چکیده

In this paper, we describe a software package called FlexCCT for analyzing numerical ratings data. FlexCCT is implemented in MATLAB and incorporates a range of different cultural consensus theory (CCT) models. We describe the standalone GUI version of FlexCCT. We give an illustrative example, showing how FlexCCT can be used to analyze and interpret essay rating data.

Comparison of Maximum Likelihood Estimation and Bayesian with Generalized Gibbs Sampling for Ordinal Regression Analysis of Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome

Background and Objectives: Analysis of ordinal data outcomes could lead to bias estimates and large variance in sparse one. The objective of this study is to compare parameter estimates of an ordinal regression model under maximum likelihood and Bayesian framework with generalized Gibbs sampling. The models were used to analyze ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome data.   Methods: This study use...

Boosting EM for Radiation Hybrid and Genetic Mapping

Radiation hybrid (RH) mapping is a somatic cell technique that is used for ordering markers along a chromosome and estimating physical distances between them. It nicely complements the genetic mapping technique, allowing for finer resolution. Like genetic mapping, RH mapping consists in finding a marker ordering that maximizes a given criteria. Several software packages have been recently propo...

Use of cultural consensus analysis to evaluate expert feedback of median safety.

Cultural consensus analysis is a statistical method that can be used to assess participant responses to survey questions. The technique concurrently estimates the knowledge of each survey participant and estimates the culturally correct answer to each question asked, based on the existence of consensus among survey participants. The main objectives of this paper are to present the cultural cons...

Transition Models for Analyzing Longitudinal Data with Bivariate Mixed Ordinal and Nominal Responses

In many longitudinal studies, nominal and ordinal mixed bivariate responses are measured. In these studies, the aim is to investigate the effects of explanatory variables on these time-related responses. A regression analysis for these types of data must allow for the correlation among responses during the time. To analyze such ordinal-nominal responses, using a proposed weighting approach, an ...

Multidimensional Successive Categories Scaling: a Maximum Likelihood Method

A single-step maximum likelihood estimation procedure is developed for multidimensional scaling of dissimilarity data measured on rating scales. The procedure can fit the euclidian distance model to the data under various assumptions about category widths and under two distributional assumptions. The scoring algorithm for parameter estimation has been developed and implemented in the form of a ...
