Using Heteroskedasticity-Consistent Standard Errors and the Bootstrap for Linear Regression Analysis Available in SPSS
In the landscape of statistical software, from customizable programming-language-based to point-and-click systems, SPSS remains a popular choice among researchers. In SPSS, analyses with conventional methods, such as ordinary least squares regression, can be easily performed. However, violated assumptions, such as homoskedasticity or normality of the errors, can lead to altered Type I error rates or a reduction in statistical power. SPSS provides…
Intelligence, creativity, and cognitive control
Intelligence and creativity are known to be correlated constructs suggesting that they share a common cognitive basis. The present study assessed three specific executive abilities - updating, shifting, and inhibition - and examined their common and differential relations to fluid intelligence and creativity (i.e., divergent thinking ability) within a latent variable model approach. Additionally, it was tested whether the correlation of fluid int…
Statistics anxiety, state anxiety during an examination, and academic achievement
BackgroundA large proportion of students identify statistics courses as the most anxiety-inducing courses in their curriculum. Many students feel impaired by feelings of state anxiety in the examination and therefore probably show lower achievements.AimsThe study investigates how statistics anxiety, attitudes (e.g., interest, mathematical self-concept) and trait anxiety, as a general disposition to anxiety, influence experiences of anxiety as wel…
An Algorithm for Testing Unidimensionality and Clustering Items in Rasch Measurement
A new approach to identify item clusters fitting the Rasch model is described and evaluated using simulated and real data. The proposed method is based on hierarchical cluster analysis and constructs clusters of items that show a good fit to the Rasch model. It thus gives an estimate of the number of independent scales satisfying the postulates of sufficiency of total number of correctly answered items for a person’s proficiency, unidimensionalit…
Using Automatic Item Generation to Simultaneously Construct German and English Versions of a Word Fluency Test
There has been an increased interest in psychometric tests that enable the comparison of test scores across different language versions. From a psychometric point of view, this endeavor requires empirical evidence on the full score equivalence of these measures. However, this aim is often rather difficult to achieve. This is particularly true for the assessment of verbal abilities. In the present article, we will outline how automatic item genera…
Dimensionality and Construct Validity of a Video-Based, Objective Personality Test for the Assessment of Willingness to Take Risks in Road Traffic
The study at hand reports first results about the dimensionality and construct validity of a newly developed objective, video-based personality test, which assesses the willingness to take risks in traffic situations. On the basis of the theory of risk homeostasis developed by Wilde, different traffic situations with varying amounts of objective danger were filmed. These situations mainly consisted of situations with passing maneuvers and speed c…
