Overview: Introduces Bayesian item response modeling with examples in a wide array of contexts.Gives a unified treatment of extending traditional item response models to handle more complex assessment data.CompThe modeling of item response data is governed by item response theory, also referred to as modern test theory. The eld of inquiry of item response theory has become very large and shows the enormous progress that has been made. The mainstream literature is focused on frequentist statistical methods for - timating model parameters and evaluating model t. However, the Bayesian methodology

Overview: Providing a balance of empirical research and practical concerns, this book explores the definitions and historical context of spiritual abuse, outlines a process model for the different stages of spiritual abuse and includes strategies for therapists working with survivors of spiritual abuse.978-1-349-44877-7978-1-137-28287-3

Overview: Includes a variety of topics and cases, mainly from less-studied parts of the world.Collectively demonstrates a range of relevant aspects of insect conservation.Interest in beetle conservation has long been evident, with many papers treating these abundant, ecologically important and popular insects. However, this issue of Journal of Insect Conservation is the first to be dedicated entirely to beetles, and it contains a number of papers, predominantly from outside Western Europe, to demonstrate the variety and scope of problems and conservation concerns that surround these insects. A

Overview: Develops the understanding of media transformation.Analyses a multitude of media types and media interrelations.Offers a thoroughly interdisciplinary conceptual framework.This open access book promotes the idea that all media types are multimodal and that comparing media types, through an intermedial lens, necessarily involves analysing these multimodal traits. The collection includes a series of interconnected articles that illustrate and clarify how the concepts developed in Elleström’s influential article .The Modalities of Media: A Model for Understanding Intermedial Relations. (

MWBIVPCS 2013 brought together researchers representing several fields, such as Biomechanics, Engineering, Medicine, Mathematics, Physics and Statistic..The contributions included in this book present and discuss new trends in those f

Overview: Explores the importance of bodily fluids to the development of medical knowledge in the eighteenth century.Reveals the lives and works of the scientists in the Boerhaave School, which grew to become aThis book explores the importance of bodily fluids to the development of medical knowledge in the eighteenth century. While the historiography has focused on the role of anatomy, this study shows that the chemical analyses of bodily fluids in the Dutch Republic radically altered perceptions of the body, propelling forwards a new system of medicine. It examines the new research methods an

Overview: Motivations- und handlungstheoretische Grundlagen liberaler TheorienLegitimität und begründeter Legitimitätsglaube sind aus Sicht der liberalen politischen Philosophie nicht voneinander zu trennen: Die Regeln zur Ordnung einer Gesellschaft sind nur dann normativ gerechtfertigt, wenn die Bürger, die diesen Regeln unterworfen werden sollen, sie - prinzipiell - tatsächlich akzeptieren können, und zwar wegen der Gründe, die für sie sprechen. Daher muss es ein zentrales Anliegen liberaler Theoretiker sein, die Bedingungen zu untersuchen, unter denen gerechtfertigter Legitimitätsglaube ent

Overview: Bildung in Deutschland!.Ein Studienbuch zur Einführung.Seit dem PISA-Schock beschäftigt das "Megathema" Bildung die mediale Öffentlichkeit. Die daran anknüpfenden Reformdebatten haben teilweise heftige bildungspolitische Kontroversen ausgelöst. Die Bildungspolitik, die über viele Jahre nur ein Schattendasein führte, erfuhr dadurch eine enorme Aufwertung. Das Buch bietet eine systematische Einführung in grundlegende Fragen der Inhalte, Strukturen und Prozesse dieses sehr komplexen Politikfeldes, wobei die Steuerung der Schulpolitik und der Hochschulpolitik im Fokus der Darstellung ste
