referred to as paired comparison. Prominent psychometrician L. L. Thurstone first introduced a scientific approach to using pairwise comparisons for measurement...

model is not applied. Krus and Kennedy (1977) elaborated the paired comparison scaling within their domain-referenced model. The Bradley–Terry–Luce (BTL)...

nature of the scale. If interval nature is assumed for a comparison of two groups, the paired samples t-test is not inappropriate. If non-parametric tests...

assignments. A metaphor for thinking about comparison sorts is that someone has a set of unlabelled weights and a balance scale. Their goal is to line up the weights...

Round-robin, paired comparison, or tournament voting methods, are a set of ranked voting systems that choose winners by comparing every pair of candidates...

two hydrogen bonds, does occur fairly often in RNA (see wobble base pair). Paired DNA and RNA molecules are comparatively stable at room temperature,...

the mapped point's scale to the nominal scale. In this case 'scale' means the scale factor (also called point scale or particular scale). If the region of...

difference in means involve independent samples (unpaired samples) or paired samples. Paired t-tests are a form of blocking, and have greater power (probability...

attitude. Thurstone's method of pair comparisons can be considered a prototype of a normal distribution-based method for scaling-dominance matrices. Even though...

inform us on five of six possible implied paired comparisons: A > B A > C A > D B > D C > D The only paired comparison that cannot be inferred is B vs. C. In...

variable. Others compare two or more paired or unpaired samples. Unpaired samples are also called independent samples. Paired samples are also called dependent...

Scales (or more commonly the Stanford–Binet) is an individually administered intelligence test that was revised from the original Binet–Simon Scale by...

is higher or lower on the scale than another, but more precise comparisons cannot be made. Thus, the use of an ordinal scale implies a statement of "greater...

measurement on a ruled scale, a dial, or an electronic digital display. A common association is to calipers using a sliding vernier scale. Some calipers can...

a measure of errors between paired observations expressing the same phenomenon. Examples of Y versus X include comparisons of predicted versus observed...
