A norm-referenced score expresses the position of an individual test taker in the reference
population, thereby enabling a proper interpretation of the test score. Such normed scores …

Background: Total and differential white blood cell counts are important for the diagnostic
evaluation of suspected diseases. To facilitate the interpretation of total and differential white …

Norming of psychological tests is decisive for test score interpretation. However,
conventional norming based on subgroups results either in biases or require very large …

Particle size is a key parameter that must be measured to ensure reproducible production of
cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) and to achieve reliable performance metrics for specific CNC …

Study objective To compare Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) vital signs criteria to
empirically derived vital signs cut-points for predicting out-of-hospital interventions in …

Particle size measurements of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are challenging due to their
broad size distribution, irregular shape and propensity to agglomerate. Particle size is one of …

The usefulness of mean aggregates in the analysis of intervention effectiveness is a matter
of considerable debate in the psychological, educational, and social sciences. In addition to …

The interpretation of psychometric test results is usually based on norm scores. We
compared semiparametric continuous norming (SPCN) with conventional norming methods …

One of the key features in regression models consists in selecting appropriate
characteristics that explain the behavior of the response variable, in which stepwise-based …

Objectives: To generate robust, demographically-adjusted regression-based norms for the
Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) using a large sample of diverse older US adults …
