Dichotomizing Screening Measures of Latent Traits at New Cut-Off Values: Model-Based Approaches from Summary Statistics

2022-10-28

Abstract excerpt

<p>Screening measures and cut-off values are used across different fields of psychology to differentiate between two states (e.g., pathological and non-pathological). Their diagnostic accuracy can be examined with sensitivity and specificity, and cut-offs are chosen to be optimal. However, these statistics are known to be prevalence-dependent. Cut-offs must not be transferred between populations blindly, but chose...
