Bayes factors for logistic (mixed effect) models by Silvey, C, Dienes, Z, Wonnacott, E

“…We illustrate this using mainly the estimates from frequentist logistic mixed-effects models (because of their widespread adoption) but also using Bayesian model comparison with Bayesian hierarchical models (which have increased flexibility). …”

Conceptualisation of global citizenship, intercultural competence, and domestic internationalisation in enhancing graduates’ global employability by Anees Janee Ali, Awang Rozaimie, Khalid, Jamshed, Nurul Hidayah

“…Stiff challenges for global job mobility strain the higher education institutions, especially in Malaysia, to revise their academic and practical curriculum in preparing graduates to meet global employability requirements. Thus, this paper mainly proposes the graduates’ global employability paradigm, which is reflected by the internationalisation process, which is moderated by the institutional support. …”
