LASSO-Based Pattern Recognition for Replenished Items With Graded Responses in Multidimensional Computerized Adaptive Testing

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2022
As a branch of statistical latent variable modeling, multidimensional item response theory (MIRT) plays an important role in psychometrics. Multidimensional graded response model (MGRM) is a key model for the development of multidimensional computerized ...

Numerical Investigation on Free Vibration Response of Bi-Directional Porous Functionally Graded Circular/Annular Plates [PDF]

open access: yesMechanics of Advanced Composite Structures, 2022
The article presents non-axisymmetric free vibration results of porous bi-directional functionally graded (BDFG) plates. The bi-directional grading index changes with the thickness (z-) and radial (r-) directions and porosity distributions are classified

An application of item response theory to psychological test development

open access: yesPsicologia: Reflexão e Crítica, 2016
Item response theory (IRT) has become a popular methodological framework for modeling response data from assessments in education and health; however, its use is not widespread among psychologists. This paper aims to provide a didactic application of IRT

Cell-to-cell variability in JAK2/STAT5 pathway components and cytoplasmic volumes defines survival threshold in erythroid progenitor cells

open access: yesCell Reports, 2021
Summary: Survival or apoptosis is a binary decision in individual cells. However, at the cell-population level, a graded increase in survival of colony-forming unit-erythroid (CFU-E) cells is observed upon stimulation with erythropoietin (Epo).

Health‐Related Quality of Life and Symptom Severity Among Patients With PIK3CA‐Related Overgrowth Spectrum: A Mixed‐Methods Study to Understand Real‐World Experience With Alpelisib Treatment

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background PIK3CA‐related overgrowth spectrum (PROS) includes several rare overgrowth disorders resulting from somatic gain‐of‐function mutations in PIK3CA. Despite treatment advances, including the recent approval of alpelisib for PROS in the United States, literature detailing the patient experience with PROS is limited.

Assessing Cognitive and Social Attitudes toward Environmental Conservation in Coral Reef Social-Ecological Systems

open access: yesSocial Sciences, 2018
This study addresses the latent construct of attitudes toward environmental conservation based on study participant’s responses. We measured and evaluated the latent scale based on an 18-item scale instrument, over four experimental strata (N = 945)
