Encounters in an online brand community: development and validation of a metric for value co-creation by customers.

Cyberpsychology, behavior and social networking

Hsieh PL.
PMID: 25965862
Cyberpsychol Behav Soc Netw. 2015 May;18(5):286-95. doi: 10.1089/cyber.2014.0524.

Recent developments in service marketing have demonstrated the potential value co-creation by customers who participate in online brand communities (OBCs). Therefore, this study forecasts the co-created value by understanding the participation/behavior of customers in a multi-stakeholder OBC. This six-phase...

A discussion of modern versus traditional psychometrics as applied to personality assessment scales.

Journal of personality assessment

Reise SP, Henson JM.
PMID: 12946916
J Pers Assess. 2003 Oct;81(2):93-103. doi: 10.1207/S15327752JPA8102_01.

Item response theory (IRT) methods are used by large testing firms, state agencies, and school districts to construct, analyze, and score most major aptitude, achievement, proficiency, entrance, and professional licensure exams. Personality assessment, in contrast, has not generally adopted...

No evidence for ethnic and racial bias in the Tryout Edition of the Merrill-Palmer Scale-Revised.

Psychological reports

Floyd RL, Gathercoal K, Roid G.

Psychol Rep. 2004 Feb;94(1):217-20. doi: 10.2466/pr0.94.1.217-220.

This research examined a revised version of the Merrill-Palmer Scale, a test of childhood development, to assess the cultural validity of items, i.e., Differential Item Functioning. Archival data were used to determine the Differential Item Functioning of items for...

The making of meaning: comments on Hofstee and Ten Berge.

Journal of personality assessment

McGrath RE.
PMID: 15456647
J Pers Assess. 2004 Oct;83(2):128-30; discussion 136-40. doi: 10.1207/s15327752jpa8302_05.

Hofstee and Ten Berge (2004/this issue) outline a method of scale transformation that places scores on a common absolute scale. This contrasts with traditional relative methods of transformation, which involve scaling in relation to a sample mean. Their primary...

A cautionary note on the effects of range restriction on predictor intercorrelations.

The Journal of applied psychology

Sackett PR, Lievens F, Berry CM, Landers RN.
PMID: 17371098
J Appl Psychol. 2007 Mar;92(2):538-44. doi: 10.1037/0021-9010.92.2.538.

The purpose of this research report is to highlight a unique set of issues that arise when considering the effects of range restriction in the context of estimating predictor intercorrelations. Three approaches are used to illustrate the issue: simulation,...

Sample homogeneity and coefficient alpha: comment on MJI and Alkhateeb's reliability generalization study and a theoretical clarification.

Psychological reports

Henson RK.
PMID: 16279334
Psychol Rep. 2005 Aug;97(1):275-6. doi: 10.2466/pr0.97.1.275-276.

Reliability generalization studies are increasingly frequently reported in the literature, including Mji and Alkhateeb's 2005 study of the Conceptions of Mathematics Questionnaire. The present article comments on an issue of reliability generalization as used in that study and clarifies...

Three Mahalanobis distances and their role in assessing unidimensionality.

The British journal of mathematical and statistical psychology

Yuan KH, Fung WK, Reise SP.
PMID: 15171805
Br J Math Stat Psychol. 2004 May;57:151-65. doi: 10.1348/000711004849231.

Unidimensionality is the hallmark psychometric feature of a well-constructed measurement scale. However, in determining the degree to which a set of items form a unidimensional scale, aberrant item response patterns may distort our investigations. For example, aberrant response patterns...

[Studies of the norm and psychometric properties of Ages and Stages Questionnaires in Shanghai children].

Zhonghua er ke za zhi = Chinese journal of pediatrics

Bian XY, Yao GY, Squires J, Wei M, Chen CI, Fang BH.
PMID: 21055084
Zhonghua Er Ke Za Zhi. 2010 Jul;48(7):492-6.

OBJECTIVE: To introduce the Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ) to China, we created ASQ-Chinese (ASQ-C) and carried out studies of its norm and the psychometrical properties in Shanghai children aged 3-66 months in collaboration with the author of the...

Scale validation via quantifying item validity using the Dm index.

Psychological reports

Taras V, Kline T.
PMID: 21117480
Psychol Rep. 2010 Oct;107(2):535-46. doi: 10.2466/03.PR0.107.5.535-546.

While most validity indices are based on total test scores, this paper describes a method for quantifying the construct validity of items. The approach is based on the item selection technique originally described by Piazza in 1980. Unfortunately, Piazza's...

Executive functioning and positive psychological characteristics: a replication and extension.

Psychological reports

Kruger GH.
PMID: 21675562
Psychol Rep. 2011 Apr;108(2):477-86. doi: 10.2466/04.09.21.PR0.108.2.477-486.

Positive psychological characteristics and executive function are correlated with gratitude, satisfaction with life, and forgiveness. The goal of this study was to replicate these findings while examining two additional constructs, namely, hope and optimism. 113 students (25 men, 88...

Estimating tests including subtests.

Journal of applied measurement

Brandt S.
PMID: 21164225
J Appl Meas. 2010;11(4):352-67.

Current assessment studies often face a dilemma that arises from the necessity of a simultaneous unidimensional and multidimensional interpretation of a test. When, additional to the measurement of a single domain, subdomains of this domain are to be measured,...

Formalizing dimension and response violations of local independence in the unidimensional Rasch model.

Journal of applied measurement

Marais I, Andrich D.
PMID: 18753691
J Appl Meas. 2008;9(3):200-15.

Local independence in the Rasch model can be violated in two generic ways that are generally not distinguished clearly in the literature. In this paper we distinguish between a violation of unidimensionality, which we call trait dependence, and a...
