort study of care received over 1 year, conducted across 11 primary care clinics within the context of multimorbidity-focused care management program. Patients were aged 45+ years with more than two common chronic conditions and were sampled based on either being new (≤6 months) or veteran to the program (≥1 year). Measures Three guideline concordance measures were calculated for each patient out of 44 potential guideline-recommended care processes for nine chronic conditions: overall score; referral score (proportion of guideline-recommended care referred) and patient-only score (proportion of referred care completed by patients). Guideline concordance was stratified by care type. Results 4386 care processes evaluated among 204 patients, mean age = 72.3 years (standard deviation = 9.7). Overall, 79.2% of care was guideline concordant, 87.6% was referred according to guidelines and patients followed 91.4% of referred care. Guideline-concordant care varied across care types. Age, morbidity burden and whether patients were new or veteran to the program were associated with guideline concordance. Conclusions Patients with multimorbidity do not receive ~20% of guideline recommendations, mostly due to clinicians not referring care. Determining the types of care for which the greatest deviation from guidelines exists can inform the tailoring of care for multimorbidity patients.

Abstract:
The article presents the underlying principles, derivation and properties of a simple descriptive measure of concordance between two analogous rank structures that we call the coefficient of structural concordance. It is based upon the idea of Kendall's coefficient of concordance, which we extend to two rank structures. As the coefficient of structural concordance is a pure intergroup measure of concordance, it is designed to complement the Kendall's intragroup coefficient of concordance. We apply this descriptive measure by exploring the relationship between wages and labour productivity in Slovenia for the period 1998-2007. We are able to confirm the hypothesis of high concordance between wages and labour productivity, which indicates a stimulative role of wages in production of market traded goods and services.

Abstract:
AbstractThere is now an increasingly large number of proposed concordance measures available to capture, measure and quantify different notions of dependence in stochastic processes. However, evaluation of concordance measures to quantify such types of dependence for different copula models can be challenging. In this work, we propose a class of new methods that involves a highly accurate and computationally efficient procedure to evaluate concordance measures for a given copula, applicable even when sampling from the copula is not easily achieved. In addition, this then allows us to reconstruct maps of concordance measures locally in all regions of the state space for any range of copula parameters. We believe this technique will be a valuable tool for practitioners to understand better the behaviour of copula models and associated concordance measures expressed in terms of these copula models.

Abstract:
A measure of concordance, $\kappa$, is of polynomial type if and only if $\kappa (tA+(1-t)B)$ is a polynomial in $t$ where $A$ and $B$ are 2-copulas. The degree of such a type of measure of concordance is simply the highest degree of the polynomial associated with $\kappa$. In previous work [2], [3], properties of measures of concordance preserving convex sums (equivalently measures of concordance of polynomial type degree one) were established; however, a characterization was not made. Here a characterization is made using approximations involving doubly stochastic matrices. Other representations are provided from this characterization leading naturally to two interpretations of degree one measures of concordance. The existence of a family of measures of concordance of polynomial type having higher degree generated by a certain family of Borel measures on $(0,1)^{2n}$ is also shown. The representation of this family immediately leads to a probabilistic interpretation for all finite measures in $d_n$. Also, higher degree analogs of commonly known degree one measures of concordance are given as examples. For the degree 2 case in particular, we see there is no finite measure in $d_2$ generating Kendall's tau. Finally, another family of measures of concordance is given containing those generated by finite measures in $d_2$ as well as Kendall's tau.

Abstract:
According to the Americans with Disabilities Act, universities and colleges are required to provide accommodative services for students with disabilities. Many studies have examined the role of malingering mental health symptoms in order to obtain psychotropic medications, but very little research has been done on the role of accommodations as secondary gain in students who may malinger learning disabilities. This study sought to examine both the usefulness of implementing specific malingering detection measures in psychological evaluations with university students and the agreement of those measures within the population. Archival data was gathered from a university accommodation clinic that provided free psychological evaluations for consecutively presenting students (N=121). Four malingering detection measures were used: the Test of Memory and Malingering (TOMM), the Word Memory Test (WMT), the WAIS Digit Span (DS) and two cut scores for the MMPI-2 F Scale (F Scale 80 and F Scale 95). Scores for these four malingering detection measures were compared in terms of their agreement rates, their classification rates (at a 10% malingering base rate recommendation), and their sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive powers using both the TOMM and WMT independently as diagnostic criterion. A qualitative examination of the data revealed that different combinations of measures did classify some of the same respondents as malingering. Results indicated that each of these four measures share the ability to detect malingering in its different forms and have similar classification rates. Although the TOMM and WMT likely provide overlapping information, the pragmatic implementation of one of these measures may assist in the evaluation of suspected malingering with accommodation-seeking students.

Abstract:
Copulas are real functions representing the dependence structure of the distribution of a random vector, and measures of concordance associate with every copula a numerical value in order to allow for the comparison of different degrees of dependence. We first introduce and study a group of transformations mapping the collection of all copulas of fixed but arbitrary dimension into itself. These transformations may be used to construct new copulas from a given one or to prove that certain real functions on the unit cube are indeed copulas. It turns out that certain transformations of a symmetric copula may be asymmetric, and vice versa. Applying this group, we then propose a concise definition of a measure of concordance for copulas. This definition, in which the properties of a measure of concordance are defined in terms of two particular subgroups of the group, provides an easy access to the investigation of invariance properties of a measure of concordance. In particular, it turns out that for copulas which are invariant under a certain subgroup the value of every measure of concordance is equal to zero. We also show that the collections of all transformations which preserve symmetry or the concordance order or the value of every measure of concordance each form a subgroup and that these three subgroups are identical. Finally, we discuss a class of measures of concordance in which every element is defined as the expectation with respect to the probability measure induced by a fixed copula having an invariance property with respect to two subgroups of the group. This class is rich and includes the well-known examples Spearman's rho and Gini's gamma.

Trabalho Final do Curso de Mestrado Integrado em Medicina, Faculdade de Medicina, Universidade de Lisboa, 2014
The impact of LFT was described in SBP, DBP, MAP, HR, SV, CO and SVR, comparing the Nexfin with the ACL, in ICU’s. Twelve patients were submitted to at least one LFT, from which hemodynamic values were retrieved in TV, INS, EXP and PEX moments. The statistic analysis was made using SPSS v21 for descriptive statistics, ICC and Bland-Altman, according to the 2001 ESH protocol. No correlation was found for absolute values in the Nexfin measurements, having failed ESH validation. Nevertheless there was concordance among devices which allowed the BP analysis during the LFT. In the selected sample, the is a significative variation in SBP, DBP and MAP. Conclusions concerning SV, CO e SVR should not be drawn since the Nexfin’s algorithm showed inconsistencies. The concordance results allow the Nexfin to be considered as a future component to be included in clinical research protocols. The results concerning the LFT variations should be clarified using larger samples.
Foi descrito o impacto das PFR na SBP, DBP, MAP, HR, SV, CO e SVR, comparando os valores obtidos no Nexfin e no ACL, em UCI’s. Doze doentes foram submetidos a pelo menos uma PFR de onde se retiraram valores hemodinâmicos nos momentos de TV, INS, EXP e PEX. A análise estatística foi feita com o SPSS v21 para estatística descritiva, cálculo de ICC e análise de Bland-Altman, seguindo o protocolo de 2001 da ESH. Não foi encontrada correlação para valores absolutos nas medições do Nexfin, tendo falhado a aprovação da ESH. Não obstante verificou-se concordância entre dispositivos o que permitiu analisar a variação da PA durante as PFR. Na amostra selecionada verificou-se variação significativa na SBP, DBP e MAP. Não podem ser tomadas conclusões no que diz respeito ao SV, CO e SVR uma vez que o algoritmo do Nexfin se mostrou inconsistente. Os resultados da concordância entre o Nexfin e ACL permitem que este aparelho possa ser considerado como um futuro componente a integrar em protocolos de investigação clínica. Os resultados referentes às variações nas PFR devem ser esclarecidos com amostras maiores.

Abstract:
AbstractIn this chapter we explore pattern analysis for categorical LUC maps as a means of validating land use cover maps, land change and land change simulations. In addition to those described in Chap. “Spatial Metrics to Validate Land Use Cover Maps”, we present three complementary methods and techniques: a Goodness of Fit metric to measure the agreement between two maps in terms of pattern (Map Curves), the focus on changes on pattern borders as a method for validating on-border processes and a technique quantifying the magnitude of distance error. Map Curves (Sect. 1) offers a universal pattern-based index, called Goodness of Fit (GOF), which measures the spatial concordance between categorical rasters or vector layers. Complementary to this pattern validation metric, the following Sect. 2 focuses specifically on the changes that take place on pattern borders. This enables changes to be divided into those that take place on the borders of existing features and those that form new, disconnected features. Bringing this chapter on landscape patterns to a close, Sect. 3 presents a technique for quantifying allocation errors in simulation maps and more precisely on the minimum distance between the allocation errors in simulation maps and the nearest patch belonging to the same category on the reference map. The comparison between a raster-based and a vector-based approach brings us back to the differences in measurement inherent in the representation of entities in raster and vector mode. These techniques are applied to two datasets. Section 1 uses the Asturias Central Area database, where CORINE maps are compared to SIOSE maps and simulation outputs. For their part, the techniques described in Sects. 2 and 3 are applied to the Ariège Valley database. CORINE maps for 2000 and 2018 are used as reference maps in comparisons with simulated land covers.

Abstract:
Over the course of its history, the field of neuropsychology has shifted its focus to meet the demands of the medical landscape. Before the advent of neuroimaging, neuropsychologists were relied on to determine brain lesion location and to diagnose brain-behavior pathologies. As time progressed, neuroimaging was able to provide faster and more consistent lesion identification and neuropsychology began to adapt its skills and services for other related fields, such as education, law, and rehabilitation. As a result, some neuropsychological methods were adapted to assess broader cognitive functions in a variety of populations and the general public; however, these assessments have been heavily rooted in the field’s diagnostically focused past, which creates limitations in the ecological validity of this approach. Ecological validity can be generally defined as a measure’s ability to predict functional performance or mimic activities of everyday living (i.e., performance at work, driving). For example, batteries of neuropsychological tests and questionnaires have been used to infer level of function and general performance at work or school. These batteries were developed due their statistical associations with different populations, concordance with neurological theories and constructs, and general face validity. However, very few assessments resembled any activity a person would perform in daily life. For many measures, ecological validity was defined by correlating performance with everyday functioning (verdicality; Franzen & Wilhelm, 1996). In contrast, another approach to ecological validity involved designing measures to resemble or mimic an everyday function (verisimilitude; Franzen & Wilhelm, 1996). The major difference between the two approaches determines the primary goal of designing the measure at the onset. It must be decided if the measure will prioritize construct validity at the onset and subsequently infer a link to everyday function, or vice versa. Many researchers interested in predicting functional outcome have relied on verisimilitude, as it more closely resembles “real-world” performance; however, it often comes at a cost of interpretability within the context of current neuropsychological frame­works and models.

Abstract:
Anxiety is a sense of perceived threat to one’s physical safety or emotional wellbeing, and symptoms are experienced in body, mind, and spirit. This chapter focuses on anxiety as a normal reaction to stressors—external, internal, or existential. Everyone experiences anxiety, both trait anxiety and state anxiety at multiple points in their lives; however, prolonged and severe symptoms of anxiety can evolve into a clinical form of anxiety, such as generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, or posttraumatic stress disorder. This chapter reviews assessment of anxiety, including evidence-based screening measures and the patient-centered interview. Symptom identification and management incorporating integrative nursing principles are presented, including patient self-management strategies as well as provider-directed treatment options. In clinical decision-making for anxiety symptom management, concordance with the patient in establishing a treatment plan is emphasized. A case study highlights a patient-centered and culturally sensitive approach to the management of anxiety.

Abstract:
In previous papers, the STAT-HAND (Statistical Analysis for Hand) original software was developed and a case study of practical use was presented for the fabrics’ hand evaluation by means of blind tactile sensory feeling. STAT-HAND is an interactive ICT-based learning tool that helps students acting as evaluators during the laboratory activities performed within the course "Systems and Equipment for the Textile Products' Quality Assurance", from the master curriculum delivered at the Faculty of Textile, Leather and Industrial Management – Iasi. However, without minimizing the related issues of the fabrics' subjective evaluation and the importance of the panel with experts, textile students (regardless of the specialty and the study year) must be able to make connections between the product design and the sensory comfort expected for a specified end use. Therefore, for the discipline "Quality assurance in weaving”, the students from the fourth year of study have to develop strategies for the quality control of fabrics according to a specified destination, paying attention to the selection of the specific measuring processes for the objective evaluation of fabrics. In this context, it is also considered useful for teaching students about the primary handle attributes and the subjective evaluation of fabrics hand, with the support of the STAT-HAND software. Subsequently to the fabric hand evaluation, a statistical analysis was required to prove the reliability of the students’ panel and the connection between the subjective and the objective evaluations they carried out. Therefore, for the next stage regarding the topics of subjective and objective evaluation, it was necessary to develop STAT-ConCor (Statistical Analysis for Concordance and Correlation). This software includes two facilities developed in accordance with two algorithms for calculating the Kendall and Spearman coefficients. STAT-Con uses Kendall’s coefficient of concordance calculation as a measure of emphasizing the agreement/disagreement among evaluators within the panel. STAT-Cor uses Spearman’s coefficient of correlation calculation as a measure of emphasizing the level of correlation between the subjective and objective evaluation.

Abstract:
Introduction: Immunohistochemistry, in breast cancer samples, measures the expression of biomarkers such as estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), HER2, and Ki67. Using the positivity or negativity of the receptors and the Ki67 value, this method, along with the histological results, allows the doctors to classify the tumors into four types as follows: Luminal A, Luminal B, HER2, and basal/triple negative. Genetic signature is a tool involving in numerous studies in this area; however owing to the difficulty of access to the tests, its usefulness is still limited. MammaPrint® was the first test approved by the Food and Drugs Administration (FDA) in 2007 to measure prognostic value associated with breast cancer recurrence and classify patients with breast cancer into “low risk” or “high risk” of developing metastases within the first 10 years after diagnosis and elucidates the patient’s need for adjuvant chemotherapy. It categorizes tumors into subtypes based on biological homogeneity. This study aims to analyze the concordance between the results of immunohistochemistry pathological subtyping and MammaPrint®, which is accompanied by BluePrint®, for the classification and stratification of luminal breast cancer. Material and Methods: Data were collected from the medical records of 19 patients in the Instituto Sul Paranaense de Oncologia (ISPON) who presented immunohistochemistry and genetic test compatible with luminal tumors. Immunohistochemistry was evaluated through hormone receptors, HER2 and mainly Ki67, as defined by the 2013 St. Gallen guidelines (50% of the sample were centrally assessed). For classification by the genetic test, BluePrint® provided the molecular subtype data and MammaPrint® stratified the risk, establishing Luminal A tumors as low risk and Luminal B as high risk. The concordance between the immunohistochemical classification and the genetic test was evaluated with the nonparametric McNemar-Bowker test. The Ki67 cutoff value predictive for recurrence risk compared with MammaPrint® was accessed by the ROC curve. Results: The results showed that, on one side, only 33.3% of patients classified as Luminal A by immunohistochemistry were also classified by the genetic signature as Luminal A. On the other side, on the tumors classified as Luminal B, 60% presented agreement between the classifications. Overall agreement among the tests was 47.3%. The cutoff value found for Ki67 predictive of tumor recurrence risk was ≤5, with a sensitivity of 100% and a specificity of 33%. The agreement between hormonal receptors and HER2 with BluePrint® was 100%. Conclusion: This study provides preliminary data regarding the prognostic and predictive value of genetic and molecular tests — represented by MammaPrint®/BluePrint® and immunohistochemistry—in a sample of Brazilian population, evidencing a discrepancy between the methods. The cutoff value of Ki67 predictive for recurrence risk remains under discussion, since there is no standardization of its measurement methodology. As a result, new studies could be developed, with larger and multicentric samples.

Abstract:
Excessive amounts of atmospheric precipitation can cause intense soil erosion, landslides, inundation and floods. Torrential rains have the force to displace and transport soil particles, so the risk of soil erosion becomes real, as many times as atmospheric precipitations have a devastating character. In this context, it is extremely useful to know the particularities of the torrential rains in the current regional climate. At this stage, the Fournier (IF) pluvial aggression index is becoming more and more prevalent. This paper is dedicated to the use of this index with the pluviometric Excess Danger index (IPP) developed at regional level. The results obtained show close concordance between these indices for temporal estimations. Spatial analyzes highlight the role of slopes' orientation in distributing the pluviometric Excess Danger index and slopes' degree of inclination in the case of the Fournier pluvial aggression index. The results obtained are useful in the efficient use of agricultural land and in the elaboration of measures for the improvement of degraded soils.

Abstract:
The quality improvement is essential for every textile enterprise. The optimization of quality could be possible only by using the best materials. The quality of products for customer reflects the materials used in factory, the cycle of production, the processing of each technological line and also the maintenance of machines on the entire technological line. If one of these criterions is neglected, the quality expected by the customer won't be the optimal one. The notion of optimization is adopted relative because the company will be able to secure better materials, to hire a larger staff, to replace the parts of the machines more often. Only these measures will improve the quality, but the real rise of costs could catapult the company out from the market. The lab and the technical service have to be capable of supervising the whole cycle of production in different ways. The success of improving will be assured only by learning the causes of different imperfections of semi-finished products and goods. The main objective is the control of the causes and not of the effects. It is also necessary to out run the primary data a little over the general informing level. The statistics methods permit the value of every individual characteristic on each fabrication cycle. When the fabrication cycle is improved the statistic limits are also more precise. The STATTEX program is very useful for physical and mechanical labs for determination of the fibers physical-mechanical characteristics while the reception on new materials is done, for determination of the semi-finished products characteristics and also for processing of the data from analysis report elaborated for each 3000 kg lot of fibers or any time when it's necessary. The STATTEX program solved the following problems: - Reading of experimental data; - Arrangements of the pool data; - Elimination of the aberrant values using the Dixon or Grubbs tests depending on the sample volume and after then their visualization; - Presents a report for the remaining values; - Lists this report on printer; - Calculates the valid values and their classification; - Testing the concordance between experimental and normal distribution by using the concordance c2 or the Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests depending on sample volume; - Allows the option for listing a report on printer which contains the helping table for the concordance tests; - Graphic representations: - The histogram - The polygon of the relative frequencies - The polygon of the absolute frequencies - The diagram of the cumulate frequencies - Allows the option to list the graphic representations on the printer - Calculates the typical poll values (arithmetical average, median line, mood value, amplitude, dispersion, the average square deviation, the coefficient of variation, the absolute average deviation, the coefficient of linear irregularity, the coefficient of asymmetry, the coefficient of vaulting and the excess); - Allows the option for listing the VTS report that contains the typical poll values calculated previously for interpreting the results.

Abstract:
This study introduces a novel index based on expectations concordance for explaining stock-price volatility when historically unique events cause unforeseeable change and Knightian uncertainty in the process driving outcomes. Expectations concordance measures the degree to which nonrepetitive events are associated with directionally similar expectations of future returns. Narrative analytics of daily news reports allow for assessment of bullish versus bearish views in the stock market. Increases in expectations concordance across all KU events leads to reinforcing effects and an increase in stock market volatility. Lower expectations concordance produces a stabilizing effect wherein the offsetting views reduce market volatility. The empirical findings hold for ex post and ex ante measures of volatility and for OLS and GARCH estimates.
