Abstract: We provide some counterexamples showing that some concepts of positive dependence are strictly stronger than others. In particular we will settle two questions posed by Pemantle (2000) and Pellerey (2002) concerning respectively association versus weak association, weak association versus supermodular dependence, and supermodular dependence versus positive orthant dependence.

Keywords: Association; weak association; supermodular dependence; positive orthant dependence. (search for similar items in EconPapers)
