Testing Classic Theories of Migration in the Lab [PDF]

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2021
We test the predictions of different classic migration theories by using incentivized laboratory experiments to investigate how potential migrants decide between working in different destinations. We test theories of income maximization, migrant skill-selection, and multidestination choice as we vary migration costs, liquidity constraints, risk, social

Classical test theory versus Rasch analysis for quality of life questionnaire reduction

Health and Quality of Life Outcomes, 2003
Background Although health-related quality of life (HRQOL) instruments may offer satisfactory results, their length often limits the extent to which they are actually applied in clinical practice.

Falsifiability Test for Classical Nucleation Theory

Physical Review Letters
Classical nucleation theory (CNT) is built upon the capillarity approximation, i.e., the assumption that the nucleation properties can be inferred from the bulk properties of the melt and the crystal. Although CNT's simplicity and usefulness cannot be overstated, experiments and simulations regularly uncover significant deviations from its predictions,

GeneralizIT: A Python Solution for Generalizability Theory Computations

SoftwareX
GeneralizIT is a Python package designed to streamline the application of Generalizability Theory (G-Theory) in research and practice. G-Theory extends classical test theory by estimating multiple sources of error variance, providing a more flexible and ...

Survival by Race and Ethnicity in Children and Adolescents/Young Adults With Relapsed/Refractory Hodgkin Lymphoma: A Pooled Analysis of Children's Oncology Group Trials

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Despite 5‐year survival rates of over 90% among children and adolescents/young adults (CAYAs) with classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL), 15%–20% relapse after frontline therapy. Prior analysis of frontline Children's Oncology Group (COG) clinical trials demonstrated that, despite similar rates of relapse, non‐Hispanic Black (NHB) and ...

Impact of Metastatic Patterns on Survival and Response to Therapy in Neuroblastoma

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background While the presence of metastases in neuroblastoma (NB) is a well‐established prognostic factor, the clinical significance of dissemination patterns and tumour burden and their impact on response and survival remains poorly understood.
