Measurement Invariance, Entropy, and Probability [PDF]
Entropy, 2010 We show that the natural scaling of measurement for a particular problem defines the most likely probability distribution of observations taken from that measurement scale.

Editorial Measurement Invariance [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2015 Multi-item surveys are frequently used to study scores on latent factors, like human values, attitudes, and behavior. Such studies often include a comparison, between specific groups of individuals or residents of different countries, either at one or multiple points in time (i.e., a cross-sectional or a longitudinal comparison or both).

Frontiers in Psychology, 2022 On page 1 of his classic text, Millsap (2011) states, “Measurement invariance is built on the notion that a measuring device should function the same way across varied conditions, so long as those varied conditions are irrelevant [emphasis added] to the ...

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

Measurement invariance and adapted preferences: evidence for the ICECAP-A and WeRFree instruments. [PDF]
Health Qual Life Outcomes, 2023 Background Self-report instruments are used to evaluate the effect of interventions. However, individuals adapt to adversity. This could result in individuals reporting higher levels of well-being than one would expect.

Are you “phubbing” me? The Determinants of Phubbing Behavior and Assessment of Measurement Invariance across Sex Differences [PDF]
RIMCIS, 2018 Phubbing behavior is pervasive but the examination of the determinants and measurement invariance remain deficient. The present study aims to investigate: (1) relationships between Big Five personality traits (i.e., open-mindedness, conscientiousness ...

Assessing the measurement invariance of latent job satisfaction ratings across survey administration modes for respondent subgroups: A MIMIC modeling approach [PDF]
, 2007 To date, many studies have assessed the measurement invariance of a wide variety of measures across Internet and paper-and-pencil conditions; however a relative dearth exists in the literature investigating measurement invariance across administration ...

Assessing the measurement invariance of Free Will and Determinism Plus scale across four languages: a registered report. [PDF]
R Soc Open SciFree will is assumed to be the core of an individual’s self-concept. Belief in free will has been studied extensively and was found to be correlated with many behavioural and psychological outcomes.
