A Tutorial on Conducting and Interpreting a Bayesian Independent T‐Test Using Open‐Source Software
ABSTRACT Aim To demonstrate a worked‐out example of a Bayesian independent t‐test using open‐source software, simulated data, a hypothetical nurse education intervention and a randomised controlled study design. This tutorial explains relevant Bayesian concepts and highlights literature that provides statistically principled justifications for ...

Comparing Data‐Driven Methods for Removing Options in Assessment Items
Abstract Test items with problematic options often require revision to improve their psychometric properties. When an option is identified as ambiguous or nonfunctioning, the traditional approach involves removing the option and conducting another field test to gather new response data—a process that, while effective, is resource‐intensive.

The Interaction between Credit Constraints and Uncertainty Shocks
Abstract This paper proposes a novel link between credit markets and uncertainty shocks. We introduce a role for credit uncertainty via collateral constraints in an otherwise standard real business cycle (RBC) model and show that an increase in credit uncertainty triggers a precautionary response that interacts with the collateral constraint to ...

Dream habits in a large cohort of preteens and their relation to sleep and nocturnal awakenings
Summary The present study examined dream habits, and their relation to sleep patterns, in 1151 preteens (597 boys; 554 girls; 11.31 ± 0.62 years old). Dream questionnaires assessed the frequency of dream recall, nightmare, and lucid dream, as well as the intensity of emotions experienced in dreams. Sleep variables included sleep duration and efficiency,

A Mixture Transition Distribution Modeling for Higher‐Order Circular Markov Processes
ABSTRACT This study considers the stationary higher‐order Markov process for circular data by employing the mixture transition distribution modeling. The underlying circular transition distribution is based on Wehrly and Johnson's bivariate joint circular models.
