Item type:Publication, Screening for aberrant school performances in high-stakes assessments using in influential analysis(Inderscience Publishers, 2020-01-01)A method is proposed to screen for aberrant school performances in large-scale, high-stakes assessments using influential analysis under a Bayesian approach. Proportions of low and high achievers within a school were modelled via the beta inflated mean regression model (Bayes and Valdivieso, 2016) using school performances in previous years as predictors. The general measure of ϕ-divergence proposed by Peng and Dey (1995) was used to determine aberrancy. A simulation study revealed that the method could recover previously distorted school performances as aberrant. The proposed technique was applied to a Peruvian national reading assessment in grade 4th of primary education for which the government provided a school performance incentive bonus. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Locational factors and the reindustrialisation process in the USA; Reshoring from China(Inderscience Publishers, 2020-01-01)The main goal of this paper is to analyse the influence of locational factors on the reindustrialisation process in the USA through reshoring from China. The applicability of traditional location theories and their locational factors are also examined here. This paper evaluates the development of labour cost, agglomeration effect, land cost, and raw material cost over recent years as factors encouraging the reindustrialisation process. Transportation cost and the impact of political institutions offer contrasting pictures. While high intermodal freight costs in the US and an appreciating Yuan promote the reindustrialisation process, low ocean shipping costs and enormous business incentives in China weaken the positive effects. All in all, it is concluded that most locational factors have changed in favourable ways for the USA and thus made manufacturing in the USA comparatively more attractive. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
