Assessing rating scale dimensionality through bifactor model-based indices in R workshop

Join our workshop on Assessing rating scale dimensionality through bifactor model-based indices in R, which is a part of our workshops for Ukraine series! 


Here’s some more info: 

Title: Assessing rating scale dimensionality through bifactor model-based indices in R

Date: Thursday, May 15th, 18:00 – 20:00 CET (Rome, Berlin, Paris timezone)

Speaker: Tony Roberson, PhD, LP, LSSP is a child psychologist and assistant professor in the doctoral Health Service Psychology program and the Specialist in School Psychology program at the University of Houston-Clear Lake. He teaches graduate courses on research methods, quantitative data analysis, psychological measurement, and applied assessment and intervention for psychologists in training. His primary research interests concern the refinement of positively oriented mental and behavioral health screeners for youth in the school context.

Description: In this workshop, we will explore how to determine when it is justifiable to interpret behavior rating scale scores from (1) an overall general factor, (2) group factors (i.e., subscales), or (3) a combination of both through an array of model-based statistical indices derived from bifactor latent measurement models (e.g., omega hierarchical, relative parameter bias, percent uncontaminated correlations). The focus will be on practical demonstration and practice deriving and interpreting such indices in R using the lavaan and BifactorIndicesCalculator packages.

Minimal registration fee: 20 euro (or 20 USD or 800 UAH)

Description:  This talk will explore the validation and visualization of spatio-temporal data in sports, focusing on the NFL tracking dataset and the application of frame-by-frame modeling. After a brief introduction to spatio-temporal data and its significance, we’ll highlight common errors in tracking datasets, such as missing data and implausible trajectories, emphasizing the importance of validation. The session will delve into the capabilities of gganimate, showcasing how it transforms static plots into dynamic animations to validate data and enhance storytelling. We’ll provide an overview of the NFL tracking dataset, its structure, and key challenges like data noise and synchronization issues. Through step-by-step examples, participants will learn to build animations that visualize player movements, pass probabilities, and pass rush models, while using  techniques to identify anomalies and combine multiple data sources.

Speaker: Xiaolei (Adam) Wang is an Economics PhD student at the University of Melbourne, his research focuses on Bayesian econometrics. He is the author of the R package bsvarSIGNs, which implements algorithms for macroeconomic analyses with C++ code.

Description: Structural Vector Autoregressions (SVARs) are multivariate time series models commonly used in empirical macroeconomics. By imposing a minimal set of assumptions, such as sign restrictions, these models allow us to recover meaningful economic shocks and their dynamic causal effects from real data. This workshop will provide a gentle introduction to SVARs and their estimation techniques. Then, we will show how to apply these models with a simple workflow using the R package “bsvarSIGNs”. No prior knowledge of macroeconomics is required, any R user interested in analysing macro data can benefit from this workshop.
