Measurement invariance within and between subjects: A distinct problem in testing the equivalence of intra- and inter-individual model structures.

Frontiers in Psychology, 2014
We address the question of equivalence between modeling results obtained on intra-individual and inter-individual levels of psychometric analysis. Our focus is on the concept of measurement invariance and the role it may play in this context.

Criterion‐Related Validity of the Neuropsychological Quick Assessment for Screening Cognitive, Motor, and Behavioral Impairments in Patients With Pediatric Brain Tumors: An Observational Pilot Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Neuropsychological complications may impair the qualitative prognosis of patients with pediatric brain tumors. However, multifaceted evaluations cannot be conducted in all patients because they are time consuming and burdensome for patients.

Parent Quality of Life at Two Years Following Their Child's Completion of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Treatment

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Parents of children treated for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) often experience significant caregiver burden and disruption to their well‐being. While parent quality of life (QoL) during treatment is well characterized, little is known about outcomes during early survivorship.

Equivalent σ-finite invariant measures

Journal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications, 2006
The paper describes a ratio condition that is necessary and sufficient for a \(\sigma\)-finite measure space \((X, \beta, m)\), with a non-singular, bi-measurable, ergodic transformation \(T\) onto itself, to have a \(T\)-invariant \(\sigma\)-finite measure equivalent to \(m\).

Intraoperative Collection of Ascitic Fluid With Intra‐ or Postoperative Reinfusion in Ovarian Cancer: Safety and Feasibility of a Roller Pumping Method

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Patients with ovarian cancer often present with massive ascites, leading to significant protein loss during surgical procedures. Although cell‐free concentrated ascites reinfusion therapy (CART) is used in palliative settings to mitigate protein loss, its application in intraoperative settings remains unexplored.

Adjunctive Therapeutic Plasma Exchange in Refractory Adult‐Onset Still's Disease Complicated by Secondary Macrophage Activation Syndrome: A Single‐Center Experience

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Adult‐onset Still's disease (AOSD) complicated by macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) carries substantial mortality. The role of therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) remains uncertain. Methods We retrospectively analyzed patients with AOSD‐MAS treated with TPE at a single‐center.

Approximate Measurement Invariance in Cross-classified Rater-mediated Assessments

Frontiers in Psychology, 2014
An important assumption underlying meaningful comparisons of scores in rater-mediated assessments is that measurement is commensurate across raters. When raters differentially apply the standards established by an instrument, scores from different raters

Equivalence–Singularity Dichotomy in Markov Measures

Journal of Theoretical Probability, 2022
We establish an equivalence-singularity dichotomy for a large class of one-dimensional Markov measures. Our approach is new in that we deal with one-sided and two-sided chains simultaneously, and in that we do not appeal to any 0-1 law. In fact we deduce a new 0-1 law from the dichotomy.
