An Analysis of Differential Bundle Functioning in Multidimensional Tests Using the SIBTEST Procedure
International Journal of Assessment Tools in Education, 2022 This study aims to analyze the differential bundle functioning in multi-dimensional tests with a specific purpose to detect this effect through differentiating the location of the item with DIF in the test, the correlation between the dimensions, the ...

Cadmo, 2016 In educational context, Differential Item Functioning (Dif) and Differential Bundle Functioning (Dbf) are usually used in assessing item bias. In present study, it is demonstrated how results of Dif and Dbf analyses can help in better understanding the reasons behind one country’s underachievement in international assessments. In Timss 2011 mathematics

Functional Differentiation of Bundle Sheath and Mesophyll Maize Chloroplasts Determined by Comparative Proteomics [PDF]
The Plant Cell, 2005 Abstract Chloroplasts of maize (Zea mays) leaves differentiate into specific bundle sheath (BS) and mesophyll (M) types to accommodate C4 photosynthesis. Consequences for other plastid functions are not well understood but are addressed here through a quantitative comparative proteome analysis of purified M and BS chloroplast stroma ...

Characterizing Regulatory and Functional Differentiation between Maize Mesophyll and Bundle Sheath Cells by Transcriptomic Analysis [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2012 Abstract To study the regulatory and functional differentiation between the mesophyll (M) and bundle sheath (BS) cells of maize (Zea mays), we isolated large quantities of highly homogeneous M and BS cells from newly matured second leaves for transcriptome profiling by RNA sequencing.

Eğitimde ve Psikolojide Ölçme ve Değerlendirme Dergisi, 2023 A differential bundle function (DBF) is a situation in which examinees who are of the same ability but are from different groups are required to answer groups of items differently. DBF undermines the validity of the instrument if inadequately considered.

Differential gene expression and transport functionality in the bundle sheath versus mesophyll – a potential role in leaf mineral homeostasis [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2017 Under fluctuating ambient conditions, the ability of plants to maintain hydromineral homeostasis requires the tight control of long distance transport. This includes the control of radial transport within leaves, from veins to mesophyll. The bundle sheath is a structure that tightly wraps around leaf vasculature.

The differential impact of intraventricular and interventricular dyssynchrony on left ventricular remodeling and function in patients with isolated left bundle branch block [PDF]
Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance, 2012 Interventricular dyssynchrony evaluated with cardiac magnetic resonance is an independent predictor of systolic dysfunction and left ventricular remodeling while intraventricular dyssynchrony is an independent predictor of LV diastolic dysfunction in patients with isolated LBBB. Comprehensive evaluation of both these parameters of dyssynchrony would be
