A Novel One-Parameter Inverse ZLindley Distribution: Theory, Reliability Measur...
Hussain, Sajadul; Hazarika, Partha Jyoti; Das, Jondeep; S. Eliwa, Mohamed; Hussain, SajadulThis paper introduces the inverse ZLindley (IZL) distribution, an extension of the Lindley and ZLindley families for modeling lifetime data and complex reliability systems. The model captures right-skewed data and nonlinear hazard patterns, including the inverse-bathtub shape. Its main analytical properties are derived, and the uncertainty analysis shows that the shape parameter controls system variability. Fou...
Generalized Erlang Mixture Distributions and Generalized Gamma Mixture Distribu...
Paroissin, Christian; Paroissin, ChristianIn this paper, we define two general classes of probability distributions, called generalized Erlang mixture (GEM) distributions and generalized gamma mixture (GGM) distributions. These families contain some classical distributions, like the exponential and the Lindley distributions, but also many other ones introduced since more or less one decade. We provide characterizations of this family by considering the...
Generalized Marshall-Olkin Bivariate Exponential Distributions: Accepted Octobe...
Arnold, Barry C.; Sachdeva, Sachin; Bhati, Deepesh; Sachdeva, SachinIn this paper, we discuss the generalized Marshall–Olkin Bivariate Exponential Distribution. This model was briefly mentioned in Marshall and Olkin (1967b) and Esary and Marshall (1974) but, to our knowledge, has not been studied further in the literature. This model extends the classical three-parameter Marshall–Olkin bivariate exponential (MOBVE) distribution by allowing the common shock to affect the two var...

Martins, Laura; Afonso, Carlos Miguel; Pinto Contreiras, JoaquimAlthough the literature acknowledges several determinants of job satisfaction, the relative contribution of organizational factors, such as benefits, career development, and organizational structure, remains unclear, particularly in specific contexts such as the golf sector. Thus, the present study aims to analyze the impact of these factors on job satisfaction of employees in organizations in the golf sector. ...
