Notes on Special Discrete Distributions
... and var(X) = E(X 2 ) − [E(X)]2 works out to give var(X) = r(1 − p)/p2 . The cdf, F (x), can be obtained from p(x) in the usual way, as a summation, but has no nice closed formula. A NegBin(r, p) random variable X can be thought of as the number of trials until the rth success when independent trials ...

Conceptions of Determinism in Radical Behaviorism
... Nevin (1991) and Baum (1994) have also uttered statements that appear to be compatible with metaphysical determinism. Nevin (1991), for instance, has made clear: “According to the most central tenets of our creed, all behavior is determined by genetic and environmental processes” (p. 36). Similarly, ...
