Model Data Fit Comparison between DINA and G-DINA in Cognitive Diagnostic Models [PDF]

open access: yesEducation Journal, 2013
In this study, item and model data fit indices, calculated by DINA and G-DINA Models using the same sample and Q matrix, are analyzed. Fit indices for these two models from Cognitive Diagnostic Models are analyzed using 2LL, AIC and BIC statistics. Item fit indices are analyzed using residual correlations and probabilities.

Sickle Cell Disease Is an Inherent Risk for Asthma in a Sibling Comparison Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Sickle cell disease (SCD) and asthma share a complex relationship. Although estimates vary, asthma prevalence in children with SCD is believed to be comparable to or higher than the general population. Determining whether SCD confers an increased risk for asthma remains challenging due to overlapping symptoms and the ...

Evaluating the Performance of Mixed Zero-Inflated Poisson Regression Models with Time-dependent and Time-independent Covariates

open access: yesScientific Journal of King Faisal University: Basic and Applied Sciences
One of the issues that researchers may encounter in count data is having many zeros. One of the solutions to model these data is using zero-inflated Poisson (ZIP) regression models. Recently, researchers have started to model longitudinal count data with

Personalizing the Pediatric Hematology/Oncology Fellowship: Adapting Training for the Next Generation

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The pediatric hematology‐oncology fellowship training curriculum has not substantially changed since its inception. The first year of training is clinically focused, and the second and third years are devoted to scholarship. However, this current structure leaves many fellows less competitive in the current job market, resulting in ...

A Realistic Particle Physics Dark Energy Model

open access: yes, 2004
We present a realistic dark energy model derived from particle physics. Our model has essentially no free parameters and has an equivalent fit to the observational data (CMB, SN1a and LSS) as LCDM and a better fit than the best effective $w(z)$ model ...

An Investigation of Winter Wheat Leaf Area Index Fitting Model Using Spectral and Canopy Height Model Data from Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Imagery

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
The leaf area index (LAI) is critical for the respiration, transpiration, and photosynthesis of crops. Color indices (CIs) and vegetation indices (VIs) extracted from unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) imagery have been widely applied to the monitoring of the crop LAI. However, when the coverage of the crop canopy is large and only spectral data are used to

Nutritional and Behavioral Intervention for Long‐Term Childhood Acute Leukemia Survivors With Metabolic Syndrome

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a common complication in survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic and myeloid leukemia (AL), and a major risk factor for premature cardiovascular disease, type‐2‐diabetes, and metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD).

Are four neutrino models ruled out? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We show explicitly that four neutrino models of the 2+2 variety still provide an acceptable global fit to the solar, atmospheric and LSND neutrino data. The goodness of fit, defined in the usual way, is found to be 0.26 for the simplest such model.
