Journal Article
Watson, R., Egberink, I. J., Kirke, L., Tendeiro, J. N., & Doyle, F. (in press). What are the minimal sample size requirements for Mokken scaling? An empirical example with the Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-being Scale. Health Psychology and Behavioral Medicine, 6(1), 203-213. https://doi.org/10.1080/21642850.2018.1505520

Purpose
Sample size in Mokken scales is mostly studied on simulated data, reflected in the lack of consideration of sample size in most Mokken scaling studies. Recently, Straat et al. (2014) provided minimum sample size requirements for Mokken scale... Read More about What are the minimal sample size requirements for Mokken scaling?

Explicit Modelling and Treatment of Repair in Prediction of Dependability (2018)
Journal Article
Aizpurua, J. I., Papadopoulos, Y., & Merle, G. (2020). Explicit Modelling and Treatment of Repair in Prediction of Dependability. IEEE Transactions on Dependable and Secure Computing, 17(6), 1147-1162. https://doi.org/10.1109/TDSC.2018.2857810

In engineering practice, multiple repair actions are considered carefully by designers, and their success or failure defines further control actions and the evolution of the system state. Such treatment is not fully supported by the current state-of-... Read More about Explicit Modelling and Treatment of Repair in Prediction of Dependability.
