Dysfunction of the gallbladder smooth muscle (GSM) may play a crucial role, particularly with a high-fat diet (HFD). This study aimed to investigate the effects of an HFD on GSM and assess how it alters contractility through changes in the extracellular matrix (ECM).

Inference of Correlations Among Testlet Effects: A Latent Variable Selection Method.

Appl Psychol Meas

December 2024

Collaborative Innovation Center of Assessment Toward Basic Education Quality, Beijing Normal University, Beijing, China.

In psychological and educational measurement, a testlet-based test is a common and popular format, especially in some large-scale assessments. In modeling testlet effects, a standard bifactor model, as a common strategy, assumes different testlet effects and the main effect to be fully independently distributed. However, it is difficult to establish perfectly independent clusters as this assumption.
