To vary or not to vary: A flexible empirical Bayes factor for testing variance components

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Random effects are the gold standard for capturing structural heterogeneity, such as individual differences or temporal dependence. Yet testing their presence is difficult because variance components are constrained to be non‐negative, creating a boundary problem. This paper introduces a flexible empirical Bayes factor (EBF) for testing random

Mixture multigroup structural equation modelling for ordinal data

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Social scientists often compare groups in terms of relations between latent variables (LV) (i.e. structural relations) using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). LVs are measured indirectly by questionnaires; thus, measurement invariance must be evaluated before comparisons can be made. To efficiently compare many groups, the recently proposed

New estimation methods for diagnostic classification models

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper introduces a new class of estimators for cognitive diagnosis models (CDMs) based on the Cressie–Read family of ϕ$$ \phi $$‐divergences. Focusing on the loglinear CDM (LCDM), for which joint maximum likelihood estimation (JMLE) has been shown to be consistent, we propose a joint minimum divergence estimation (JMDE) framework.

Geometric standardized mean difference and its application to meta‐analysis

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract The standardized mean difference (SMD) is a widely used measure of effect size, particularly common in psychology, clinical trials and meta‐analysis involving continuous outcomes. Traditionally, under the equal variance assumption, the SMD is defined as the mean difference divided by a common standard deviation.

In silico prediction of novel effective combinational treatment of chronic pain in individual patients: A joint white paper of the H2020 QSPainRelief consortium

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Opioids are prescribed widely for chronic pain despite well‐recognised risks and variable long‐term benefit, reflecting the lack of effective alternatives for many patients. Combination therapies offer a promising strategy to enhance efficacy whilst reducing side effects.

Child Protection System and Education: An Umbrella Review of Factors Supporting the Educational Progress of Children in the Foster Care System

Child &Family Social Work, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT International literature has consistently demonstrated that children in the foster care system (FCS) exhibit poorer academic outcomes: lower academic achievement, higher rates of school absenteeism and truancy, lower high school graduation rates and reduced postsecondary educational attainment.

SlideSAVR: Enabling Live Analysis during Data Presentations via Multimodal Sketching and Voice Input

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Interpersonal communication in data science can yield sought‐after insights, but presentation environments are often not conducive for live analysis, forcing the process to move offline. Through a formative survey with 16 participants, we identified both technical (e.g., complexity of tools) and psychological (e.g., pressure of programming ...

The Politics of Othering in the 'Happy Soul': Historicising Abjection in the Promise of Joy for Childhood and Play

Children &Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article interrogates the politics of othering embedded in the taken‐for‐granted association of childhood, play, joy, and happiness. It explores how these notions are historically inscribed as forms of otherness tied to the affective normativity of joy.
