Identifying Risk Profiles of Malignant Prostate Cancer Surgical Delay Using a Person-Centered Approach to Understand Prostate Cancer Disparities: The Constellation of Health Determinants Using Latent Class Analysis on Cancer Registry Data

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Men's Health, 2020
Surgical prostate cancer (PCa) treatment delay (TD) may increase the likelihood of recurrence of disease, and influence quality of life as well as survival disparities between Black and White men.

Profiles on Adolescent Internet Addiction: A Taxonomy with Latent Profiling Analysis

open access: yesActa Médica Portuguesa, 2022
Introduction: Addictive use of the Internet among adolescents has been linked to a negative psychosocial development, but more detailed information about Internet addiction (IA) profiles is warranted. The aim of this study was to identify IA profiles in

Are profile likelihoods likelihoods? No, but sometimes they can be

open access: yes, 2019
We offer our two cents to the ongoing discussion on whether profile likelihoods are "true" likelihood functions, by showing that the profile likelihood function can in fact be identical to a marginal likelihood in the special case of normal models.

Profiles of learners based on their cognitive and metacognitive learning strategy use: occurrence and relations with gender, intrinsic motivation, and perceived autonomy support

open access: yesHumanities & Social Sciences Communications, 2022
For life-long learning, an effective learning strategy repertoire is particularly important during acquisition of knowledge in lower secondary school—an educational level characterized with transition into more autonomous learning environments with ...

Cover your bases: asymptotic distributions of the profile likelihood ratio when constraining effective field theories in high-energy physics

open access: yesSciPost Physics Core, 2023
We investigate the asymptotic distribution of the profile likelihood ratio (PLR) when constraining effective field theories (EFTs) and show that Wilks' theorem is often violated, meaning that we should not assume the PLR to follow a $\chi^2$-distribution.

Constraints on Lorentz Invariance Violation from Gamma-Ray Burst Rest-Frame Spectral Lags Using Profile Likelihood

open access: yesUniverse
We reanalyze the spectral lag data for 56 Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) in the cosmological rest frame to search for Lorentz Invariance Violation (LIV) using frequentist inference.

Adjusted Versions of Profile Likelihood and Directed Likelihood, and Extended Likelihood

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 1994
SUMMARY Several adjusted and invariant versions of profile likelihood and of directed likelihood (short for signed log-likelihood ratio) are discussed. These adjusted versions, which fall into two groups, are closely related to modified profile likelihood and modified directed likelihood.

Improving soil moisture profile reconstruction from ground-penetrating radar data: a maximum likelihood ensemble filter approach [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2013
The vertical profile of shallow unsaturated zone soil moisture plays a key role in many hydro-meteorological and agricultural applications. We propose a closed-loop data assimilation procedure based on the maximum likelihood ensemble filter algorithm to ...

Information Bias and Adjusted Profile Likelihoods

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 1996
SUMMARY The bias and information bias of the ordinary profile score statistic are both typically of order O(1). Several additive adjustments to the profile score statistic that reduce its bias to order O(n  −1) have been proposed. In certain situations, the information bias of these adjusted profile score statistics is also reduced to ...
