Structural equation models and the regression bias for measuring correlates of change
(Sage, 2000-12)
ANCOVA and regression both exhibit a directional bias when measuring correlates of change. This bias confounds the comparison of changes between naturally occurring groups with large pretest differences (ANCOVA), or for ...
Controlling the rate of Type I error over a large set of statistical tests
(Wiley, 2002-05)
When many tests of significance are examined in a research investigation with procedures that limit the probability of making at least one Type I error—the so‐called familywise techniques of control—the likelihood of ...
Recommendations for applying tests of equivalence
(Wiley, 2004)
Researchers in psychology reliably select traditional null hypothesis significance tests (e.g., Student's t test), regardless of whether the research hypothesis relates to whether the group means are equivalent or whether ...
Improving accuracy of veracity judgment through cue training
(Sage, 2004)
The ability to make judgments of veracity was investigated to see if training individuals on visual, vocal, or verbal content cues of deception would increase their ability to judge whether a message was truthful. The ...
Longitudinal analysis of the relationship between changes in smoking and changes in drinking in a community sample: The Winnipeg Health and Drinking Survey.
(American Psychological Association, 2002-05)
Smoking cigarettes and drinking alcohol are positively correlated in cross-sectional studies of the general population. However, it is unclear whether changes in quantity of drinking over time are related to changes in ...
Gender differences and quality of life in atrial fibrillation: The mediating role of depression
(Elsevier, 2006)
Objective
This study investigated gender differences, depression, and health-related quality of life (QoL) in a cross-sectional sample of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF).
Methods
This cross-sectional study ...
Decreases in posttest variance and the measurement of change
(American Psychological Association, 2004)
A Monte Carlo study was used to evaluate the effects of reductions in posttest variance on several methods for detecting predictors of change in a two-wave design. When the predictor was dichotomous, the analysis of ...
Pairwise multiple comparisons: A model comparisons approach versus stepwise procedures
(Wiley, 2003-05)
Researchers in the behavioural sciences have been presented with a host of pairwise multiple comparison procedures that attempt to obtain an optimal combination of Type I error control, power, and ease of application. ...
Repeated measures ANOVA: some new results on comparing trimmed means and means
(Wiley, 2000-05)
This paper considers the common problem of testing the equality of means in a repeated measures design. Recent results indicate that practical problems can arise when computing confidence intervals for all pairwise differences ...
Pairwise multiple comparison test procedures: An update for Clinical Child and Adolescent Psychologists
(Taylor & Francis, 2004)
Locating pairwise differences among treatment groups is a common practice of applied researchers. Articles published in this journal have addressed the issue of statistical inference within the context of an analysis of ...
