Mitigating policy uncertainty: What financial markets reveal about firm‐level lobbying
American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.Abstract Elections can lead to substantial policy changes and, thus, are a significant source of risk. Firms can respond to such policy uncertainty by lobbying, but it is hard to quantify whether they do so and, if so, how much lobbying benefits them. We construct a new dataset and leverage investors’ expectations of variability in stock returns in the

British Journal of Clinical Psychology, EarlyView.Abstract Background Alcohol and cannabis use disorders are among the most prevalent substance use disorders worldwide. They frequently co‐occur and show high comorbidity with psychological distress and suicidal ideation. Although these relationships are well established, their underlying structure remains unclear, as mental health is embedded within a ...

ReMoDe – Recursive modality detection in distributions of ordinal data
British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.Abstract The detection of the number of modes in distributions of ordinal data is relevant for applied researchers across disciplines, from uncovering polarization to detecting incidence groups in clinical symptom scales. Yet, established modality detection methods are either purely descriptive or not developed for ordinal data.

Asymptotic standard errors for reliability coefficients in item response theory
British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.Abstract In a recent review, Liu et al. (Psychological Methods, 2025b) classified reliability coefficients into two types: classical test theory (CTT) reliability and proportional reduction in mean squared error (PRMSE). This article focuses on quantifying the sampling variability of these coefficients under item response theory (IRT) models.
