Testability is a quality factor used to predict the amount of effort required for software testing and to indicate the difficulty of revealing faults. This paper presents a quantitative testability analysis method for a software component that can be used when the source program is not available, but the bytecode is (as in Java .class files). This process analyzes the testability of each locati...

The basic idea underlying latent class (LC) analysis is a very simple one: some of the parameters of a postulated statistical model differ across unobserved subgroups. These subgroups form the categories of a categorical latent variable (see entry latent variable). This basic idea has several seemingly unrelated applications, the most important of which are clustering, scaling, density estimati...

Correct and, hence, valid classifications of individuals are of high importance in the social sciences as these classifications are the basis for diagnoses and/or the assignment to a treatment. The via regia to inspect the validity of psychological ratings is the multitrait-multimethod (MTMM) approach. First, a latent variable model for the analysis of rater agreement (latent rater agreement mo...

New extension of nanoparticles used in the last two decades and hence, entrance of them to industrialand non-industrial sewage necessitate study of probable effects of these materials in aquatic ecosystems.This research was performed in order to determine the toxicity effect of silica dioxide (SiO2</spa...
