  • Local Independence and Residual Covariance: a Study of Olympic Figure Skating Ratings
    JOURNAL OF APPLIED MEASUREMENT, 10(2), Copyright© 2009 Local Independence and Residual Covariance: A Study of Olympic Figure Skating Ratings John M. Linacre University of the Sunshine Coast, Australia Rasch fit analysis has focused on tests of global fit and tests of the fit of individual parameter estimates. Critics have noted that slight, but pervasive, patterns of misfit to a Rasch model within the data may escape detection using these approaches. These patterns contradict the Rasch axiom of local independence, and so degrade measurement and may bias measures. Misfit to a Rasch model is captured in the observation residuals. Traces of pervasive, but faint, secondary dimensions within the observations may be identified using factor analytic techniques. To illustrate these techniques, the ratings awarded during the Pairs Figure Skating competition at the 2002 Winter Olympic Games are examined. The intention is to detect analytically the patterns of rater bias admitted publicly after the event. It is seen that the one-parameter-at-a-time fit statistics and differential item functioning approaches fail to detect the crucial misfit patterns. Factor analytic methods do. In fact, the competition was held in two stages. Factor analytic techniques already detect the rater bias after the first stage. This suggests that remedial rater retraining or other rater-related actions could be taken before the final ratings are collected.

  • Script Crisis and Literary Modernity in China, 1916-1958 Zhong Yurou
    Script Crisis and Literary Modernity in China, 1916-1958 Zhong Yurou Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Yurou Zhong All rights reserved ABSTRACT Script Crisis and Literary Modernity in China, 1916-1958 Yurou Zhong This dissertation examines the modern Chinese script crisis in twentieth-century China. It situates the Chinese script crisis within the modern phenomenon of phonocentrism – the systematic privileging of speech over writing. It depicts the Chinese experience as an integral part of a worldwide crisis of non-alphabetic scripts in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. It places the crisis of Chinese characters at the center of the making of modern Chinese language, literature, and culture. It investigates how the script crisis and the ensuing script revolution intersect with significant historical processes such as the Chinese engagement in the two World Wars, national and international education movements, the Communist revolution, and national salvation. Since the late nineteenth century, the Chinese writing system began to be targeted as the roadblock to literacy, science and democracy. Chinese and foreign scholars took the abolition of Chinese script to be the condition of modernity. A script revolution was launched as the Chinese response to the script crisis. This dissertation traces the beginning of the crisis to 1916, when Chao Yuen Ren published his English article “The Problem of the Chinese Language,” sweeping away all theoretical oppositions to alphabetizing the Chinese script. This was followed by two major movements dedicated to the task of eradicating Chinese characters: First, the Chinese Romanization Movement spearheaded by a group of Chinese and international scholars which was quickly endorsed by the Guomingdang (GMD) Nationalist government in the 1920s; Second, the dissident Chinese Latinization Movement initiated in the Soviet Union and championed by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in the 1930s.

  • 2014 Winter Olympic Competing Nations ALBANIA (ALB)
    2014 Winter Olympic Competing Nations We list below detailed historial Olympic information for every IOC Member Nation that has previously competed at the Olympic Winter Games and that will compete in Sochi, as of 27 January 2014. There appear to be 88 qualified NOCs that have met IF quota requirements as of 24 January, and have accepted them (the previous record for a Winter Olympics is 82 in 2010 at Vancouver). Unfortunately, after reallocation of some quotas, only the skiing federation (FIS) has published the final quotas as of 26 January. We have tried to list below the sports for which each NOC has qualified but there is a small chance, with reallocations, that there may be minor differences in the final allocation by sport. There are seven nations that will compete in Sochi that have never before competed at the Olympic Winter Games – Dominica, Malta, Paraguay, Timor-Leste (East Timor), Togo, Tonga, and Zimbabwe. Their factsheets have been published previously on olympstats.com – see http://olympstats.com/2014/01/23/new-winter-olympic-nations-for-sochi/, which came out on 23 January. One problem nation is listed below and that is DPR Korea (North). They have not qualified any athletes for Sochi. They had the 1st and 2nd reserves for pairs figure skating but those do not appear to have been chosen by final reallocation of quota sports by the International Skating Union (ISU). However, yesterday (26 January), DPR Korea has petitioned the IOC for redress to allow them to have Olympic athletes compete in Sochi. So they are included below but it is unknown if they will compete.
