Quantum Graphical Models and Belief Propagation [PDF]

, 2007
Belief Propagation algorithms acting on Graphical Models of classical probability distributions, such as Markov Networks, Factor Graphs and Bayesian Networks, are amongst the most powerful known methods for deriving probabilistic inferences amongst large

Modelling variance in the multidimensional Health Literacy Questionnaire: Does a General Health Literacy factor account for observed interscale correlations?

SAGE Open Medicine, 2022
Objectives: Self-report measures of health literacy frequently encompass a group of conceptually distinct but related domains scored as either a single scale or separately for each domain. Psychometric studies of the 44-item Health Literacy Questionnaire,

Revisiting the factor structure of the Short-Form McGill Pain Questionnaire-2 (SF-MPQ-2): Evidence for a bifactor model in individuals with Chiari malformation.

PLoS ONE, 2023
The Short-Form McGill Pain Questionnaire-2 (SF-MPQ-2; Dworkin et al., 2009) is intended to measure the multidimensional qualities of pain (i.e., continuous, intermittent, neuropathic, and affective) as well as total pain.

Bifactor exploratory structural equation modeling: A meta-analytic review of model fit

Frontiers in Psychology, 2022
Multivariate behavioral research often focuses on latent constructs—such as motivation, self-concept, or wellbeing—that cannot be directly observed. Typically, these latent constructs are measured with items in standardized instruments. To test the factorial structure and multidimensionality of latent constructs in educational and psychological ...

Exploring the structural relationship between interviewer and self-rated affective symptoms in Huntington’s disease [PDF]

, 2016
This study explores the structural relationship between self-report and interview measures of affect in Huntington’s disease. The findings suggest continued use of both to recognize the multidimensionality within a single common consideration of ...

Mentalizing difficulties are transdiagnostic and explain links between mental health and neurodevelopmental symptoms and social adjustment in school‐aged children

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Growing evidence suggests that difficulties reasoning about others' thoughts, feelings and desires (called ‘mentalizing’ or ‘theory of mind’) cut across many mental health and neurodevelopmental conditions but studies have yet to test this claim directly.

Unpacking early risks for peer victimization: A network analysis of early temperament and polygenic risk scores

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Children who show difficult temperament are at risk of peer victimisation, which in turn associates with numerous negative outcomes later in life. We used network analysis to examine whether specific aspects of difficult temperament contributed to these associations, and whether the links were moderated by variations in genetic ...
