8. Bayesian networks for complementing and building gender equality composite indicators

Paola Vicard (University Roma Tre)

Second Session

Composite indicators are a common choice for synthesizing complex phenomena. Over the years, they have grown in popularity and are now applied in many social and environmental sciences. Among others, a subject of increasing interest is gender equality analysis. Gender composite indicators, even if easy to read, may provide a limited picture of the problem. Here we discuss the potentiality of...

6. A structural equation model to integrate item responses, response times and item positioning in students' ability assessment

Second Session

In the context of students' ability assessment, considering collateral information in addition to item responses can be helpful in increasing the accuracy of the measurement. In this vein, the evaluation of students' abilities via computer based-devices has made response time data available at the item level (Wang et al., 2019). Besides, the literature (Becker et al., 2022) has highlighted an...

5. A model-robust subsampling approach in presence of outliers

Second Session

In the era of big data, several sampling approaches are proposed to reduce costs (and time) and to help in informed decision making. Some of these proposals (Drovandi et al., 2017; Wang et al., 2019; Deldossi and Tommasi (2022) among others) are inspired to Optimal Experimental Design and require the specification of a model for the big dataset.
This model assumption, as well as the possible...
