The outcome bias is an error made in evaluating the quality of a decision when the outcome of that decision is already known. Overview One will often judge a past decision by its ultimate outcome instead of based on the quality of the decision at the time it was made, given what was known at that time. This is an error because no decision maker ever knows whether or not a calculated risk will turn out for the best. The actual outcome of the decision will often be determined by chance, with some risks working out and others not. Individuals whose judgments are influenced by outcome bias are seemingly holding decision makers responsible for events beyond their control. Baron and Hershey 1988 presented subjects with hypothetical situations in order to test this. ref Baron J. & Hershey J.C. 1988 . Outcome bias in decision evaluation. Journal of Personality and Social Psychology. Vol 54 4 Apr, 569 579. ref One such example involved a surgeon deciding whether or not to do a risky surgery on a patient. The surgery had a known probability of success. Subjects were presented with either a good or bad outcome in this case living or dying , and asked to rate the quality of the surgeon s pre operation decision. Those presented with bad outcomes rated the decision worse than those who had good outcomes. The reason why an individual makes this mistake is that he or she will incorporate presently available information when evaluating a past decision. To avoid the influence of outcome bias, one should evaluate a decision by ignoring information collected after the fact and focusing on what the right answer is, or was at the time the decision was made.

Unreferenced date June 2009 Incurred but not reported IBNR is a term in common use in insurance . IBNR reflects the total amount owed by the insurer to all valid claimants who have had a covered loss but have not yet reported it. Since the insurer knows neither how many of these losses the frequency have occurred, nor the severity of each loss, IBNR is necessarily an estimate. The quality of this estimation is often used as a tool in assessing the financial accounting skills of a given insurer. Insurers track IBNR by policy periods when the policy incepted , along with other categorizations. When a policy of insurance is written it will typically cover a defined often 12 month period from inception of the policy. When the policy is sold, a premium is paid by the insured party to the insurer. The number and cost of claims that will arise from the policy are unknown and unknowable amounts at inception. Indeed, at expiry of the policy there can be a high degree of uncertainty as to what the cost of claims will ultimately be. There might be some information available on incurred claims amounts but this can often be zero. The insurer will conduct a reserving exercise with a view to assessing what this ultimate cost will be. This enables them to assess the profitability of the business that they have written and are planning to write in the future. Typical reserving methods used to assess ultimate claims and hence IBNR reserves include Incurred Chain Ladder Paid Chain Ladder Incurred Bornhuetter Ferguson Paid Bornhuetter Ferguson Exposure based methods Other methods such as the Average Cost Per Claim and Separation are sometimes used. Under Solvency II it has become fashionable to consider reserving on a stochastic claims reserving methods see Outstanding claims reserves .

Notability date September 2011 A Stake in the Outcome 2002 is a book by Jack Stack and Bo Burlingham an editor at Inc. magazine . The book describes the practice of building a culture of ownership within one s business, aiming for long term success. The book gives an overview of how to foster employees enthusiasm, intelligence, and creativity in their positions. Stack is the president and CEO of SRC Holdings Corporation formerly Springfield ReManufacturing Corporation , an employee owned supplier of renovated engines to auto companies. In 1983 Stack and twelve other managers bought the poorly performing factory from International Harvester that they managed. They bought the company with 100,000 in cash and nearly 9M in debt. In a company with a strong culture of ownership, stock is more than compensation. First and foremost, it s a vehicle for change, write Jack Stack and Bo Burlingham in A Stake in the Outcome. Equity is used to involve people in the process of making a difference. In a successful ownership culture, every employee had to take the fate of the company as personally as an individual owner would Business Week magazine called SRC Holdings a management Mecca for its innovative employee ownership program. Employers must retrain employees to think like owners for equity plans to work, Stack says. Owners do not just follow a job description, write Stack and Burlingham. They don t just put in their time. They have something bigger they are working toward. Conversely, management must change the way it thinks about workers. Most managers, for example, assume that a major part of their job is to manage people. But you can t manage owners, the authors say. The alternative is to have a system that allows people to manage themselves. To foster a culture of ownership, the authors suggest these steps Be transparent with your employees.

A Patient Diary is a tool used during a clinical trial or a disease treatment to assess the patient s condition e.g. symptom severity, quality of life or to measure treatment compliance. An Electronic Patient Diary registers the data in a storage device and allows for automatically monitoring the time the entry was made. Frequent recording of symptoms using a diary helps to reduce recall bias. Electronic diaries ensure entries are made as scheduled, and not, for example, in a batch immediately before the clinic visit. Patient diaries are also way to find out if a patient takes the medication according to the treatment schedule, which is an important problem during clinical trials and the treatment of degenerative diseases with relatively few symptoms.

Unreferenced date July 2008 In linguistics , a grammatical patient , also called the target or undergoer, is the participant of a situation upon whom an action is carried out. A patient as differentiated from a theme must undergo a change in state. A theme is denoted by a stative verb , where a patient is denoted by a dynamic verb. At the very least, there is debate to this effect. Also, patient is the name of the thematic relation with the above definition. Typically, the situation is denoted by a Sentence linguistics sentence , the action by a verb in the sentence, and the agent by a noun phrase . For example, in the sentence Jack ate the cheese , the cheese is the patient. In certain languages, the patient is declension declined for grammatical case case or otherwise marked to indicate its grammatical role. In Japanese language Japanese , for instance, the patient is typically affixed with o the hiragana . Although English language Modern English does not mark grammatical role, patienthood is represented irregularly in other ways for instance, with the morpheme s en , ed , or ee , as in eaten , used , or payee . The grammatical patient is often confused with the direct object . However, there is a significant difference. The former is based explicitly on its relationship to the verb , whereas the latter is based primarily on its relationship to the subject grammar subject . For example, in the phrase The dog bites the man , the man is both the patient and the direct object. By contrast, in the phrase The man is bitten by the dog , the man is still the patient, but now stands as the phrase s subject while the dog is only the agent grammar agent . The term theme is often used to describe the same relation as patient.
