Dif-in-Dif Estimators of Multiplicative Treatment Effects [PDF]
Journal of Econometric Methods, 2014 Abstract We consider a difference-in-differences setting with a continuous outcome. The standard practice is to take its logarithm and then interpret the results as an approximation of the multiplicative treatment effect on the original outcome. We argue that a researcher should rather focus on the non-transformed outcome when discussing

Developments in Defining dif [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 2010 The Gram-negative soil bacterium Myxococcus xanthus has a complex life cycle that involves vegetative growth and, when nutrients are limiting, formation of spore-containing fruiting bodies. The progression of the developmental cycle depends in part upon the ability of M.

DIF in Spanish and Mathematics from Costa Rica’s national tests in reported students with ADHD
Actualidades Investigativas en Educación, 2017 The detection of differential item functioning (DIF) is fundamental to ensure instruments’ invariance, and, therefore, a better estimate of the construct being measured across the different groups of examinees. The purpose of this research was to provide

Prompt fission neutron spectra in the 235U(n,f) reaction [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2023 Prompt fission neutron spectra (PFNS) are crucial to any neutronic simulation of critical nuclear systems. An experimental setup dedicated to the measurements of PFNS of very high accuracy was developed at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE ...

Direct Immunofluorescence in Oral Lichen Planus [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2015 Introduction: Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a common immunemediated oral mucosal disease. Diagnosis of OLP depends mainly on both clinical and histopathological features.

Detection of Uniform and Non-Uniform Differential Item Functioning by Item Focussed Trees [PDF]
, 2015 Detection of differential item functioning by use of the logistic modelling approach has a long tradition. One big advantage of the approach is that it can be used to investigate non-uniform DIF as well as uniform DIF.

Evaluation of memory-preserving models for particle transport in random media [PDF]
EPJ Web of ConferencesA shortcoming of the Levermore-Pomraning (LP) model is its inaccuracy to treat the transport of particles in a diffusive material alternating with a transparent one. Enhanced-memory LP models have been proposed by Zimermann et al.

Erythroderma caused by vancomycin in children: concentration and speed of infusion
Mexican Journal of Medical Research ICSA, 2013 Vancomycin is an antibiotic glycopeptide that was isolated of the Streptomyces orientalis. It was introduced in the clinical practice for treatment of infections caused by staphylococcus in which other antibiotics were proving to be ineffective.

A new method for detecting differential item functioning in the Rasch model [PDF]
, 2010 Differential item functioning (DIF) can lead to an unfair advantage or disadvantage for certain subgroups in educational and psychological testing. Therefore, a variety of statistical methods has been suggested for detecting DIF in the Rasch model.
