Data analysis strategies for reducing the influence of the bias in cross-cultural research.

Collegium antropologicum

Sindik J.
PMID: 22816195
Coll Antropol. 2012 Mar;36(1):31-7.

In cross-cultural research, researchers have to adjust the constructs and associated measurement instruments that have been developed in one culture and then imported for use in another culture. Importing concepts from other cultures is often simply reduced to language...

Consistency and validity of self-reporting scores in stress measurement surveys.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference

Masood K, Ahmed B, Choi J, Gutierrez-Osuna R.
PMID: 23367025
Annu Int Conf IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc. 2012;2012:4895-8. doi: 10.1109/EMBC.2012.6347091.

Stress has been attributed to physiological and psychological demands that exceed the natural regulatory capacity of a person. Chronic stress is not only a catalyst for diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, insomnia but may also lead to social problems...

Rating scales as predictors--the old question of scale level and some answers.

Psychometrika

Tutz G, Gertheiss J.
PMID: 25205003
Psychometrika. 2014 Jul;79(3):357-76. doi: 10.1007/s11336-013-9343-3. Epub 2013 Jun 13.

Rating scales as predictors in regression models are typically treated as metrically scaled variables or, alternatively, are coded in dummy variables. The first approach implies a scale level that is not justified, the latter approach results in a large...

Item set discrimination and the unit in the Rasch model.

Journal of applied measurement

Humphry S.
PMID: 22805360
J Appl Meas. 2012;13(2):165-80.

The aim is to show that it is possible to parameterize discrimination for sets of items, rather than individual items, without destroying conditions for sufficiency in a form of the Rasch model. The form of the model is obtained...

Testing manifest monotonicity using order-constrained statistical inference.

Psychometrika

Tijmstra J, Hessen DJ, van der Heijden PG, Sijtsma K.
PMID: 25107519
Psychometrika. 2013 Jan;78(1):83-97. doi: 10.1007/s11336-012-9297-x. Epub 2012 Dec 06.

Most dichotomous item response models share the assumption of latent monotonicity, which states that the probability of a positive response to an item is a nondecreasing function of a latent variable intended to be measured. Latent monotonicity cannot be...
