  • Dai, Jie

Abstract

In an influential article, Baum et al. (2006) proposed a novel approach to dealing with uncertainty through conditional variability, as reflected in their Eq. (C.6) of the article. This crucial result in their Eq. (C.6) is, however, incorrect. In this Note, I provide a derivation for the correct result and perform numerical evaluations.
