Statistical and numerical tests.

Statistical and numerical indices of the comparison between the simulated and empirical data, by scenario and typologies of experts (1st column). The 2nd column indicates the number of times the simulation estimates falls within the empirical confidence interval (CI). The 3rd column indicates the Wilcoxon Signed Rank statistic (WSR). Cases reported with an ‘*’ indicate that the nullity of the difference between the paired two-samples (simulated and empirical) can not be rejected (at the significance level 5%). The 4th column reports the K-S test statistic (K-S) between the simulated sample and the regression line. Cases reported with an ‘*’ indicate that the 2 samples could come from the same distribution (at the significance level 5%). The 5th column indicates the correlation coefficient (r) between the simulated sample and the regression line.
