Measurement invariance and quality of composite scores in a face-to-face and a web survey
Measurement equivalence is a pre-requisite to be able to make comparisons across groups. In this paper we are interested in testing measurement equivalence across respondents answering surveys done using different modes of data collection.

The impact of frequency rating scale formats on the measurement of latent variables in web surveys - an experimental investigation using a measure of affectivity as an example [PDF]
The effects of verbal and/or numerical labeling and number of categories on the measurement of latent variables in web surveys are addressed. Data were collected online in a quota sample of the German adult population (N = 741).

Measures equivalent to the Haar measure [PDF]
We call two measures equivalent if each is absolutely continuous with respect to the other (cf. [1]). Let G be a locally compact topological group and let μ be a non-negative Baire measure on G (i.e. μ is denned on all Baire sets, finite on compact sets and positive on open sets). We say that μ is stable if μ (E)=0 implies μ(tE)=0 for each t ∈ G. A. M.

Risk Measurement with Equivalent Utility Principles [PDF]
Risk measures have been studied for several decades in the actuarial literature, where they appeared under the guise of premium calculation principles. Risk measures and properties that risk measures should satisfy have recently received considerable attention in the financial mathematics literature.

Multigroup and multilevel approaches to measurement equivalence
Comparative surveys have a number of characteristic analysis issues in common. When measurement instruments are used in different cultures or are translated into different languages, the first analysis questions concern measurement equivalence.
