Residuals and the Residual-Based Statistic for Testing Goodness of Fit of Structural Equation Models
Foldnes, Njal; Foss, Tron; Olsson, Ulf Henning – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2012
The residuals obtained from fitting a structural equation model are crucial ingredients in obtaining chi-square goodness-of-fit statistics for the model. The authors present a didactic discussion of the residuals, obtaining a geometrical interpretation by recognizing the residuals as the result of oblique projections. This sheds light on the…

Osler, James Edward; Mansaray, Mahmud A. – Journal of Educational Technology, 2013
The online deployment of Technology Engineered online Student Ratings of Instruction (SRIs) by colleges and universities in the United States has dynamically changed the deployment of course evaluation. This research investigation is the fourth part of a post hoc study that analytically and psychometrically examines the design, reliability, and…

McLoughlin, M. Padraig M. M. – Online Submission, 2008
The author of this paper submits the thesis that learning requires doing; only through inquiry is learning achieved, and hence this paper proposes a programme of use of a modified Moore method in a Probability and Mathematical Statistics (PAMS) course sequence to teach students PAMS. Furthermore, the author of this paper opines that set theory…

Peer reviewedWoodward, Ernest; Woodward, Marilyn – Mathematics Teacher, 1994
Presents two methods of calculating the expected value for a participant on the television game show "The Wheel of Fortune." The first approach involves the use of basic expected-value principles. The second approach uses those principles in addition to infinite geometric series. (MDH)
