Funcionamiento diferencial del ítem de la evaluación internacional PISA. Detección y comprensión

2014

Este trabajo analiza el funcionamiento diferencial del ítem (FDI) de la prueba de comprensión lectora de la evaluación PISA2000 entre la muestras del Reino Unido y España. Se estudian los ítems liberados con el fin de aunar las fases de detección del FDI con la comprensión de sus causas. En la fase de detección se comparan los resultados de los procedimientos Mantel-Haenszel, Regresión Logística y Medias Estandarizadas en sus versiones para ítems dicotómicos y politómicos. Los resultados muestran que dos ítems presentan funcionamiento diferencial aunque el estudio post-hoc llevado a cabo sobre su contenido no ha podido precisar sus causas.

Indefinite integrals of Lommel functions from an inhomogeneous Euler–Lagrange method

2015

ABSTRACTA method given recently for deriving indefinite integrals of special functions which satisfy homogeneous second-order linear differential equations has been extended to include functions which obey inhomogeneous equations. The extended method has been applied to derive indefinite integrals for the Lommel functions, which obey an inhomogeneous Bessel equation. The method allows integrals to be derived for the inhomogeneous equation in a manner which closely parallels the homogeneous case, and a number of new Lommel integrals are derived which have well-known Bessel analogues. Results will be presented separately for other special functions which obey inhomogeneous second-order linear…

On the time function of the Dulac map for families of meromorphic vector fields

2003

Given an analytic family of vector fields in Bbb R2 having a saddle point, we study the asymptotic development of the time function along the union of the two separatrices. We obtain a result (depending uniformly on the parameters) which we apply to investigate the bifurcation of critical periods of quadratic centres.

An abstract doubly nonlinear equation with a measure as initial value

2007

Abstract The solvability of the abstract implicit nonlinear nonautonomous differential equation ( A ( t ) u ( t ) ) ′ + B ( t ) u ( t ) + C ( t ) u ( t ) ∋ f ( t ) will be investigated in the case of a measure as an initial value. It will be shown that this problem has a solution if the inner product of A ( t ) x and B ( t ) x + C ( t ) x is bounded below.

Introducing randomness in the analysis of chemical reactions: An analysis based on random differential equations and probability density functions

2021

[EN] In this work we consider a particular randomized kinetic model for reaction-deactivation of hydrogen peroxide decomposition. We apply the Random Variable Transformation technique to obtain the first probability density function of the solution stochastic process under general conditions. From the rst probability density function, we can obtain fundamental statistical information, such as the mean and the variance of the solution, at every instant time. The transformation considered in the application of the Random Variable Transformation technique is not unique. Then, the first probability density function can take different expressions, although essentially equivalent in terms of comp…

Solving fully randomized higher-order linear control differential equations: Application to study the dynamics of an oscillator

2021

[EN] In this work, we consider control problems represented by a linear differential equation assuming that all the coefficients are random variables and with an additive control that is a stochastic process. Specifically, we will work with controllable problems in which the initial condition and the final target are random variables. The probability density function of the solution and the control has been calculated. The theoretical results have been applied to study, from a probabilistic standpoint, a damped oscillator.
