Abstract
We outline a procedure for examining collapsibility over site in multiple-location settings that are frequently utilized in contemporary educational and behavioral research. The method is based on a test of cross-site identity of the response distributions of polytomous items in multi-component measuring instruments, which implies the possibility to pool over study location. The approach is readily applicable in empirical studies using popular and widely circulated software and is generalizable to various types of items. The described procedure is illustrated with data from a child development survey.
期刊介绍：
ACS Applied Bio Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of biomaterials and biointerfaces including and beyond the traditional biosensing, biomedical and therapeutic applications.
The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrates knowledge in the areas of materials, engineering, physics, bioscience, and chemistry into important bio applications. The journal is specifically interested in work that addresses the relationship between structure and function and assesses the stability and degradation of materials under relevant environmental and biological conditions.
