The complexity of neighborhood effects: A developmental and ecological framework for violent victimization

Criminology, EarlyView.
Abstract Extensive research has established a link between low self‐control and child victimization. However, the specific neighborhood conditions under which low self‐control most strongly influences victimization have been little examined, and, more importantly, no previous studies have investigated the complex ways in which neighborhood context ...

Flexible Rasch Mixture Models with Package psychomix

Journal of Statistical Software, 2012
Measurement invariance is an important assumption in the Rasch model and mixture models constitute a flexible way of checking for a violation of this assumption by detecting unobserved heterogeneity in item response data.

Vision‐related quality of life following trabeculectomy versus Baerveldt glaucoma implant: Five‐year results from a randomized clinical trial

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To assess the vision‐related quality of life (VRQoL) in glaucoma patients over 5 years after primary Baerveldt glaucoma implant (BGI) or trabeculectomy (TE) using a secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial. Methods Patients were randomized to undergo TE or receive a BGI.

Scenario‐Based AI Literacy Scale (SAILS): Evidence for distinct instrumental and critical‐reflective AI skills and their difference from traditional digital skills

British Journal of Educational Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Given the increasing integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into everyday life and professional contexts, it is essential to investigate learners' existing capabilities regarding AI tools to inform possible interventions to equip them with necessary AI skills, but also advance the theoretical frameworks on digital skills measurement and ...

Measuring science self-efficacy with a focus on the perceived competence dimension: using mixed methods to develop an instrument and explore changes through cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses in high school

International Journal of STEM Education, 2022
Background In many countries and regions, such as the United States, Europe and China, a trend has emerged in which students’ enthusiasm for STEM is declining. This decline may be related to students’ lack of science self-efficacy.

IRT‐based response style models and related methodology: Review and commentary

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract We provide a review and commentary on recent methodological research related to item response theory (IRT) modelling of response styles in psychological measurement. Our review describes the different categories of IRT models that have been proposed, their associated assumptions and extensions, and the varying purposes they can serve.

Latent Poisson count models for action count data from technology‐enhanced assessments

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent advances in computerized assessments have enabled the use of innovative item formats (e.g., drag‐and‐drop, scenario‐based), necessitating a flexible model that can capture systematic influence of item types on action counts. In this study, we present a refinement scheme that can explicitly model common features of items and allows ...

Finetuning Pre‐Trained Language Models for Automatic Assessment of English‐Chinese Interpreting

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent years have seen growing interest in leveraging pre‐trained language models (PLMs) for automatic assessment of spoken‐language performance. Contributing to this emerging line of work, the present study offers the first attempt to finetune two PLMs, GTE‐multilingual and mmBERT, for assessing English‐Chinese interpreting, using over 1700 ...
