What are the minimal sample size requirements for Mokken scaling? An empirical example with the Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-being Scale (2018)
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?

Data mining for heart failure : an investigation into the challenges in real life clinical datasets (2015)
Thesis
Kirke, L. Data mining for heart failure : an investigation into the challenges in real life clinical datasets. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4218159

Clinical data presents a number of challenges including missing data, class imbalance, high dimensionality and non-normal distribution. A motivation for this research is to investigate and analyse the manner in which the challenges affect the perform...
