Conditioning on the pre-test versus gain score modeling: revisiting the controversy in a multilevel setting
Bruno Arpino, Silvia Bacci, Leonardo Grilli +2
We consider estimating the effect of a treatment on the progress of subjects tested both before and after treatment assignment. A vast literature compares the competing approaches…
Evaluation of student proficiency through a multidimensional finite mixture IRT model
Silvia Bacci, Francesco Bartolucci, Leonardo Grilli +1
In certain academic systems, a student can enroll for an exam immediately after the end of the teaching period or can postpone it to any later examination session, so that the grad…
A multidimensional latent class IRT model for non-ignorable missing responses
Silvia Bacci, Francesco Bartolucci
We propose a structural equation model, which reduces to a multidimensional latent class item response theory model, for the analysis of binary item responses with non-ignorable mi…
A causal analysis of mother's education on birth inequalities
Silvia Bacci, Francesco Bartolucci, Luca Pieroni
We propose a causal analysis of the mother's educational level on the health status of the newborn, in terms of gestational weeks and weight. The analysis is based on a finite mixt…
A comparison of some criteria for states selection in the latent Markov model for longitudinal data
Silvia Bacci, Silvia Pandolfi, Fulvia Pennoni
We compare different selection criteria to choose the number of latent states of a multivariate latent Markov model for longitudinal data. This model is based on an underlying Mark…
A multidimensional latent class Rasch model for the assessment of the Health-related Quality of Life
Silvia Bacci, Francesco Bartolucci
The work describes a multidimensional latent class Rasch model and its application to data about the measurement of some aspects of Health-related Quality of Life and Anxiety and D…
