The Swiss Way. The Nature of the Swiss Relationship with the EU
Swiss–EU relations are based on a set of negotiated sector-specific agreements and lack central coordinating institutions or enforcement mechanisms. At first sight, this arrangement promises a much greater degree of autonomy and self-determination towards the EU than the comprehensive and legally constraining architecture of the EEA. This official depiction has been questioned in…

Time-frequency Granger causality with application to nonstationary brain signals
This PhD thesis concerns the modelling of time-varying causal relationships between two signals, with a focus on signals measuring neural activities. The ability to compute a dynamic and frequency-specific causality statistic in this context is essential and Granger causality provides a natural statistical tool. In Chapter 1 we propose a review of the existing methods allowing one to…

Robust Inference for Time Series Models: a Wavelet-Based Framework
We present a new framework for the robust estimation of time series models which is fairly general and, for example, covers models going from ARMA to state-space models. This approach provides estimators which are (i) consistent and asymptotically normally distributed, (ii) applicable to a broad spectrum of time series models, (iii) straightforward to implement and (iv)…

Simulation based bias correction methods for complex problems
Nowadays, the increase in data size and model complexity has led to increasingly difficult estimation problems. The numerical aspects of the estimation procedure can indeed be very challenging. To solve these estimation problems, approximate methods such as pseudo-likelihood functions or approximated estimating equations can be used as these methods are typically easier to implement…

Background: Attitudes toward body shape and food play a role in the development and maintenance of dysfunctional eating behaviors. Nevertheless, they are rarely investigated together. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the interrelationships between implicitly assessed attitudes toward body shape and food and to investigate the moderating effect on these associations of…

Prevalence and characteristics of addictive behaviors in a community sample: A latent class analysis
While addictions to substances such as alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs have been extensively investigated, interest has been growing in potential non-substance-related addictive behaviors (e.g., excessive gambling, buying or playing video games). In the current study, we sought to determine the prevalence and characteristics of a wide range of addictive behaviors in a general…

Women's substantive representation: defending feminist interests or women's electoral preferences?
To what extent does the inclusion of marginalized groups in policymaking institutions influence policy outcomes? This article examines whether and under which conditions female legislators are more likely to represent women's interests compared to male legislators. Building on the literature on women's substantive representation, it is argued that the advocacy of women…

Rebel governance and the politics of civil war
Dominant narratives and theories developed at the turn of the 21st century in order to account for civil wars in Africa converged around the idea that this upsurge in violence was linked to state failure or decay. Violent conflict thus came to be seen as the expression of the weakness, disintegration and collapse of political institutions in the post-colonial world, and guerrilla…
