Although research investigating doping in sport is burgeoning, there is still a lack of proxy measures of doping behaviour that have undergone extensive psychometric testing. To address this issue, we modified a previously used measure of doping willingness in sport and tested aspects of validity and...
As such, another significant contribution of this study was to investigate whether the AEQ-PE-C maintained the same meaning and underlying structure across various groups, including gender and grade level. The study results indicate that the AEQ-PE-C exhibits gender measurement invariance, which was...
The EDiSDI cannot yet be used to infer real group differences without determining whether its component constructs have an equivalent meaning across groups of interest (Milfont & Fischer, 2010). Moreover, without measurement invariance the EDiSDI cannot be used reliably to assess the effectiveness ...
As clinicians are usually interested in clinically meaning- ful change, minimal detectable change (i.e., change that is beyond normal within-individual variability in behaviour and the measurement error and can be interpreted as real change for an individual [24]) should be lower than mini- mal...
(e.g., author names, study title, publication year, journal) to avoid bias in their quality assessment. Initially, both raters evaluated two articles, after which they met to discuss each item to clarify their meaning and interpretation. The same process was repeated for each subsequent block ...
If the code ({value}) is present in the unique codebook-when even if the text may differ but it conveys pretty much the same meaning—the model will return the string ‘true’. If the model returns ‘true’ then it means the code already is in the codebook, otherwise the model will ...
As such, another significant contribution of this study was to investigate whether the AEQ-PE-C maintained the same meaning and underlying structure across various groups, includ- ing gender and grade level. The study results indicate that the AEQ-PE-C exhibits gender measurement invari- ance, ...
Table 2 presents the complimentary analysis for the results obtained in the Balnd Altmann analysis. The results of the t test against the null value (meaning zero as difference) showed that the mean difference between the Standard measures and the Evaulators analysis are not significantly different...
Measurements were performed by two investigators in a blinded manner, meaning that examiners were not aware of the stiffness parameters of each gel pad. For the Shore Durometer, the average of five consecutive measurements was used for data analysis33. Taken measurements were converted to Young...
Following the translation, it was not assumed that the meaning of the items within the Osteo-TAQfr and the original grounded theory upon which it is based would be directly transferable to French osteopathic practice. This caution was due to differences in sociocultural and healthcare contexts [...
