Brazilian Journal of Psychiatry, 2020 Objective: Longitudinal measurement invariance analyses are an important way to assess a test’s ability to estimate the underlying construct over time, ensuring that cognitive scores across visits represent a similar underlying construct, and that ...

The Measurement Invariance of Schizotypy in Europe [PDF]
European Psychiatry, 2015 AbstractThe short version of the Oxford-Liverpool Inventory of Feelings and Experiences (sO-LIFE) is a widely used measure assessing schizotypy. There is limited information, however, on how sO-LIFE scores compare across different countries. The main goal of the present study is to test the measurement invariance of the sO-LIFE scores in a large sample

Measuring Causal Invariance Formally [PDF]
Entropy, 2021 Invariance is one of several dimensions of causal relationships within the interventionist account. The more invariant a relationship between two variables, the more the relationship should be considered paradigmatically causal. In this paper, I propose two formal measures to estimate invariance, illustrated by a simple example.

Cardinal invariants associated with Hausdorff measures [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 We consider cardinal invariants determined from Hausdorff measures. We separate many cardinal invariants of Hausdorff measure $0$ ideals using two models that separate many cardinal invariants of Yorioka ideals at once from earlier work. Also we show the uniformity numbers of $s$-dimensional Hausdorff measure $0$ ideals for $0 < s < 1$ and that of ...

The HEX-ACO-18:Developing an age-invariant HEXACO short scale using ant colony optimization [PDF]
, 2022 In this study, we developed an age-invariant 18-item short form of the HEXACO Personality Inventory for use in developmental personality research. We combined the item selection procedure ant colony optimization (ACO) and the model estimation approach ...

Stability of invariant measures
Discrete & Continuous Dynamical Systems - A, 2009 We generalize various notions of stability of invariant sets of dynamical systems to invariant measures, by defining a topology on the set of measures. The defined topology is similar, but not topologically equivalent to weak* topology, and it also differs from topologies induced by the Riesz Representation Theorem.

Frontiers in Psychology, 2020 Seven hundred adolescents (Chinese = 50%; South Asian ethnic minority = 50%) with mean age of 15.3 years (SD = 1.53). Multigroup confirmatory factor analysis was performed to assess measurement invariance of the MSPSS scale across Chinese and South Asian
