Abstract:
The Rasch sampler is an efficient algorithm to sample binary matrices with given marginal sums. It is a Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm. The program can handle matrices of up to 1024 rows and 64 columns. A special option allows to sample square matrices with given marginals and fixed main diagonal, a problem prominent in social network analysis. In all cases the stationary distribution is uniform. The user has control on the serial dependency. (authors' abstract)

Abstract:
The importance of valid and reliable couple assessment has been increasing with growth in research on couple and family relationships as well as in therapeutic and educational interventions for couples and families. However, self-report instruments–the most popular type of couple assessment–have been criticized at least partly due to limitations in Classical Test Theory (CTT) which has been used solely in developing and evaluating couple assessments for decades. In an effort to address the limitations in the sole use of CTT in developing self-report couple assessments, the present study integr

Abstract:
Satisfaction is a central concept in marketing. However in recent years, satisfaction has come under increasing criticism. Its ability to predict post-purchase behaviour has not been established and the importance of the word satisfaction to consumers has been questioned. Current satisfaction measures are inadequate, as they fail to discriminate between respondents, with the majority of respondents regularly endorsing the most positive answer category available. The limited discrimination of existing scales suggests that only a small part of the unfavourable/favourable evaluation, rather than

One of the most important task for epidemiologists, biologists, ecologists and sociologists is to analyse and forecast possible changes and dynamics in a population. Capture-recapture experiments may be used to obtain meaningful information from population under study. The rational behind this method is to account for unobserved individuals by using observed individual trapping histories. A central assumption in traditional capture-recapture approach is the homogeneity of the capture probability.

In the present paper systematic numerical studies of the accuracy of the approximations given in Strasser [1] and [2] are presented.

Abstract:
The simplicity and ease of use of the Rasch procedure is a decided advantage. The test user needs only two numbers: the frequency of persons who answered each item correctly and the Rasch-calibrated item difficulty, usually a part of an existing item bank. Norms can be computed quickly for any specific group of interest. In addition, once the selected items from the calibrated bank are normed, any test, built from the item bank, is automatically norm-referenced. Thus, it was concluded that the Rasch quick norm procedure is a meaningful alternative to traditional classical true score norming fo

Patient reported outcomes are poorly understood, and the literature is inconclusive about their clinical significance3, 4.

The results from two experiments showed quite conclusively that the corrected scores from five Yes/No tests were unreliable as measures of vocabulary size.

Rating scales involving more than two response categories are a popular response format in measurement in education, health and business sciences. Their primary purpose lies in the increase of information and thus measurement precision. For these objectives to be met, the response scale has to provide valid scores with higher numbers reflecting more of the property to be measured. Thus, the response scale is closely linked to construct validity since any kind of malfunctioning would jeopardize measurement.

Abstract:
The purpose of this paper is to generalize regression models for repeated categorical data based on maximizing a conditional likelihood. Some existing methods, such as those proposed by Duncan (1985), Fischer (1989), and Agresti (1993, and 1997) are special cases of this latent variable approach, used to account for dependencies in clustered observations. The generalization concerns the incorporation of rather general data structures such as subject-specific time-dependent covariates, a variable number of observations per subject and time periods of arbitrary length in order to evaluate treatm

Abstract:
Changes in the process of teaching and learning can be both useful and nonuseful to enhance students learning. This work tried to show that current teaching methods not always meet the needs efficiently when it comes to improve students skills. For that, it relied on experiments with Language Programming subject matter s students. It did so because such a subject matter poses questions whose answers can be answered freely because its codes can be written in many ways , while its assessment is dichotomic. Teacher s didactic procedures, methodology applied in classes, programming language, a

Abstract:
Objetivo: Este estudo avalia a estrutura do IDATE (Inventário de Ansiedade Traço-Estado) utilizando a análise psicométrica de Rasch, propondo-se ao refinamento e redução do instrumento. Métodos: Consiste em estudo transversal em amostra de 900 pacientes em perioperatório de cirurgias eletivas, com idade variando de 18 a 60 anos e ASA I-III. Informações demográficas foram coletadas empregando-se um questionário estruturado. O instrumento de mensuração IDATE foi aplicado na tarde que antecedia a cirurgia, antes da sedação pré-operatória. Resultados: As escalas de estado e traço de ansiedade fora
