The psychometric properties of the Competency Interview Schedule.
TL;DR: The instrument was internally consistent and discriminated between individuals found competent and incompetent by the treating physician, and test-retest and interrater reliability results were good.
Journal ArticleDOI
Forced classification: A simple application of a quantification method
TL;DR: In this paper, the principle of equivalent partitioning (PEP) is used together with Guttman's principle of internal consistency (PIC) in a simple way, and the combination offers an interesting way of analyzing categorical data in terms of the variate(s) chosen by the investigator, a type of canonical analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nonlinear programming approach to optimal scaling of partially ordered categories
Shizuhiko Nishisato,P. S. Arri +1 more
TL;DR: A modified technique of separable programming was used to maximize the squared correlation ratio of weighted responses to partially ordered categories.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gleaning in the field of dual scaling
TL;DR: How much more needs to be clarified for routine use of dual scaling and similar quantification methods to arrive at valid conclusions is demonstrated.
