Michael Borenstein – Research Synthesis Methods, 2024
In any meta-analysis, it is critically important to report the dispersion in effects as well as the mean effect. If an intervention has a moderate clinical impact "on average" we also need to know if the impact is moderate for all relevant populations, or if it varies from trivial in some to major in others. Or indeed, if the…

Provoking Thought: A Predictive Processing Account of Critical Thinking and the Effects of Education
May, Christopher J.; Wittingslow, Ryan; Blandhol, Merethe – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2022
In this paper, we propose that an increasingly regarded theoretical framework in neuroscience--the predictive processing framework--can help to advance an understanding of the foundations of critical thinking as well as provide a mechanistic hypothesis for how education may increase a learner's subsequent use of critical thinking outside of an…

Miao, Dezhuang; Dong, Yu; Lu, Xuesong – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2020
In colleges, programming is increasingly becoming a general education course of almost all STEM majors as well as some art majors, resulting in an emerging demand for scalable programming education. To support scalable education, teaching activities such as grading and feedback have to be automated. Recently, online judge systems have been…

Gates, Joshua – Physics Teacher, 2011
Early in their study of one-dimensional kinematics, my students build an algebraic model that describes the effects of a rolling ball's (perpendicular) collision with a wall. The goal is for the model to predict the ball's velocity when it returns to a fixed point approximately 50-100 cm from the wall as a function of its velocity as it passes…

Powers, Daniel A. – New Directions for Institutional Research, 2012
The methods and models for categorical data analysis cover considerable ground, ranging from regression-type models for binary and binomial data, count data, to ordered and unordered polytomous variables, as well as regression models that mix qualitative and continuous data. This article focuses on methods for binary or binomial data, which are…

Soto, Fabian A.; Wasserman, Edward A. – Psychological Review, 2010
A wealth of empirical evidence has now accumulated concerning animals' categorizing photographs of real-world objects. Although these complex stimuli have the advantage of fostering rapid category learning, they are difficult to manipulate experimentally and to represent in formal models of behavior. We present a solution to the representation…

Krijnen, Wim P. – Psychometrika, 2006
For the confirmatory factor model a series of inequalities is given with respect to the mean square error (MSE) of three main factor score predictors. The eigenvalues of these MSE matrices are a monotonic function of the eigenvalues of the matrix gamma[subscript rho] = theta[superscript 1/2] lambda[subscript rho] 'psi[subscript rho] [superscript…

Jokel, Regina; Rochon, Elizabeth; Leonard, Carol – Brain and Cognition, 2004
This paper presents preliminary results of pre- and post-treatment error analysis from an aphasic patient with anomia. The Interactive Activation (IA) model of word production (Dell, Schwartz, Martin, Saffran, & Gagnon, 1997) is utilized to make predictions about the anticipated changes on a picture naming task and to explain emerging patterns.…

Allchin, Douglas – Science & Education, 2006
This paper addresses Lawson's puzzlement about the absence of prediction in William Harvey's and Marcello Malpighi's views on capillaries. In addressing the context of that enquiry, it also addresses historiographic versus philosophical models of science, contexts of discovery versus justification, normative versus descriptive interpretations of…

Advanced Technology, Inc., Reston, VA. – 1984
The development of the error prone model (EPM) for the 1984-1985 student financial aid validation criteria for Pell Grant recipient selection is discussed, based on a comparison of the 1983-1984 EPM criteria and a newly estimated EPM. Procedures/assumptions on which the new EPM was based include: a sample of 1982-1983 Pell Grant recipients…

Advanced Technology, Inc., Reston, VA. – 1982
The development of a number of error-prone models to select Pell Grant recipients for validation is discussed. The 1983-1984 Pell Grant validation strategy consists of a two-stage approach: selection using Pre-Established Criteria (PEC) followed by selection using Error Prone Modeling (EPM). The database used for model development consists of a…
