571,95 kr. For social scientists, it is often confusing how to determine when missing data is a problem in analyses and how to handle it. This book presents a comprehensive overview of the available methods, focusing on which method should be used for specific problems. It features numerous real and simulated data examples to illustrate how the methods can be applied once the appropriate technique has been determined. It also includes exercises, computer-based problems, and suggestions for further reading. R code and the data sets are available on the book¿s website.

1.137,95 kr. This book presents a unified Bayesian approach across traditionally separate families of psychometric models. It shows that Bayesian techniques, as alternatives to conventional approaches, offer distinct and profound advantages in achieving many goals of psychometrics. The book covers foundational principles and statistical models as well as popular psychometric models. Throughout the text, procedures are illustrated using examples primarily from educational assessments. A supplementary website provides the datasets, WinBUGS code, R code, and Netica files used in the examples.

- Approaches and Analyses with Aggregate Data
1.011,95 kr. This book presents an introduction to the problems and strategies for modeling age, period, and cohort (APC) effects for aggregate-level data. These strategies include constrained estimation, the use of age and/or period and/or cohort characteristics, estimable functions, variance decomposition, and a new technique called the s-constraint approach. Emphasizing both the geometry and algebra of several APC approaches, the book develops readers¿ understanding of the statistical issues of APC analysis and shows how common methods are related to each other.

1.895,95 kr. Exploring the theory and applications of latent Markov modeling in a common conceptual framework, this book presents a nontechnical overview of latent Markov models and their potential in socio-economic applications. The statistical approach of the text emphasizes inference and the use of models in applications. The book first describes the latent Markov model proposed by Wiggins, taking into account other models in the field, such as latent transition analysis and hidden Markov analysis. The authors then lead readers to the possibility of implementing, using, and calibrating the latest developments. They also provide ad hoc MATLABA(R) routines for fitting the proposed models.

- Theory and Applications
1.363,95 kr. Unlike other forms of adaptive testing, multistage testing (MST) is highly suitable for testing educational achievement because it can be adapted to educational surveys and student testing. This volume provides the first unified source of information on the design, psychometrics, implementation, and operational use of MST. It shows how to apply theoretical statistical tools to testing in novel and useful ways. It also explains how to explicitly tie the assumptions made by each model to observable (or at least inferable) data conditions.
