For efficient integrated management of verticillium wilt in olive ( VWO ), it is important to establish whether irrigation treatments (with Verticillium dahliae ‐free water) that mitigate the disease in V. dahliae ‐infested soil, also reduce the levels of more and less persistent propagules of the pathogen in the soil. Effects of irrigation on VWO and V. dahliae propagules were evaluated under natural environmental conditions. Potted plants were irrigated (pathogen‐free water) to two ranges of soil water ...

Statistical techniques based on logistic regression (LR) are adequate for the detection of differential item functioning (DIF) in dichotomous items. Nevertheless, they return more false positives (FPs) than do other DIF detection techniques. This paper compares the efficacy of DIF detection using the LR significance test and the estimation of the effect size that these procedures provide using R 2 of Nagelkerke. The variables manipulated were different conditions of sample size, focal and reference ...

Increased focus on curbing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and a limited and unstable supply of fossil fuel resources make diversification of energy resources a priority. Hydrogen has emerged as a promising energy vector for solving these issues. However, there are numerous challenges related to production, distribution and end use of hydrogen. Of particular importance is the link between hydrogen purity requirements for use in fuel cells and the capabilities of production. Impurities can adversely ...

Summary: This study analyzes the psychometric properties of the Spanish translation of the Matson Evaluation of Social Skills with Youngsters (MESSY; Matson, Rotatori & Helsel, 1983 ), which assesses the degree of appropriate social behavior. This social behavior self-report was applied to a sample of 634 adolescents between the ages of 12 and 17. The exploratory factor analysis isolated four factors: Aggressiveness/Antisocial Behavior, Social Skills/Assertiveness, Conceit/Haughtiness, and Loneliness/ ...

The differential item functioning (DIF) detection in polytomous response items is an area of study of recent interest. Cohen and colleagues proposed a polytomous extension of the Lord statistic and the Raju exact area measures, when the items fit the graded response model. This study examined the effects of test purification in detecting DIF by means of polytomous extensions of the Raju area measures and the Lord statistic. The factors manipulated were percentage of DIF items in the test (5%, 10%, ...

Summary We conducted a computer simulation study to determine the effect of using an iterative or noniterative multinomial logistic regression analysis (MLR) to detect differential item functioning (DIF) in polytomous items. A simple iteration in which ability is defined as total observed score in the test is compared with a two-step MLR in which the ability was purified by eliminating the DIF items. Data were generated to simulate several biased tests. The factors manipulated were: DIF effect size ( ...

Although social phobia is one of the most common mental disorders in adolescents, there are few reliable and valid assessment instruments for this age group. This study examined the factor structure and psychometric properties of a brief version of the Social Phobia and Anxiety Inventory (SPAI; Turner, Beidel, Dancu, & Stanley, 1989 ) in a sample of adolescents. Although the original 45-item SPAI has excellent psychometric properties, its utility is limited by its length. We developed and piloted a brief, ...

Anaerobic digestion (AD) technology can be employed for treating sewage sludge, livestock waste or food waste. Generally, the hydrolysis stage is the rate-limiting step of the AD processes for solid waste degradation. Therefore, physical, chemical and biological pre-treatment methods or their combination are required, in order to reduce the rate of such a limiting step. In this study, four methods (mechanical shredding, acid hydrolysis, alkaline hydrolysis and sonication) were tested to improve methane ...

However, it has remained shrouded in controversy throughout the almost seventy years of its existence. The present article reviews both the main criticisms of the method as well as the alternatives which have been put forward to complement or replace it. It focuses basically on those alternatives whose use is recommended by the Task Force on Statistical Inference ( ...
