(2020 , Professional Masters Project)Digitalization plays a big role in world and has an effect on the tools of learning. In 2013, e-Textbooks became commonly used in most science core curricula and some literary curricula at Qatar University. However, ... -
Exponential model for breast cancer partly interval censored data via multiple imputation
(2021 , Master Thesis)The estimation problem for interval-censored data has been investigated by several authors. The application of conventional methods to interval censored data that has been considered by Lindsey and Ryan (1998) showed ... -
FACTORS AFFECTING ACADEMIC DISCIPLINE SELECTION AND ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE OF 12TH GRADE STUDENTS IN QATAR
(2022 , Professional Masters Project)COVID-19 pandemic has led to the lockdown of major cities worldwide, which caused the early closure of schools and educational institutions in the towns affected. This pandemic had a negative impact on the performance of ... -
Factors of the Asymmetric Non-Uniform DIF Detection Rate When Using the Alternative Mantel-Haenszel Procedure
(2020 , Master Thesis)Test-item bias has become an increasingly challenging investigation in statistics and education. A popular method, the Mantel-Haenszel (MH) Test, is used for detecting non-uniform differential item functioning (DIF) but ... -
GENERALIZING THE POINT BISERIAL TO MEASURE THE ASSOCIATION BETWEEN A SET OF DICHOTOMOUS VARIABLES AND A CONTINUOUS VARIABLE
(2022 , Master Thesis)Exploring the statistical association between more than two variables requires utilizing a proper technique/test along with meeting its required assumptions. Measures of correlation are used to explain such associations ... -
