  2. 6. Attrition in Studies of Cognitive Aging

    Author : Maria Josefsson; Xavier de Luna; Lars Nyberg; Anders Lundquist; Mattias Villani; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Attrition; missing data; age-related cognitive change; non- ignorable dropout; monotone missing pattern; mixture models; pattern- mixture models; imputation; Statistics; statistik;

    Abstract : Longitudinal studies of cognition are preferred to cross-sectional stud- ies, since they offer a direct assessment of age-related cognitive change (within-person change). Statistical methods for analyzing age-related change are widely available. READ MORE

  4. 7. Latent variable models for longitudinal twin data

    Author : Annica Dominicus; Juni Palmgren; Nancy L. Pedersen; Michael G. Kenward; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Latent variable models; twin models; variance components; change point models; non-ignorable nonresponse; likelihood ratio tests; Mathematical statistics; Matematisk statistik;

    Abstract : Longitudinal twin data provide important information for exploring sources of variation in human traits. In statistical models for twin data, unobserved genetic and environmental factors influencing the trait are represented by latent variables. In this way, trait variation can be decomposed into genetic and environmental components. READ MORE

  5. 8. Cognitive abilities - aspects of structure, process and measurement

    Author : Berit Carlstedt; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Cognitive abilities; factor models of intelligence; Enlistment battery; hierarchical models; item sequencing; construct validity; differentiation hypothesis; test evaluation; structural equation modeling;

    Abstract : The overall purpose of the thesis is to describe the development of the Swedish system of measuring cognitive abilities applied at enlistment of conscripts. The Enlistment Battery has been used for more than fifty years to classify 18-year old men into military positions for their compulsory service. READ MORE

  6. 9. Reasoning with Bounded Cognitive Resources

    Author : Abdul Rahim Nizamani; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Artificial general intelligence; logical reasoning; inductive learning; proof systems; bounded cognitive resources; cognitive modeling;

    Abstract : Reasoning is an essential element of intelligence. Automated reasoning in formal and symbolic systems is a major topic in computer science and artificial intelligence (AI). Programs for computer-assisted and automated theorem proving are being constructed and used by mathematicians and logicians. READ MORE
