Two Classes of Models for Magnitude Estimation
One class of models assumes that presentation of a signal results in an internal representation as a random variable. Depending on whether the signal is close to or far from the preceding signal, the variance of the representation is smaller or larger. Responses are determined largely by this random variable; however, when the signal is close to the preceding one, the response is generated by m...
متن کاملTwo-step estimation of panel data models with censored endogenous variables and selection bias
This paper presents some two-step estimators for a wide range of parametric panel data models with censored endogenous variables and sample selection bias. Our approach is to derive estimates of the unobserved heterogeneity responsible for the endogeneity/selection bias to include as additional explanatory variables in the primary equation. These are obtained through a decomposition of the redu...
متن کاملThree-step estimation of latent Markov models with covariates
We propose a modified version of the three-step estimation method for the latent class model with covariates, which may be used to estimate a latent Markov (LM) model with individual covariates and possible dropout. We illustrate the proposed approach through an application finalized to the study of the health status of elderly people hosted in Italian nursing homes. This application is based o...
متن کاملOne-Step and Two-Step Estimation of the Effects of Exogenous Variables on Technical Efficiency Levels
Consider a stochastic frontier model with one-sided inefficiency u, and suppose that the scale of u depends on some variables (firm characteristics) z. A “one-step” model specifies both the stochastic frontier and the way in which u depends on z, and can be estimated in a single step, for example by maximum likelihood. This is in contrast to a “two-step” procedure, where the first step is to es...
متن کاملThe Comparison of Two Models for Evaluation of Pre-internship Comprehensive Test: Classical and Latent Trait
Introduction: Despite the widespread use of pre-internship comprehensive test and its importance in medical students’ assessment, there is a paucity of the studies that can provide a systematic psychometric analysis of the items of this test. Thus, the present study sought to assess March 2011 pre-internship test using classical and latent trait models and compare their results. Methods: In th...
