ABSTRACT This article reviews two major sets of six articles on malingering and invalid response set, which have diametrically opposite conclusions on the value of performance and symptom validity tests (PVTs and SVTs) in forensic and related disability assessments (FDRA). First, we review the six‐article series by the Leonhards, which takes the stance

A probabilistic diagnostic for Laplace approximations: Introduction and experimentation
Abstract Many models require integrals of high‐dimensional functions: for instance, to obtain marginal likelihoods. Such integrals may be intractable, or too expensive to compute numerically. Instead, we can use the Laplace approximation (LA). The LA is exact if the function is proportional to a normal density; its effectiveness therefore depends on ...

Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis with non‐ignorable missing disease status
Abstract This article considers the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis for medical data with non‐ignorable missingness in the disease status. In the framework of the logistic regression models for both the disease status and the verification status, we first establish the identifiability of model parameters, and then propose a ...
