This study introduces the statistical theory of using the Standardized Root Mean Squared Error (SRMR) to test close fit in ordinal factor analysis. We also compare the accuracy of confidence intervals (CIs) and tests of close fit based on the SRMR with those obtained based on the Root Mean Squared Error of Approximation (RMSEA). The current (biased...
Recent work on the role of the ACC in cognition has focused on choice difficulty, action value, risk avoidance, conflict resolution, and the value of exerting control among other factors. A main underlying question is what are the output signals of ACC, and relatedly, what is their effect on downstream cognitive processes? Here we propose a model o...
Le fil conducteur de ma recherche est l'application des techniques robotiques en identification des modèles inverses aux systèmes de transport routier et ferroviaire. Mes compétences scientifiques sont dans le domaine des mathématiques appliquées : statistiques, analyse numérique matricielle, théorie de la viabilité.Travaillant dans un organisme de...
Although interpersonal interactions are the mainstay of many assessment center exercises, little is known about how these interactions unfold and affect participant behavior and performance. More specifically, participants interact with role players who have been instructed to demonstrate behavior reflecting specific dispositions as part of the exe...
This article retraces the history of fertility theories as illustrated by 23 founding texts grouped together in a single volume (Leridon, 2014, Les théories de la fécondité, INED). Until recent times, no reliable statistics were available for the analysis of fertility behaviours, which were treated rather as a question of philosophy, morals, politi...
L'objectif de cet article est de présenter l'évolution des théories de la fécondité à travers 23 textes fondateurs regroupés dans un manuel (Leridon, 2014, Les théories de la fécondité, Ined). Longtemps, la réflexion sur les comportements de fécondité ne put s'appuyer sur des données statistiques fiables : elle relevait plutôt de la philosophie, de...
