Daniel E. Ho’s research while affiliated with Stanford Medicine and other places

... Dezessete estudos utilizaram entrevistas e 13 usaram questionários. Em 11 pesquisas foram utilizadas observações, destacando-se duas etnografias (Fagan & Malkin, 2002;Hara, 2007), sendo que Hara (2007) A inovação na perspectiva político-legal foi compreendida de diferentes formas: combinação de métodos de tratamento de drogas com processamento criminal (Goldkamp, 1994); reformas de procedimentos judiciais (Goodman, Quas, Bulkley, & Shapiro, 1999); mensurações de ideologias no processo de escolha de juízes para instâncias superiores (Giles, Hettinger, & Peppers, 2001); métodos de avaliação patrimonial por juízes (Chen, Yee, & Yoo, 2010); evolução da doutrina de discriminação sexual no ambiente de trabalho (Moyer & Tankersley, 2012); desenvolvimento e implementação de justiça comunitária como legitimação do Judiciário (Fagan & Malkin, 2002); criação de tribunais específicos, como o de drogas e de saúde mental, que atendem com consultas e assistência (Trawver & Rhoades, 2012); difusão de inovações jurídicas (Lutz, 1997); "táticas de inovação", entendidas como a criação de requisitos legais inovadores, ativismo e iniciativa (He, 2013); interação de estabilidade e mudança e a relação entre criação de legislação pelo congresso e aplicação pelos tribunais (Barnes, 2008); e evolução histórica de uma doutrina (Ho & Ross, 2009 A análise dos aspectos administrativos no Judiciário teve como interesse os tipos e as fontes de conflito no desempenho do trabalho de gestores de tribunais (Mays & Taggart, 1986), gestão de desempenho (Pekkanen & Niemi, 2013;Schneider, 2004), parcerias entre tribunais e outras organizações (Kent, 2005), análise de melhores práticas de gestão (Binford, Greene, Schmidlkofer, Wilsey, & Taylor, 2007), accountability judicial e gerencial (Contini & Mohr, 2007), percepção de cultura (Matz, Adams, & Williamson, 2011), métodos de resolução de conflitos (Kovač, 2013) e gestão da imagem (Wu, 2013). os tribunais podem produzir mais com os recursos atuais; (b) as variáveis independentes tiveram coeficientes de regressão positivos com desempenho, com exceção de rotatividade de juízes; (c) alcançar alta produção e baixa taxa de recursos não são objetivos incompatíveis. ...

... All analyses were conducted using RStudio. We started our analysis by estimating the propensity scores using the MatchIt package (Ho et al., 2011). Once we decided the estimation procedure, we continued with the linear regression models to estimate the effect of grade retained on math, science, reading and math self-efficacy. ...

... 15 In extended models, it also includes a control group category constructed using a matching procedure. In addition, see section E in the Supplementary Information (SI) for a power analysis and a randomisation inference test, that allows to show whether the specific randomisation we analyse compares to a set of all possible random assignments that could have taken place (Fisher 1935;Ho and Imai 2006). ...

... The core assumption of this approach-common to many approaches for quantifying political valence on social media (e.g., Barberá 2015)-is that behavior reflects revealed preferences. This is agnostic to the substance of the content in question, in contrast with methods that infer the slant of a given story or source based on its text (Gentzkow and Shapiro 2010;Ho and Quinn 2008). 4 This can make reputations self-fulfilling. ...

... How does candidate order on the ballot affect voting behavior and election results? Ballot order effects have important implications for ballot design, candidate selection, and intra-party competition in American and comparative politics (Ho and Imai 2008;Marcinkiewicz and Stegmaier 2015;Ortega Villodres 2008). Previous research suggests that candidates in the first and last positions tend to receive more votes than other candidates (Alvarez, Sinclair, and Hasen 2006), focusing on first-past-the-post (Ho and Imai 2008) and party-list proportional representation (Gulzar, Robinson, and Ruiz 2022). ...

... Our findings have implications for the design of recommendation systems and Web portals (see also Ho & Quinn, 2008) and suggest that the best architecture-one that could help consumers make better, that is, more consistent, choices-would tailor the presentation mode of recommendations (numerical or verbal) to the expected recommendation format of the consumers. Olson and Budescu (1997) and, more recently, Du, Budescu, Shelley and Omer (2011) have shown, in different contexts, that DMs' preferences for information format are driven, at least, in part by their expectations about the nature of the target events. ...

Much of this work is, understandably, related to the specific legal frameworks that exist in the respective regions, for example, the Administrative Procedure Act in the United States and the growing body of case law and administrative acquis in the European Union. Although much of the legal literature is normative or qualitative, an increasing number of studies use quantitative techniques to assess the impact of regulatory and other laws(Ho & Quinn 2009;O'Connell 2011O'Connell , 2015. ...

... As the designers of these methods themselves point out, they take the case docket as given, when in fact the justices have substantial discretion over the cases they hear. It is not possible to detect if justices as a whole are moving ideologically or if the docket has changed-that is, if the justices simply hear more conservative or more liberal cases over time (12). ...

Over the past several decades, the credibility revolution which swept through empirical economics [141] has also made its way into legal studies [142]. In a manner akin to evidence based medicine, the use of empirical models and methods has increasingly become part of mainstream legal scholarship. ...
