Research

Since January 2009 I am a very happy PhD student at the department of educational sciences. My research project is about the detection of measurement bias in multilevel data. Currently I am working on a procedure to test measurement bias with respect to level 1 variables, level 2 variables and the clustering variable, using structural equation modeling. My supervisors are prof. dr. F.J. Oort and dr. C.V. Dolan.

My telephone number is actually 020-5251557, not the one above.
