Brinley N. Zabriskie; Nolan Cole; Jacob Baldauf; Craig Decker – Research Synthesis Methods, 2024
Meta-analyses have become the gold standard for synthesizing evidence from multiple clinical trials, and they are especially useful when outcomes are rare or adverse since individual trials often lack sufficient power to detect a treatment effect. However, when zero events are observed in one or both treatment arms in a trial, commonly used…

Ori Ossmy; Danyang Han; Patrick MacAlpine; Justine Hoch; Peter Stone; Karen E. Adolph – Developmental Science, 2024
What is the optimal penalty for errors in infant skill learning? Behavioral analyses indicate that errors are frequent but trivial as infants acquire foundational skills. In learning to walk, for example, falling is commonplace but appears to incur only a negligible penalty. Behavioral data, however, cannot reveal whether a low penalty for falling…

Lee, Sooyong; Han, Suhwa; Choi, Seung W. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2022
Response data containing an excessive number of zeros are referred to as zero-inflated data. When differential item functioning (DIF) detection is of interest, zero-inflation can attenuate DIF effects in the total sample and lead to underdetection of DIF items. The current study presents a DIF detection procedure for response data with excess…

Eglington, Luke G.; Pavlik, Philip I., Jr. – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2023
An important component of many Adaptive Instructional Systems (AIS) is a 'Learner Model' intended to track student learning and predict future performance. Predictions from learner models are frequently used in combination with mastery criterion decision rules to make pedagogical decisions. Important aspects of learner models, such as learning…

Sun-Joo Cho; Amanda Goodwin; Matthew Naveiras; Paul De Boeck – Grantee Submission, 2024
Explanatory item response models (EIRMs) have been applied to investigate the effects of person covariates, item covariates, and their interactions in the fields of reading education and psycholinguistics. In practice, it is often assumed that the relationships between the covariates and the logit transformation of item response probability are…

Sun-Joo Cho; Amanda Goodwin; Matthew Naveiras; Jorge Salas – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2024
Despite the growing interest in incorporating response time data into item response models, there has been a lack of research investigating how the effect of speed on the probability of a correct response varies across different groups (e.g., experimental conditions) for various items (i.e., differential response time item analysis). Furthermore,…

Mangiulli, Ivan; Otgaar, Henry; Curci, Antonietta; Jelicic, Marko – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2020
Research suggests that both internal (i.e., lying) and external (i.e., misinformation) factors can affect memory for a crime. We aimed to explore the effects of post-event misinformation on crime-related amnesia claims. We showed participants a mock crime and asked them to either simulate amnesia (simulators) or confess to it (confessors). Next,…

Hoppe, Dorothée B.; Rij, Jacolien; Hendriks, Petra; Ramscar, Michael – Cognitive Science, 2020
Linguistic category learning has been shown to be highly sensitive to linear order, and depending on the task, differentially sensitive to the information provided by preceding category markers ("premarkers," e.g., gendered articles) or succeeding category markers ("postmarkers," e.g., gendered suffixes). Given that numerous…

Sellberg, Charlott; Wiig, Astrid Camilla – Vocations and Learning, 2020
This study examines storytelling episodes in 13 video-recorded and fully transcribed post-simulation debriefings from a maritime navigation course. The aim is to scrutinize the facilitators' practice of telling stories from the sea during debriefings, to explore the organization and inner function of storytelling in debriefing. A combination of…

Dong, Yixiao; Dumas, Denis; Clements, Douglas H.; Sarama, Julie – Journal of Experimental Education, 2023
Dynamic Measurement Modeling (DMM) is a recently-developed measurement framework for gauging developing constructs (e.g., learning capacity) that conventional single-timepoint tests cannot assess. The current project developed a person-specific DMM Trajectory Deviance Index (TDI) that captures the aberrance of an individual's growth from the…

Liceralde, Van Rynald T. – ProQuest LLC, 2021
When we read, errors in oculomotor programming can cause the eyes to land and fixate on different words from what the mind intended. Previous work suggests that these "mislocated fixations" form 10-30% of first-pass fixations in reading eye movement data, which presents theoretical and analytic issues for eyetracking-while-reading…

Lee, Chansoon; Qian, Hong – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2022
Using classical test theory and item response theory, this study applied sequential procedures to a real operational item pool in a variable-length computerized adaptive testing (CAT) to detect items whose security may be compromised. Moreover, this study proposed a hybrid threshold approach to improve the detection power of the sequential…
