Geographically Weighted Cronbach's Alpha (GWalpha): An Exploratory Local Measure of Reliability for Scale Construction

open access: yesGeographical Analysis, Volume 57, Issue 4, Page 758-772, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Scales, as survey instruments, are crucial for investigating people's attitudes and behaviors in social science research. Cronbach's alpha is the most frequently used measure of internal consistency reliability for multi‐item survey scales. Affected by the spatial context of respondents' locations, the reliability of responses to a scale may ...

Expertise‐inspired artificial intelligence pipeline for clinically applicable reconstruction of tooth‐centric radial planes: Development and multicenter validation

open access: yesBMEMat, Volume 3, Issue 3, September 2025.
The expertise‐inspired AI pipeline demonstrates significant clinical utility for rapid and precise analysis of dento‐maxillofafcial CBCT and benefits for intelligent oral health management. Abstract Owing to the tooth‐centered nature of most oral diseases, the tooth‐centric radial plane of cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT) depicts the anatomical and

Keys to successful scientific VGI projects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Scientific projects are increasingly using volunteered geographic information (VGI) in order to collect and validate geographic data. This concept relies on the three challenges that first of all users can be found and second be convinced to collaborate and contribute and that scientists finally are able to gather high quality data ...
