Understanding mammal avoidance of human settlements

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Terrestrial mammals often avoid human settlements, but is this a result of human activity around buildings or the built infrastructure per se? Using data on animal movement before and during the COVID‐19 lockdowns, this paper disentangles these effects, showing how changes in human mobility affect animals' avoidance of buildings. Abstract Anthropogenic

A hybrid Tiebout model with vintage housing

Real Estate Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how spatial variation in housing ages affects income segregation in US cities. We develop a dynamic general equilibrium hybrid Tiebout model with durable housing that combines local public finance and urban land use theories.

Predictive validity of Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test – Consumption (AUDIT‐C) for register‐based alcohol‐attributable events among general‐population men and women of different ages

Addiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and aims Originally developed for clinical screening for hazardous alcohol use, the Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test – Consumption (AUDIT‐C) is also widely used in epidemiological research and monitoring. However, its cutoff values may not suit all purposes, and evidence on its predictive validity is limited. We examined how

Approximating multidimensionality with asymmetric unidimensional IRT models

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Unidimensional item response theory (IRT) models are widely used even in settings where assessment data exhibit subtle forms of multidimensionality. Recent empirical evidence suggests that when item difficulty is associated with dimensionality, asymmetric item characteristic curves (ICCs) emerge in the unidimensional approximation.

Regularized reduced rank regression for mixed predictor and response variables

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract In this paper, we introduce the Generalized Mixed Regularized Reduced Rank Regression model (GMR4), an extension of the GMR3 model designed to improve performance in high‐dimensional settings. GMR3 is a regression method for a mix of numeric, binary and ordinal response variables, while also allowing for mixed‐type predictors through optimal ...
