5. Interpreting Economic Games

Author

Hadlich, S.J., Adèr, H.J., Mellenbergh, G.J., and PPLE (FdR)

Abstract

Lab experiments are a powerful method for the social sciences. Recent decades have seen an increase of experimental work throughout the disciplines, and an increasing formalisation of experimental protocols. Economic games, in particular, provide a potent tool for comparable and replicable research. However, experimental results do not speak for themselves: they require interpretation. In this paper, I present a short introduction to the method of economic experiments and discuss some of the most common concerns that arise in their interpretation.

12. Temporal considerations and strategies

Author

Adèr, H., Adèr, H.J., Mellenbergh, G.J., and Psychologische Methodenleer (Psychologie, FMG)

Abstract

In this chapter we discuss two related concepts, both relevant to research methodology. The are, time and strategy. We will first consider research situations in which temporal considerations play an important part. As part of the notion of strategy, temporal ordering is essential: it can only be described indicating the chronological order of the actions to be taken to attain a goal.

14. The multidimensional forced-choice item fails to control for social desirability due to the additive scoring method

Author

de Vries, A.L.M., Mellenbergh, G.J., van Heerden, J., Vorst, H.C.M., Shigemasu, K., Okada, A., Imaizumi, T., Hoshino, T., and Psychologische Methodenleer (Psychologie, FMG)

Abstract

The multidimensional forced-choice (MFC) item format contains multiple stimuli matched on social desirability (SD) that represent different traits. In several studies subjects have been asked to identify the more desirable stimulus in these MFC items. Since they are matched, the preference should on average be equal. But all studies show that they are not equally preferred. This study indicates that subjects then tend to identify the more applicable stimulus as the more desirable one. It is argued that the matching on SD causes the stimulus samples of the different traits to diverge in mean attractiveness or difficulty. As a result, the additive scoring of MFC items perpetuates the SD response bias.

Abstract

The construct representation of the cross-informant model of the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) and the Teacher Report Form (TRF) was evaluated using confirmatory factor analysis. Samples were collected in seven different countries. The results are based on 13,226 parent ratings and 8893 teacher ratings. The adequacy of fit for the cross-informant model was established on the basis of three approaches: conventional rules of fit, simulation, and comparison with other models. The results indicated that the cross-informant model fits these data poorly. These results were consistent across countries, informants, and both clinical and population samples. Since inadequate empirical support for the cross-informant syndromes and their differentiation was found, the construct validity of these syndrome dimensions is questioned.

39. Prenatal exposure to anticonvulsants and psychosexual development

Author

Dessens, A.B., Cohen-Kettenis, P.T., Mellenbergh, G.J., van de Poll, N.E., Koppe, J.G., Boer, K., Other departments, and Onderzoeksinstituut Psychologie (FMG)

Abstract

Animal studies have shown that prenatal exposure to the anticonvulsant drugs phenobarbital and phenytoin alters steroid hormone levels which consequently leads to disturbed sexual differentiation. In this study, possible sequelae of prenatal exposure to these anticonvulsants on gender development in humans were investigated. A follow-up study was carried out in phenobarbital- and phenytoin-exposed subjects and control subjects matched for age, sex, and the mothers' ages. Subjects were born in the Academic Medical Center between 1957 and 1972. Out of 243 exposed and 222 control subjects who were asked to volunteer, 147 exposed subjects (72 male, 75 female) and equal numbers of their matched control subjects participated in the follow-up study. They were interviewed and were asked to fill out questionnaires on gender role behavior, gender development, and sexual orientation. As a group, exposed and control subjects did not differ with respect to gender role behavior, although higher numbers of prenatally anticonvulsant-exposed subjects reported current or past cross-gender behavior and/or gender dysphoria. Three prenatally anticonvulsant-exposed subjects were transsexuals and had undergone sex reassignment surgery, a remarkably high rate given the rarity of transsexualism. In addition, two exposed males had exclusively homosexual experiences, whereas none of the control males reported exclusive homosexual behavior. The groups did not differ in attainment of pubertal psychosexual milestones
