Charles Frederick Manski (born 1948), Professor of Economics at Northwestern University, is an econometrician in the realm of rational choice theory, and an innovator in the arena of parameter identification.〔Charles Manski, Partial Identification of Probability Distributions, New York: Springer-Verlag, 2003.〕 Manski’s research spans econometrics, judgment and decision, and the analysis of social policy (such as work on "School choice"). A specialist in prediction and decision, he is known within the economics field for landmark work on “partial identification,” identification of discrete choice models, and identification of social interactions. He has also performed substantial empirical research on measurement of expectations in surveys.〔Partial Identification: C.

He is the son of Holocaust survivor and Sugihara visa recipient (Samuil Manski ) and Estelle Zonn Manski. Manski grew up in Dorchester and West Roxbury, Massachusetts, attended Boston Latin School, and worked in the family diner. One day, while leading a Torah reading, he had an epiphany that led him away from religious studies and towards scientific skepticism: "() learned something about why dogmas can be tenacious and irreconciliable. Many doctrines pose nonrefutable hypotheses. That is, they make statements about the world that are impossible to disprove. For example, it is impossible to disprove the hypothesis that the god of the Torah created the universe in six days and then rested on the seventh day. It is similarly impossible to disprove the hypothesis that the universe was created by the Flying Spaghetti Monster."Manski is married to Catherine Manski, a lecturer in the Department of Education at the University of Illinois at Chicago. He has two children, journalist Rebecca Manski and sociologist Ben Manski, as well as a grandson, Lev Manski. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Charles F. Manski」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
