A bildung-psychological investigation into student motives: McKinsey- or von Humboldt-oriented?
Koops, Willem; Michael, Van den Kerkhof; Ostermeier, Carlien; Van de Schoot, Rens (Taylor & Francis, 2016)This study examined differential student motives among students from a social sciences bachelor's degree, and whether this difference related to participating in educational programmes for broader intellectual formation ... -
A systematic review of Bayesian articles in psychology: the Last 25 Years
Van de Schoot, Rens; Winter, Sonja D.; Ryan, Oisín; Zondervan-Zwijnenburg, Mariëlle; Depaoli, Sarah (American Psychological Association, 2017)Although the statistical tools most often used by researchers in the field of psychology over the last 25 years are based on frequentist statistics, it is often claimed that the alternative Bayesian approach to statistics ... -
Analyzing small data sets using Bayesian estimation the case of posttraumatic stress symptoms following mechanical ventilation in burn survivors
Van de Schoot, Rens; Broere, Joris J.; Perryck, Koen H.; Zondervan-Zwijnenburg, Mariëlle; Van Loey, Nancy E. (Co–action Publishing, 2015)Background: The analysis of small data sets in longitudinal studies can lead to power issues and often suffers from biased parameter values. These issues can be solved by using Bayesian estimation in conjunction with ... -
Bayesian evaluation of inequality-constrained hypotheses in SEM Models using Mplus
Van de Schoot, Rens; Hoijtink, Herbert; Hallquist, Machael N.; Boelen, Paul A. (Taylor & Francis, 2012)Researchers in the behavioral and social sciences often have expectations that can be expressed in the form of inequality constraints among the parameters of a structural equation model resulting in an informative hypothesis. ... -
Bayesian evaluation of inequality–constrained hypotheses in SEM models using Mplus
Van de Schoot, Rens; Hoijtink, Herbert; Hallquist, Michael N.; Boelen, Paul A. (2012)Researchers in the behavioral and social sciences often have expectations that can be expressed in the form of inequality constraints among the parameters of a structural equation model resulting in an informative ... -
Bayesian evaluation of informative hypotheses in SEM using Mplus: a black bear story
Van de Schoot, Rens; Verhoeven, Marjolein; Hoijtink, Herbert (Taylor & Francis, 2013)Half in jest we use a story about a black bear to illustrate that there are some discrepancies between the formal use of the p-value and the way it is often used in practice. We argue that more can be learned from data by ... -
A checklist for testing measurement invariance
Van de Schoot, Rens; Lugtig, Peter; Hox, Joop (Taylor & Francis, 2012)The analysis of measurement invariance of latent constructs is important in research across groups, or across time. By establishing whether factor loadings, intercepts and residual variances are equivalent in a factor ... -

Child and adolescent internalizing and externalizing problems 12 months postburn: the potential role of preburn functioning, parental posttraumatic stress, and informant bias
Egberts, Marthe R.; Van de Schoot, Rens; Boekelaar, Anita; Hendrickx, Hannelore; Geenen, Rinie; Van Loey, Nancy E. E. (Springer, 2016)Adjustment after pediatric burn injury may be a challenge for children as well as their parents. This prospective study examined associations of internalizing and externalizing problems in children and adolescents 12 months ... -
Constrained statistical inference:sample–size tables for ANOVA and regression
Vanbrabant, Leonard; Van de Schoot, Rens; Rosseel, Yves (Frontiers Research Foundation, 2015)Researchers in the social and behavioural sciences often have clear expectations about the order/direction of the parameters in their statistical model. For example, a researcher might expect that regression coefficient ... -
Developmetrics. The satisfaction with life scale: measurement invariance across immigrant groups
Ponizovsky, Yael; Van de Schoot, Rens; Dimitrova, Radosveta; Schachner, Maja Katharina (Taylor & Francis, 2013)The current study examined measurement invariance of the Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS; Diener, Emmons, Larsen, & Griffin, 1985) across three immigrant groups, namely, immigrants from the Former Soviet Union (FSU) in ... -
Direct aggression and generalized anxiety in adolescence: heterogeneity in development and intra-individual change
Meeus, Wim.; Van de Schoot, Rens; Hawk, Skyler T.; Hale, William W.; Branje, Susan (Springer, 2016)Co-occurrence of aggression and anxiety might change during adolescence, or stay stable. We studied change and stability of four types of co-occurrence regarding direct aggression and anxiety in adolescence: an anxious and ... -
The effectiveness of a proactive coping intervention targeting self-management in diabetes patients
Kroese, Floor M.; Adriaanse, Marieke A.; Vinkers, Charlotte D.W.; Van de Schoot, Rens; De Ridder, Denise T.D. (Taylor & Francis, 2014)Objective: The study’s aim was to investigate psychological, behavioral and medical long-term outcomes of an existing self-management intervention targeting the development of proactive coping skills (e.g. goal setting and ... -
Eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing therapy v. stabilisation as usual for refugees: randomised controlled trial
Ter Heide, F. Jackie June; Mooren, Trudy M.; Van de Schoot, Rens; De Jongh, Ad; Kleber, Rolf J. (Royal College of Psychiatrists, 2016)Background: Eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is a first-line treatment for adults with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Some clinicians argue that with refugees, directly targeting traumatic ... -
A gentle introduction to Bayesian analysis: applications to developmental research
Van de Schoot, Rens; Kaplan, David; Denissen, Jaap; Asendorpf, Jens B.; Neyer, Franz J.; Van Aken, Marcel A.G. (Wiley, 2014)Bayesian statistical methods are becoming ever more popular in applied and fundamental research. In this study a gentle introduction to Bayesian analysis is provided. It is shown under what circumstances it is attractive ... -
Guilt in Bereavement: The Role of Self-Blame and Regret in Coping with Loss
Stroebe, Margaret; Stroebe, Wolfgang; Van de Schoot, Rens; Schut, Henk; Abakoumkin, Georgios; Li, Jie (Public Library of Science, 2014)Despite the apparent centrality of guilt in complicating reactions following bereavement, scientific investigation has been limited. Establishing the impact of specific components associated with guilt could enhance ... -
How to handle missing data: A comparison of different approaches
Peeters, Margot; Zondervan-Zwijnenburg, Marielle; Vink, Gerko; Van de Schoot, Rens (Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2015)Many researchers face the problem of missing data in longitudinal research.
