Item Response Theory

open access: yes, 2009
La preocupación con las medidas de los rasgos psicológicos es antigua y muchos estudios y propuestas de métodos fueron desarrollados para lograr este objetivo. Entre estas propuestas de trabajo se incluye la Teoría de la Respuesta al Ítem (TRI) que, en principio, vino a completar las limitaciones de la Teoría Clásica de los Tests, ampliamente utilizada

Doing less but getting more: Improving forced-choice measures with Item Response Theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Forced-choice tests, despite being resistant to response biases and showing good operational validities, have psychometric problems if scored traditionally. These questionnaires are generally longer than their normative counterparts, and more cognitively

Nonlinear sequential designs for logistic item response theory models with applications to computerized adaptive tests

open access: yes, 2009
Computerized adaptive testing is becoming increasingly popular due to advancement of modern computer technology. It differs from the conventional standardized testing in that the selection of test items is tailored to individual examinee's ability level.

Evaluation of Item Response Theory Models for Nonignorable Omissions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
When competence tests are administered, subjects frequently omit items. These missing responses pose a threat to correctly estimating the proficiency level.

The ubiquitin ligase RNF115 is required for the clearance of damaged lysosomes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Upon lysosomal rupture, an E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF115 translocates from the cytosol to the damaged lysosomal membrane. Moreover, RNF115 depletion impairs the clearance of damaged lysosomes, identifying it as a key regulator of lysosomal quality control.

Relationship between connectedness with nature and environmental beliefs

open access: yesInnoeduca, 2019
Connectedness to nature is defined as a feeling of belonging to natural environment. Studies over relationship between connectedness and environmental beliefs from the New Paradigm Environmental Scale, show low-mean correlation values.

In vitro models of cancer‐associated fibroblast heterogeneity uncover subtype‐specific effects of CRISPR perturbations

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Development of therapies targeting cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) necessitates preclinical model systems that faithfully represent CAF–tumor biology. We established an in vitro coculture system of patient‐derived pancreatic CAFs and tumor cell lines and demonstrated its recapitulation of primary CAF–tumor biology with single‐cell transcriptomics ...

Detecting Crossing Differential Item Functioning (Cdif): Based on Item Response Theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The objective of this study was to find out the empirical data of the index of crossing Differential Item Functioning (DIF) and the difference of sensitivity among methods in detecting crossing DIF according to the Item Response Theory.

Don't Tie Yourself to an Onion: Don’t Tie Yourself to Assumptions of Normality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A structural measurement model (Adams, Wilson, & Wu, 1997) consists of an item response theory model for responses conditional on ability and a structural model that describes the distribution of ability in the population.

Transcriptional network analysis of PTEN‐protein‐deficient prostate tumors reveals robust stromal reprogramming and signs of senescent paracrine communication

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Combining PTEN protein assessment and transcriptomic profiling of prostate tumors, we uncovered a network enriched in senescence and extracellular matrix (ECM) programs associated with PTEN loss and conserved in a mouse model. We show that PTEN‐deficient cells trigger paracrine remodeling of the surrounding stroma and this information could help ...
