What if we want to test for similarities between groups, rather than differences? Equivalence testing techniques for corpus linguistics
Tests in the null hypothesis significance testing (nhst) framework are designed to identify differences between groups. Thus, researchers wishing to assess similarities are out of luck if they use widespread techniques in the field, such as t-tests, chi-square tests and linear regression. This is unfortunate given that researchers with many common study designs would benefit from knowing whether there is no difference – or at least no practical d…

Quantitive Methods in the Social and Behavioral Sciences
Performance of Bootstrapping Approaches to Model Test Statistics and Parameter Standard Error Estimation in Structural Equation Modeling
Though the common default maximum likelihood estimator used in structural equation modeling is predicated on the assumption of multivariate normality, applied researchers often find themselves with data clearly violating this assumption and without sufficient sample size to utilize distribution-free estimation methods. Fortunately, promising alternatives are being integrated into popular software packages. Bootstrap resampling, which is offered i…
Manipulations of Evaluative Rating Scales to Increase Validity
Standard five-point rating scales often do not allow raters to capture perceived differences between objects or individuals within a relatively narrow band of the evaluative dimension. In the frequency domain, using a longer rating scale or packing the rating scale with labels from a particular portion of the dimension of interest have both been shown by Hancock and Klockars in 1991 to increase rating validity for differentiating among a narrow r…
