Modelling Kinship with LISP - A Two-Sex Model of Kin-Counts

The crucial problem related to aging is how to provide support for the increasing proportion of the elderly. The measure and way of this support depends on the kinship pattern for a particular population. The paper develops the approach to modeling the kinship. The results of modeling show that the approach can be successfully implemented to the analysis of the family dynamics

A cognitive latent variable model for the simultaneous analysis of behavioral and personality data

I describe a cognitive latent variable model, a combination of a cognitive model and a latent variable model that can be used to aggregate information regarding cognitive parameters across participants and tasks. The model is ideally suited for uncovering relationships between latent task abilities as they are expressed in experimental paradigms, but can also be used as data fusion tools to connect latent abilities with external covariates from entirely different data sources. An example application deals with the structure of cognitive abilities underlying an executive functioning task and its relation to personality traits. © 2014 Elsevier Inc
