The modified weight bias internalization scale: psychometric validation of three versions in a sample of university students

open access: yesEating and Weight Disorders
Purpose The Modified Weight Bias Internalization Scale (WBIS-M) is perhaps the most frequently used measure of internalised weight bias and has growing support for its psychometric properties.

Loglinear-latent-class models for detecting item bias [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
The use of loglinear latent class models to detect item bias was studied. Purposes of the study were to: (1) develop procedures for use in assessing item bias when the grouping variable with respect to which bias occurs is not observed; (2) develop bias ...

The skills required for transition to university and study in biological sciences: A student perspective

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Bioscience students were asked for their opinions on the value and teaching of skills. 204 responded that teamwork, time management and study skills are necessary to reach University, that scientific writing, research, laboratory and presentation skills are taught effectively during their studies, while other skills are gained inherently through study ...

Computerized Adaptive Testing to Balance Exposure Bias and Measurement Accuracy Using Zero-Suppressed Binary Decision Diagrams

open access: yesIEEE Access
Computerized adaptive testing (CAT) presents a tradeoff dilemma involving item exposure bias and measurement accuracy. To resolve this dilemma, we propose a new two-step CAT mechanism to balance exposure bias and measurement accuracy.

A new method for detecting differential item functioning in the Rasch model [PDF]

open access: yes
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.

Blood‐based proteomic profiling reveals context‐dependent changes in BCL2‐associated signaling during taxane therapy in breast cancer patients

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Chemotherapy side effects significantly impact cancer survivors' quality of life. Using protein levels in blood samples from breast cancer patients before and after 12 weeks of taxane treatment, we detected treatment‐dependent changes in calcium signaling and aging pathways associated with cancer recurrence.

Refinement of amino‐acid conformation vs. difference density maps in time‐resolved serial femtosecond crystallography data analysis

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The dFoCC pipeline starts with observed DED and resting‐state coordinates, which are then used to generate a library of triggered states. Correlation analysis of the calculated DED features of each candidate vs observed DED permits quantitative evaluation of candidate structural quality.

Nonparametric Modeling of the Anchoring Effect in an Unfolding Bracket Design [PDF]

open access: yes
Household surveys are often plagued by item non-response on economic variables of interest like income, savings or the amount of wealth. Manski (1989,1994, 1995) shows how, in the presence of such non-response, bounds on conditional quantiles of the ...
