Strategies for Creating a Bilingual Legal Dictionary
This paper explores the strategies that should be employed when processing legal terminology in a bilingual legal dictionary. The viability of a bilingual law system depends on the consistent use of standardized Chinese terms in courts and their ease of use by general users. Semantic equivalence of a term, however, is not achieved through a literal translation of an English term, and how a term is defined in both statute law and case law must als…
Comparison of Approaches in Estimating Interaction and Quadratic Effects of Latent Variables
Various approaches using the maximum likelihood (ML) option of the LISREL program and products of indicators have been proposed to analyze structural equation models with non-linear latent effects on the basis of Kenny and Judd's formulation. Recently, some methods based on the Bayesian approach and the exact ML approaches have been developed. This article reviews, elaborates and compares several approaches for analyzing nonlinear models with int…
Influence Measures in Contingency Tables With Application in Sampling Zeros
Based on the local influence approach with an appropriate perturbation scheme, measures are developed to assess the influence of an individual cell in contingency tables. The authors demonstrate that the developed measures are particularly suitable for sensitivity analysis in tables with sampling zeros. The independence model and the log-linear model, together with numerical examples, are presented for illustration
Multisample Analysis of Multivariate Ordinal Categorical Variables
We study a multiple group model with ordinal categorical observed variables that are manifestations of underlying normal variables. When the objective of an analysis is to compare the locations and dispersions of the underlying continuous variables in different groups, traditional approaches use exact linear constraints on thresholds across groups to identify the model. Though the resultant model facilitates interpretation in multiple group analy…
