Sufficient Sample Size and Power in Multilevel Ordinal Logistic Regression Models [PDF]

open access: yesComputational and Mathematical Methods in Medicine, 2016
For most of the time, biomedical researchers have been dealing with ordinal outcome variable in multilevel models where patients are nested in doctors. We can justifiably apply multilevel cumulative logit model, where the outcome variable represents the mild, severe, and extremely severe intensity of diseases like malaria and typhoid in the form of ...

Determinants of Knowledge and Usage of Generative Artificial Intelligence in Agricultural Extension: Evidence From Tennessee Extension Personnel

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the determinants of generative AI (GenAI) knowledge and usage among agricultural extension professionals. Drawing on survey data from agricultural extension personnel in Tennessee, we employ regression analyses and latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) for topic modeling of open‐ended responses to study the knowledge and usage ...

A flexible multivariate random effects proportional odds model with application to adverse effects during radiation therapy

open access: yes, 2016
Radiation therapy in patients with head and neck cancer has a toxic effect on mucosa, the soft tissue in and around the mouth. Hence mucositis is a serious common side effect and is a condition characterized by pain and inflammation of the surface of the

Regularized Proportional Odds Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The proportional odds model is commonly used in regression analysis to predict the outcome for an ordinal response variable. The maximum likelihood approach becomes unstable or even fails in small samples with relatively large number of predictors.

The Geography of Success: A Spatial Analysis of Export Intensity in the Italian Wine Industry

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the paradox of how Italy's fragmented, SME‐dominated wine industry achieves global export success. Moving beyond purely firm‐centric explanations, we test whether export intensity is spatially dependent, clustering geographically in regional ecosystems.

Development of a reoffending measure using the Police National Computer database. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This work aims to develop a reoffending score for assessing the likelihood of an offender reoffending within a certain fixed period of time. Currently, OGRS - the Offenders Group Reconviction Score - is a heavily used measure for assessing reconviction ...

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite the heightened mental health challenges amid rising Anti‐Asian sentiment, Asian Americans have significantly underutilized mental health services, a trend that persisted even before the COVID‐19 pandemic. Although considerable efforts have been made to understand how various factors are related to mental health service use in this ...

Binary and Ordinal Random Effects Models Including Variable Selection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A likelihood-based boosting approach for fitting binary and ordinal mixed models is presented. In contrast to common procedures it can be used in high-dimensional settings where a large number of potentially influential explanatory variables is available.

DNase1 RS1053874 Polymorphism is Associated with Early Neurological Recovery through NET Modulation and with Long‐Term Survival in Ischemic Stroke: A Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Immunothrombosis contributes to ischemic stroke pathophysiology through neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation, which promotes thrombus stabilization and microvascular dysfunction. DNase1 is the principal endonuclease responsible for NET degradation.
