Convergence of Energy Intensity Across ASEAN‐5 Countries: A Wavelet‐Based Perspective

Natural Resources Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The convergence hypothesis, which emphasizes the attainment of income equality among nations, has recently gained prominence in energy studies due to its pivotal role in addressing the pressing challenges at the intersection of economic development and energy sustainability.

Flexible unimodal density estimation in hidden Markov models

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Hidden Markov models (HMMs) are powerful tools for modelling time‐series data with underlying state structure. However, selecting appropriate parametric forms for the state‐dependent distributions is often challenging and can lead to model misspecification.

A comparison of clustering approaches to create sites for occupancy models from opportunistic biodiversity surveys

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Opportunistic surveys, such as those archived by citizen science biodiversity inventory programs, can provide species observations over large spans of space and time. Like most biodiversity data, opportunistic reports suffer from imperfect detection of organisms, which can distort species distribution models used for science and natural ...

Differential item functioning detection across multiple groups

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Differential item functioning (DIF) can be investigated by estimating item response theory (IRT) parameters separately for different respondent groups, thus allowing for the detection of discrepancies in parameter estimates across groups. However, before comparing the estimates, it is necessary to convert them to a common metric due to the ...

Composite marginal likelihood estimation of higher‐order diagnostic classification models under high dimensionality

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Although full‐information maximum likelihood (FIML) estimation is widely used for diagnostic classification models (DCMs), its computational efficiency deteriorates sharply in high‐dimensional settings. This scalability challenge is increasingly critical as DCMs are applied to large‐scale assessments, psychological testing and longitudinal ...

Revisiting reliability and measurement precision: Towards a unified perspective

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract This article revisits the concepts of reliability and measurement precision across classical test theory (CTT), item response theory (IRT) and cognitive diagnosis models (CDMs), emphasizing their conceptual differences and proposing a unified framework.
