Affective lability is a central feature of several emotional disturbances and linked to aggressive risky behaviors. This study aimed analyze the psychometric properties Lability Scale-18 (ALS-18) among community sample justice-involved adults. We also test measurement invariance between sex type. Results revealed good excellent values internal consistency. Confirmatory factor analysis indicated...

The Emotion Regulation of Others and Self Scale (EROS) is commonly used to measure individual differences in the use strategies regulate one’s own other people’s emotions. This study aimed examine its psychometric properties measurement invariance across sex a Portuguese clinical sample. For this purpose, we tested factorial structure EROS sample 390 adults (259 women; Mage = 34.33; SD 9.99) un...

In the current study, appropriateness of Mathematics Attitude Questionnaire administered to middle school 8th grade students in TIMSS 2015 application exploratory structural equation and confirmatory factor analysis models was examined. The study conducted on 6079 making up sample Turkey. application, attitude items are presented under four headings called students’ interest mathematics, views ...

METHOD: Participants were 142 married couples which 1 spouse reported musculoskeletal Confirmatory analyses used compare 4 models catastrophizing, examine invariance PCS-Patient PCS-Significant ot...

Camouflaging behavior is often defined as using strategies to hide autistic characteristics. In this study, we investigated how measure camouflaging by performing a conceptual replication of the original study Autistic Traits Questionnaire (CAT-Q) and testing whether self-reported measuring same construct second most used manner behavior, discrepancy method. total, 674 individuals (356 autistic...

A closed-form multi-dimensional multi-invariance generalization of the ESPRIT algorithm is introduced to exploit the entire invariance structure underlying a (possibly) multiparametric data model, thereby greatly improving estimation performance. The multiple-invariance data structure that this proposed method can handle includes: (1) multiple occurrence of one size of invariance along one or m...

Measurement invariance (MI) has been developed in a very technical language and manner that is generally not widely accessible to social and behavioral researchers and applied measurement specialists. Primarily relying on the widely known concepts in regression and linear statistical modeling, this paper decoded the concept of MI in the context of factor analysis. The paper began by describing ...

‎The water wave generation by wave paddle and a freely falling rigid body are examined by using an Incompressible Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (ISPH)‎. ‎In the current ISPH method‎, ‎the pressure was evaluated by solving pressure Poisson equation using a semi-implicit algorithm based on the projection scheme and the source term of pressure Poisson equation contains both of divergence free ve...
