title: Evaluating the appropriateness and use of domain critical errors
Creators: name: Buckendahl, C. W.
name: Davis-Becker, S. L.
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2012

description: The consequences associated with the uses and interpretations of scores for many credentialing testing programs have important implications for a range of stakeholders. Within licensure settings specifically, results from examination programs are often one of the final steps in the process of assessing whether individuals will be allowed to enter practice. This article focuses on the concept of domain critical errors and suggests a framework for considering their use in practice. Domain critical errors are defined here as knowledge, skills, abilities, or judgments that are essential to the definition of minimum qualifications in a testing program's pass-fail decision-making process. Using domain critical errors has psychometric and policy implications, particularly for licensure programs that are mandatory for entry-level practice. Because these errors greatly influence pass-fail decisions, the measurement community faces an ongoing challenge to promote defensible practices while concurrently providing assessment literacy development about the appropriate design and use of testing methods like domain critical errors.

title: Fixing the c Parameter in the Three-Parameter Logistic Model
Creators: name: Han, Kyung T.
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2012

description: For several decades, the three-parameter logistic model (3PLM) has been the dominant choice for practitioners in the field of educational measurement for modeling examineesâ€™ response data from multiple-choice (MC) items. Past studies, however, have pointed out that the c-parameter of 3PLM should not be interpreted as a guessing parameter. This study found logical, empirical evidence showing that neither the a-, b-, or c-parameters of 3PLM can accurately reflect the discrimination, difficulty, and guessing properties of an item, respectively. This study reconceptualized the problem-solving and guessing processes with a modification of the 3PLM that eliminates ambiguity in modeling the guessing process. A series of studies using various real and simulated data demonstrated that the suggested model, in which the c-parameters were fixed at a computed probability for successful random guessing (i.e., c = 1 / k with k being the number of options), could provide a more feasible, stable, and accurate item estimation solution without sacrificing the model fit compared with a typical 3PLM.

On the Convergence of the Inverse Diffraction Transform Kernel Using Ces�ro Summability
Creators: name: M. Pallotta
Publisher: name: INFN Open Access Repository
Year: 1994

description: In tomography, optical information processing and, more generally, Fourier optics, the diffraction transform solves both the direct and the inverse boundary value propagation problem for the Helmholtz equation. Its kernel is itself an integral. It is the representation of the evolution operator associated with translations of a constrained Cartesian coordinate. This fact threatens the inverse scattering problem with a divergenze if the transform kernel is understood as a Cauchy integral. The kernel is, however, everywhere convergent if its integral representation is interpreted as a Cesa'ro summable integral.
Housing for the aged: an exploratory study of needs and preferences; surveys of a housing registry waiting list, and of a characteristic central area, Vancouver, 1961-62
Creators: name: Hanowski, Arvey Joseph
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: While a number of housing projects for elderly people have been built, there is a serious lack of definitive information, not only of total future need, but of the variety of needs and preferences among the aged, which is essential for the formation of an enlightened and constructive housing policy. The present study is a first step in seeking to ascertain a balanced picture of needs from old people themselves. Originally, a number of area samples within the City of Vancouver were projected, but this had to be abandoned because of enumeration difficulties. The compromise was a comparative assessment of two samples (a) one drawn from the Housing Registry set up by the Community Chest and Council, (b) one area in the False Creek section of the City which has many units peopled by elderly residents, and which is categorized for city planning purposes as needing "redevelopment". By themselves, these are not sufficiently definitive: it is hoped that more can be added in the future. But this first survey opens up both method and insights. Studies completed elsewhere have been employed as background, and relevant findings compared with the present enquiry. Several questionnaires were devised. Members of each sample group were interviewed individually, for approximately one hour each: and the interviewers added their own observations on a number of relevant factors. The evidence is that the elderly people on the Community Chest "waiting list" are in poorer health, express more dissatisfaction with their present housing, have somewhat better accommodation, but pay more for it, and have moved around more than the elderly residents in the False Creek area. Women are particularly numerous on the Registry. It is also alarmingly clear that many persons in the False Creek area cling to housing which is not serving their accommodation needs. Their neighbourhood symbolizes security; to move is to face the unknown, and also threatens their concept of independence. Both groups are spending too large a proportion of their income on rent. Both groups denied or blocked out the possibility of their health deteriorating to the point where nursing or boarding home care might be required. There is evidence that housing is not understood as a welfare matter, or a proper aim of social policy: low-rental housing is viewed negatively, and public housing for general purposes confused with housing projects for old people only.
Nuclear Photofissility at Intermediate and High Energies

description: The nuclear photofissility of actinides, at intermediate and high energies, was studied by means of a formalism which makes salient the aspects of preequilibrium emissions, compound nucleos formation, and fission decay of the equilibrated system. This formalism was applied in the interpretation of the recently measured photofissilities of 232Th and 238U, in the energy range 300-1200 MeV, using (a) an intranuclear cascade Monte Carlo calculation to describe the preequilibrium and thermalization processes, and (b) the statistical model for the fission decay of the compound nucleos. It was found that the nonsaturation of the 232Th photofissility, even at energies up to 1200 MeV, could be explained as a consequence of its higher nuclear trasparency, when compared with heavier actinidies. Also, the question about a possible competition between statistical and direct fission in 232Th and 238U was addressed.

description: In this note we asses the validity and uncertainties in the predictions of the eikonalised mini-jet model for sinelgg. We are able to find a choice of parameters where the predictions are compatible with the current data. Even for this restricted range of parameters the predictions at the high c.m. energies, which can be reached at the TeV energy e+e- colliders, differ by about 25%. LEP 2 data can help pinpoint these parameters and hence reduce the uncertainties in the predictions.
title: A Meta-Analysis of Growth Trends from Vertically Scaled Assessments

name: Briggs, Derek C.
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2012

description: A vertical scale, in principle, provides a common metric across tests with differing difficulties (e.g., spanning multiple grades) so that statements of absolute growth can be made. This paper compares 16 statesâ€™ 2007-2008 effect size growth trends on vertically scaled reading and math assessments across grades 3 to 8. Two patterns common in past research on vertical scales, score deceleration (grade-to-grade growth that decreases over time) and scale shrinkage (variability in scale scores that decreases from lower to higher grades), are investigated. Pervasive, but modest, patterns of score deceleration are found for both math and reading. Limited evidence of scale shrinkage was found for reading, and virtually no evidence was found for math. In addition, linear regression was used to show that little of the considerable variability in the growth effect sizes across states could be explained by readily identifiable characteristics of the vertical scales. However, many scale characteristics were not well documented in available technical reports. The most important of these characteristics, along with their implications for interpretations of growth, are discussed. The results serve both as a normative baseline against which other scaling efforts can be compared. Accessed 5,304 times on https://pareonline.net from November 01, 2012 to December 31, 2019.

description: We carry out relativistic many-body calculations of the static and dynamic dipole polarizabilities of the ground $6s^2 ^1S_0$ and the first excited $6s6p ^3P^o_0$ states of Yb. With these polarizabilities, we compute several properties of Yb relevant to optical lattice clocks operating on the $6s^2 ^1S_0 - 6s6p ^3P^o_0$ transition. We determine (i) the first four {\em magic} wavelengths of the laser field for which the frequency of the clock transition is insensitive to the laser intensity. While the first magic wavelength is known, we predict the second, the third and the forth magic wavelengths to be 551 nm, 465 nm, and 413 nm. (ii) We reevaluate the effect of black-body radiation on the frequency of the clock transition, the resulting clock shift at $T=300 \mathrm{K}$ being $-1.41(17)$ Hz. (iii) We compute long-range interatomic van der Waals coefficients (in a.u.) $C_6(6s^2 ^1S_0 +6s^2 ^1S_0) = 1909(160)$, $C_6(6s^2 ^1S_0 + 6s6p ^3P_0) =2709(338) $, and $C_6(6s6p ^3P_0 + 6s6p ^3P_0) =3886(360) $. Finally, we determine the atom-wall interaction coefficients (in a.u.), $C_3 (6s^2 ^1S_0) =3.34$ and $C_3 (6s6p ^3P_0) =3.68$. We also address and resolve a disagreement between previous calculations of the static polarizability of the ground state.

description: Optical Transition Radiation (OTR) provides an attractive mothod for diagnostics on electron/positron beams of small dimensions at high energies (GeV). However, some limits on the geometrical resolution at very high energies have been often discussed in the literature and a minimum value given by 'γλ' has been invoked. In order to bring an experimental contribution to the problem, systematic measurements of electron beam profiles, in the energy range of 1-2 GeV and at optical wavelength between 400 and 700 nm, have been carried out at the Orsay 2 GeV Linear Accelerator. OTR emitted from an alluminium foil at a 30° incidence angle was collected by a two-lens telescope and recorded by an intensified CCD camera. The OTR beam profiles were compared to the profiles obtained by a SEM Grid having a resolution better than 0. mm.After a theoretical introduction presenting the different resolution limits, which can be invoked with diffraction phenomenon, and a presentation of our calibration procedure, the experimental results are presented and compared to these limits. They show that the resolution OTR measurements is definitely better than the already invoked gl -limit. For a small size electron beam an rms beam width as small as 170 mm, comapred to gl = 2.5mm (E=2 GeV and l = 650 nm), has been measured. Our theoretical analysis also provides a more precise evaluation of the resolution power of OTR, which depends on the sensitivity of the detector; this could be of interest for much higher energies.

Some of key interrelated parameters are: wire diameter, effective wire temperature, strong barriers at most and less cathodic side, anode-cathode and intercathodic voltages, current densities, proper impurities and the Pd surface, ageing effects.

description: The radiative ∅→π^0ηγ decay is discussed emphasizing the effects of the a_0(980) scalar resonance which dominates the high values of the π^0η invariant mass spectrum. In its lowest part, the proposed amplitude coincides with the reliable and ChPT-inspired contribution coming from chiral loops. The a_0(980) resonance is then incorporated exploiting the complementarity between ChPT and the linear sigma model for this channel. The recently reported experimental invariant mass distribution and branching ratio can be satisfactorily accommodated in our framework. For the latter, a value of B(∅→π^0ηγ) in the range (0.75--0.95)X10^{-4} is predicted.
Geometry of N=4 Twisted String

description: We compare N=2 string and N=4 topological string within the framework of the sigma model approach. Being classically equivalent on a flat background, the theories are shown to lead to different geometries when put in a curved space. In contrast to the well studied Kähler geometry characterising the former case, in the latter case a manifold has to admit a covariantly constant holomorphic two--form in order to support an N=4 twisted supersymmetry.This restricts the holonomy group to be a subgroup of SU(1,1) and leads to a Ricci--flat manifold. We speculate that, the N=4 topological formalism is an appropriate framework to smooth down ultraviolet divergences intrinsic to the N=2 theory.

description: In this paper we undertake the general study of the Abelian complexity of an infinite word on a finite alphabet. We investigate both similarities and differences between the Abelian complexity and the usual subword complexity. While the Thue-Morse minimal subshift is neither characterized by its Abelian complexity nor by its subword complexity alone, we show that the subshift is completely characterized by the two complexity functions together. We give an affirmative answer to an old question of G. Rauzy by exhibiting a class of words whose Abelian complexity is everywhere equal to 3. We also investigate links between Abelian complexity and the existence of Abelian powers. Using van der Waerden's Theorem, we show that any minimal subshift having bounded Abelian complexity contains Abelian k-powers for every positive integer k. In the case of Sturmian words we prove something stronger: For every Sturmian word w and positive integer k, each sufficiently long factor of w begins in an Abelian k-power.

description: We investigate the dynamics of a driven system of dissipative hard spheres in the framework of mode-coupling theory. The dissipation is modeled by normal restitution, and driving is applied to individual particles in the bulk. In such a system, a glass transition is predicted for a finite transition density. For increasing inelasticity, the transition shifts to higher densities. Despite the strong driving at high dissipation, the transition persists up to the limit of totally inelastic normal restitution.

Radiative transfer models show that mixtures of volatile ice and nonvolatile organics could be extremely red, but become progressively darker and less red as the ice sublimates away.

description: The present study was designed to test for item order effects by measuring four distinct constructs that contribute substantively to anxiety-related psychopathology (i.e., anxiety sensitivity, fear of negative evaluation, injury/illness sensitivity, and intolerance of uncertainty). Participants (n = 999; 71% women) were randomly assigned to complete measures for each construct presented in one of two modalities: (a) items presented cohesively as measures or (b) items presented randomly interspersed with one another. The results suggested that item order had a relatively small impact on item endorsement, response patterns, and reliabilities. The small impact was such that item order appears unlikely to influence clinical decisions related to these measures. These findings not only have implications for these and other similar measures, but further inform a long-standing debate about whether item grouping is a substantial concern in measurement.

description: The Delphi survey technique is an iterative mail or electronic (e-mail or web-based) survey method used to obtain agreement or consensus among a group of experts in a specific field on a particular issue through a well-designed and systematic multiple sequential rounds of survey administrations. Each of the multiple rounds of the Delphi survey administration is augmented with continuous summary feedback of aggregated responses from the same group of experts. Statistical methods to analyze data from the Delphi surveys to make decisions for terminating subsequent Delphi data collection are needed to ensure that (a) stability of the responses of the panel of experts is reached; and (b) termination of the rounds of the Delphi survey administration is based on sound statistical results. The present study presents an overview of the parametric and nonparametric statistical methods that can be used to analyze the structured Delphi survey data to make decisions about terminating the sequential Delphi survey data collection.

While much time and effort may go into their creation, it is equally important to assess how effective and efficient the rubrics actually are in terms of measuring competencies over a number of criteria. This study demonstrates the use of common factor analysis to identify the number of criteria actually measured by an analytic or listing rubric. This information can help designers revise their rubrics so that each criterion measured corresponds to one unique competency making the rubric more effective and efficient.

Schizophrenic reproduction of emotionally toned and neutral material
Creators: name: Treit, Joyce Isabel
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The present investigation was an attempt to explore the reproduction by schizophrenics of emotionally- toned and neutral material under conditions of immediate and delayed recall. The relationship of the reproductions to the degree of illness of the patient was also studied. For these purposes, two structurally equivalent meaningful prose paragraphs, one neutral in tone and the other strongly aggressive in tone, were presented individually to eighteen male patients diagnosed as schizophrenic who had been rank ordered in terms of degree of illness. Preceding the main investigation a pilot study was conducted with forty-five schizophrenics and eight normals, using the emotionally-toned stimulus material. Thirteen of the schizophrenics gave an unaided delayed recall. The purpose of the pilot study was to test the potential of the material to elicit a wide and symmetrical distribution of scores. It was also designed to assess differences between the initial and delayed recall of the schizophrenic subjects. The results showed statistically significant differences between the schizophrenics and the normals on all the quantitative measures with the exception of the importations. There were no differences between the initial and delayed recall. The stimulus material was effective in eliciting symmetrical distributions. In the initial learning session of the present investigation, the two types of material were presented in a counterbalanced order from subject to subject. The procedure of one-trial learning and immediate recall was followed. One week later an unaided recall of the two different stimulus materials was obtained. The results of the quantitative analysis showed only minor differences between the reproductions of the two types of material. The qualitative analysis showed evidence of differential treatment of the two materials by the subjects. It also showed differences in learning efficiency between the reproductions of the two materials, in favour of the emotionally-toned material. The learning scores for the initial recall session were significantly greater than for the delayed recall session, particularly for the emotionally-toned material. The only consistent correlation with degree of illness was in the delayed recall of the emotional material. It may be concluded that the schizophrenic reproductions in this study did not support the theory hypothesizing inferior recall of emotionally-toned material as opposed to neutral material. If anything, these subjects gave indications of following the normal pattern in this regard. Other results of the respective analyses were inconclusive, but invite further investigation.

Year: 2011

description: In 1956 plans were begun for the establishment of a Social Centre sponsored by the Canadian Mental Health Association in Vancouver, B.C. as a special resource for former patients of mental hospitals. It was opened in 1959. This thesis makes an appraisal of the Social Centre, the relevance of its initial planning, and the quality of its first year of operation. Such a Social Centre is significant in social work because it demonstrates contributions from groupwork, casework and community organization while the setting is new enough to invite further experiment. This survey employs the following techniques: the study of records; interviews with staff members, volunteers, and workers in related fields; and comprehensive interviews with a selected group of Social Centre members. This study (a) confirms that careful preliminary planning, based on a study of needs, resources, and on evaluations of similar projects in other cities, substantially aided the experiment in achieving its aims. It is evident (b) that a professionally-trained social worker, with a knowledge of groupwork techniques and a knowledge of resources in the community was of value in setting up this service; and finally, (c) that the members themselves, given encouragement, can take much of the responsibility for the operation of the Centre. Continuing needs include (a) a broadening of membership to other categories than the present ones, (b) more centres to serve other districts, and (c) the co-operation of such allied agencies as neighborhood houses, "Y's", etc.

description: Numerous research studies show word reading performance influences reading comprehension. Few studies investigate how reading comprehension influences word reading. The current study explores whether alleviating the attention required for reading comprehension correlates with a better word reading performance. Three types of tongue twister reading tasks that involve recall (RR), semantic priming (PP), and instructional focus on the phonological information (PF) all have a high demand for attention on word reading. Differently, the attention demanded by PP tasks on reading comprehension is smaller than RR and RF tasks. Numbers of speech errors are used to manifest the variability of these three attentional control modes. It is predicted that during tongue twister readings, task types demanding less attention on reading comprehension will elicit fewer speech errors. Mixed and fixed effect Poisson regression analysis with RR tasks as the comparison foundation shows a highly significant correlation (p< .001) between total speech error numbers and PP tasks; no significant correlations between total speech error numbers and PF tasks. These results offer evidence that reducing the attention demanded on reading comprehension alleviates the attentional control strain and allows better performance on word reading. This study suggests understanding the interaction between reading comprehension and word reading through speech errors by including executive functions like attentional control is a hopeful direction. Improvements and future directions are discussed in the end.

description: We study the temperature dependence of the eta and eta' meson masses within the framework of U(3)_L x U(3)_R chiral perturbation theory, up to next-to-leading order in a simultaneous expansion in momenta,quark masses and number of colours.We find that both masses decrease at low temperatures, but only very slightly. We analyze higher order corrections and argue that large N_c suggests a discontinuous drop  of M_eta' at the critical temperature of deconfinement T_c, consistent with a first order transition to a phase with approximate U(1)_A symmetry.

The upper critical field vs. temperature curves exhibit strong concave curvatures, which can be explained by the Jaccarino-Peter compensation effect due to the antiferromagnetic exchange interaction between the Eu$^{2+}$ moments and conduction electrons.

description: The Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process may be used to generate a noise signal with a finite correlation time. If a one-dimensional stochastic process is driven by such a noise source, it may be analysed by solving a Fokker-Planck equation in two dimensions. In the case of motion in the vicinity of an attractive fixed point, it is shown how the solution of this equation can be developed as a power series. The coefficients are determined exactly by using algebraic properties of a system of annihilation and creation operators.

title: Making Use of District and School Data
Creators: name: Parke, Carol S.
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2012

description: This paper describes how districts can better use their extensive student databases and other existing data to explore questions of interest. School districts are required to maintain a wealth of student information in electronic data systems and other formats. The meaningfulness of the data depends to a large degree on whether they can understand the information and use it to guide their efforts. The considerations and guidelines presented here are organized into six components which include identifying the broad area, creating specific questions, roles and trust, sample and methodology, presentation of results, and outcomes and further directions. Two examples are used throughout the paper to illustrate each component. One is from a study of high school mathematics in an urban school district, the other is from a teacher-initiated effort to better understand student's perceptions of their middle school. Recommendations are offered throughout for encouraging effective data use in decision-making. Accessed 8,252 times on https://pareonline.net from May 16, 2012 to December 31, 2019.

title: Repositioning Formative Assessment from an Educational Assessment Perspective: A Response to Dunn & Mulvenon (2009)
Creators: name: Filsecker, Michael
name: Kerres, Michael
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2012

description: Within the recognized tensions between statewide testing and the process of teaching and learning, formative assessment’s potential for improving student learning and for shedding light “inside the black box,” has received increased attention from scholars in different countries. In their critical review, Dunn & Mulvenon (2009) pointed out the lack of agreed-upon definitions and limited empirical evidence concerning formative assessment. We contend that from the educational assessment field, there is a clear overlap among definitions of the concept and that the conceptual confusion may be coming from outside the field. We also argue that Dunn & Mulvenon’s claim of limited empirical evidence is basically inaccurate and based on misinterpretations of Black & Wiliam’s (1998) article and of social science research more broadly. Consequently, we start by distinguishing key concepts related to formative assessment. Second, we describe the paradigm of the educational assessment field, and summarize the different definitions they propose. Finally, the article addresses the issue of “limited” empirical evidence concerning formative assessment. Acessed 8,040 times on https://pareonline.net from December 10, 2012 to December 31, 2019.

Spin-orbit coupling induced anisotropy effects in bimetallic antiferromagnets: A route towards antiferromagnetic spintronics

description: Magnetic anisotropy phenomena in bimetallic antiferromagnets Mn$_2$Au and MnIr are studied by first-principles density functional theory calculations. We find strong and lattice-parameter dependent magnetic anisotropies of the ground state energy, chemical potential, and density of states, and attribute these anisotropies to combined effects of large moment on the Mn 3$d$ shell and large spin-orbit coupling on the 5$d$ shell of the noble metal. Large magnitudes of the proposed effects can open a route towards spintronics in compensated antiferromagnets without involving ferromagnetic elements.

title: Logits and tigers and bears, oh my! A brief look at the simple math of logistic regression and how it can improve dissemination of results
Creators: name: Osborne, Jason W.
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2012

description: Logistic regression is slowly gaining acceptance in the social sciences, and fills an important niche in the researcherâ€™s toolkit: being able to predict important outcomes that are not continuous in nature. While OLS regression is a valuable tool, it cannot routinely be used to predict outcomes that are binary or categorical in nature. These outcomes represent important social science lines of research: retention in, or dropout from school, using illicit drugs, underage alcohol consumption, antisocial behavior, purchasing decisions, voting patterns, risky behavior, and so on. The goal of this paper is to briefly lead the reader through the surprisingly simple mathematics that underpins logistic regression: probabilities, odds, odds ratios, and logits. Anyone with spreadsheet software or a scientific calculator can follow along, and in turn, this knowledge can be used to make much more interesting, clear, and accurate presentations of results (especially to non-technical audiences). In particular, I will share an example of an interaction in logistic regression, how it was originally graphed, and how the graph was made substantially more user-friendly by converting the original metric (logits) to a more readily interpretable metric (probability) through three simple steps.

description: Two-dimensional layered materials, such as transition metal carbides or nitrides, known as MXenes, offer an ideal platform to investigate charge transfer processes in confined environment, relevant for energy conversion and storage applications. Their rich surface chemistry plays an essential role in the pseudocapacitive behavior of MXenes. However, the local distribution of surface functional groups over single flakes and within few- or multilayered flakes remains unclear. In this work, we introduce scanning X-ray microscopy (SXM) with simultaneous transmission and electron yield detection, enabling multimodal nanoscale chemical imaging with bulk and surface sensitivity, respectively, of individual MXene flakes. The Ti chemical bonding environment is found to significantly vary between few-layered HF-etched Ti3C2Tx MXenes and multilayered molten salt (MS)-etched Ti3C2Tx MXenes. Post-mortem analysis of MS-etched Ti3C2Tx electrodes cycled in a Li-ion battery further illustrates that simultaneous bulk and surface chemical imaging using SXM offers a powerful method for characterizing the electrode-electrolyte interactions at the nanoscale.

description: A new quark-field smearing algorithm is defined which enables efficient calculations of a broad range of hadron correlation functions. The technique applies a low-rank operator to define smooth fields that are to be used in hadron creation operators. The resulting space of smooth fields is small enough that all elements of the reduced quark propagator can be computed exactly at reasonable computational cost. Correlations between arbitrary sources, including multi hadron operators can be computed a posteriori without requiring new lattice Dirac operator inversions. The method is tested on realistic lattice sizes with light dynamical quarks.

title: A Primer on Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) for Behavioral Scientists

Year: 2014

description: Reviews of statistical procedures (e.g., Bangert & Baumberger, 2005; Kieffer, Reese, & Thompson, 2001; Warne, Lazo, Ramos, & Ritter, 2012) show that one of the most common multivariate statistical methods in psychological research is multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA). However, MANOVA and its associated procedures are often not properly understood, as demonstrated by the fact that few of the MANOVAs published in the scientific literature were accompanied by the correct post hoc procedure, descriptive discriminant analysis (DDA). The purpose of this article is to explain the theory behind and meaning of MANOVA and DDA. I also provide an example of a simple MANOVA with real mental health data from 4,384 adolescents to show how to interpret MANOVA results.
