Multilingual Sentence Embeddings for Linguistic-Integrated Reliability Audit
Ummugul Bezirhan, Ji Yoon Jung, Matthias von Davier
Multilingual assessment systems commonly rely on translation for scoring and quality-control processes. We evaluate whether multilingual sentence embeddings can replace translated…
Effective Degrees of Freedom for Balanced Repeated Replication and Paired Jackknife Variance Estimates: A Unified Approach via Stratum Contrasts
Matthias von Davier
Balanced repeated replication (BRR) and the jackknife are two widely used methods for estimating variances in stratified samples with two primary sampling units per stratum. While…
A Corrected Welch Satterthwaite Equation. And: What You Always Wanted to Know About Kish's Effective Sample but Were Afraid to Ask
Matthias von Davier
This article presents a corrected version of the Satterthwaite (1941, 1946) approximation for the degrees of freedom of a weighted sum of independent variance components. The origi…
An Improved Satterthwaite Effective Degrees of Freedom Correction for Weighted Syntheses of Variance
Matthias von Davier
This article presents an improved approximation for the effective degrees of freedom in the Satterthwaite (1941, 1946) method which estimates the distribution of a weighted combina…
