Variational Estimation for Multidimensional Generalized Partial Credit Model
PsychometrikaMultidimensional item response theory (MIRT) models have generated increasing interest in the psychometrics literature. Efficient approaches for estimating MIRT models with dichotomous responses have been developed, but constructing an equally efficient and robust algorithm for polytomous models has received limited attention. To address this gap, this

Behavioral Coping With Food Price Inflation: Patterns Among U.S. Households
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Recent food price inflation has placed substantial pressure on household budgets, food security, and mental well‐being. Using Household Pulse Survey data, we combine k‐modes clustering and Double Machine Learning to identify distinct household coping groups and examine differences in how households respond to rising food prices across groups ...

The Ordered artition Model: An Extension of the Partial Credit Model [PDF]
Applied Psychological Measurement, 1992 An item response model, called the ordered.partition model, is designed for a measurement context in which the categories of response to an item cannot be completely ordered. For example, two different solution strategies may lead to an equivalent degree of success because both strategies may result in the same score, but an examiner may want to ...

Extension Economists: Valued in Mission, Penalized in Practice
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT As the public engagement arm of the land‐grant mission, we argue that Extension faculty in US agricultural economics departments face an identity crossroads as they struggle for institutional support. Specifically, we argue that Extension economists function as boundary‐spanning professionals within academic structures that often devalue ...

Actuarial Applications and Estimation of Extended CreditRisk+
Risks, 2017 We introduce an additive stochastic mortality model which allows joint modelling and forecasting of underlying death causes. Parameter families for mortality trends can be chosen freely. As model settings become high dimensional, Markov chain Monte Carlo
