DOI: 10.1080/00273171.2018.1557034
Abstract: Multistage estimation is frequently and extensively used in behavioral science research. However, the uncertainty carried over from a previous estimation stage to the next is often overlooked, which may lead to biased estimates of standard… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/01466216211066601
Abstract: In standardized testing, equating is used to ensure comparability of test scores across multiple test administrations. One equipercentile observed-score equating method is kernel equating, where an essential step is to obtain continuous approximations to the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/0253717620933419
Abstract: Many authors are unsure of whether to present the mean along with the standard deviation (SD) or along with the standard error of the mean (SEM). The SD is a descriptive statistic that estimates the… read more here.

DOI: 10.5694/mja17.00633
Abstract: SD describes the variability between individual observations about their mean value. It is rarely possible to obtain measurements for all members of a population, so we estimate the population mean (usually denoted by m) and… read more here.
