Library and information science (LIS) research is becoming more quantitative. However, statistics is not extensively taught within LIS research methods courses, and statistics courses are uncommon within LIS programs. Previous research on statistics in LIS revealed that researchers have mainly relied on descriptive statistics in publications. This…

Gelman, Andrew – Grantee Submission, 2022
I discuss a published paper in political science that made a claim that aroused skepticism. The reanalysis is an example of how we, as consumers as well as producers of science, can engage with published work. This can be viewed as a sort of collaboration performed implicitly between the authors of a published paper and later researchers who want…

Cashing, Doug – Teaching Statistics: An International Journal for Teachers, 2018
This article offers some less-than-rigorous explanations for the notion of degrees of freedom, and for the particular formulae to be used when computing those values.

Courtney, Matthew G. R.; Chang, Kevin C. – Teaching Statistics: An International Journal for Teachers, 2018
The article presents some notes on normalization and illustrates these procedures using graphing functions in R. Using real data, the paper also presents an R package and online Shiny app that efficiently transforms variables in large datasets.

Objective: This study examined relationships between eating disorder risk (EDR), lifestyle variables (e.g., exposure to healthy eating media), and differences among male and female college students. Participants: College students (N = 323) completed survey questionnaires (Fall, 2016). Fifty-three participants retook the survey at a later time.…

Acevedo, Fernando – Journal of Education and Learning (EduLearn), 2023
In the last 40 years in much of the western world dropout rates in higher education have remained almost unchanged. Although student retention seems to be the most studied and discussed aspect, nearly every empirical study on the causes of dropout in higher education and even more the impact of retention actions carried out by universities, in…

Luo, Jiaorong; Yang, Mingcheng; Wang, Ling – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
The increased Simon effect with increasing the ratio of congruent trials may be interpreted by both attention modulation and irrelevant stimulus-response (S-R) associations learning accounts, although the reversed Simon effect with increasing the ratio of incongruent trials provides evidence supporting the latter account. To investigate if…

De Jesus Alvares Mendes Junior, Isaias; Alves, Maria Do Céu – Cogent Education, 2023
Several studies with quantitative, qualitative or theoretical approaches have been carried out, focusing on the application of the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) in the educational sector. However, despite the literature on the subject, it is difficult to draw an overview of the use of the BSC in this sector. In order to fill this gap, our research…

Xiao, Leifeng; Hau, Kit-Tai – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2023
We examined the performance of coefficient alpha and its potential competitors (ordinal alpha, omega total, Revelle's omega total [omega RT], omega hierarchical [omega h], greatest lower bound [GLB], and coefficient "H") with continuous and discrete data having different types of non-normality. Results showed the estimation bias was…

Lorette, Pernelle – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2023
Quantitative social scientists have adopted the positivist epistemology and methodology of natural sciences, seeking objectivity, generalisability, and neutrality. However, in social sciences -- unlike in natural sciences -- humans are both the investigators and the object of investigation, leading to intricate interconnections between researchers…

Philip Ezekiel Dakwo; Yagmur Cerkez; Engin Baysen – SAGE Open, 2023
Every sport requires players to practice constantly to develop skills and the zeal to become a perfect player increases based on the players' anxiety-performance level. This makes humor styles of players a significant counterweight to the severity associated with anxiety-performance in basketball learning practices. As a result, the study aimed to…

Mathematics anxiety (MA) has a debilitating impact on learning, achievement, mental health, and the future career life of students. Though MA is a popular research theme, there is little agreement among researchers regarding the cross-cultural effect of gender. The purpose of this paper was to explore the perceived MA differences among males and…
