Starns, Jeffrey J.; Ma, Qiuli – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2018
The two-high-threshold (2HT) model of recognition memory assumes that people make memory errors because they fail to retrieve information from memory and make a guess, whereas the continuous unequal-variance (UV) model and the low-threshold (LT) model assume that people make memory errors because they retrieve misleading information from memory.…

Sinharay, Sandip – Grantee Submission, 2018
Tatsuoka (1984) suggested several extended caution indices and their standardized versions that have been used as person-fit statistics by researchers such as Drasgow, Levine, and McLaughlin (1987), Glas and Meijer (2003), and Molenaar and Hoijtink (1990). However, these indices are only defined for tests with dichotomous items. This paper extends…

Cayton-Hodges, Gabrielle A.; Fife, James – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2018
Once a novelty, Digitally-Based Assessments (DBA) have become commonplace in the USA. With mathematics, it is often a necessity to include items that require the student to input a mathematical formula, equation, or expression. Many of these responses, especially in the upper grades, cannot be input with a standard keyboard, but must use some type…

Xiao, Wenqi; Park, Moonyoung – International Journal of Computer-Assisted Language Learning and Teaching, 2021
With the advancement of automatic speech recognition (ASR) technology, ASR-based pronunciation assessment can diagnose learners' pronunciation problems. Meanwhile, ASR-based pronunciation training allows more opportunities for pronunciation practice. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of ASR technology in diagnosing English…

Rzepka, Nathalie; Müller, Hans-Georg; Simbeck, Katharina – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2021
The ability to spell correctly is a fundamental skill for participating in society and engaging in professional work. In the German language, the capitalization of nouns and proper names presents major difficulties for both native and nonnative learners, since the definition of what is a noun varies according to one's linguistic perspective. In…

Micai, Martina; Vulchanova, Mila; Saldaña, David – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2019
Reading monitoring is poorly explored, but it may have an impact on well-documented reading comprehension difficulties in autism. This study explores reading monitoring through the impact of instructions and different error types on reading behavior. Individuals with autism and matched controls read correct sentences and sentences containing…

Williams, Peter; Shekhar, Sidharth – Education Sciences, 2019
Mobile phone technology is becoming ubiquitous. However, a number of unique usability challenges are still unresolved, including small screen size, device orientation changes, and an array of interaction methods (tap, flick, pinch, etc.) These challenges may be particularly acute for people with learning disabilities. This study examined the…

Sturm, Jessica L. – Foreign Language Annals, 2019
A body of previous work in second- and foreign language pronunciation instruction (e.g., Lord, 2005; Miller, 2012) has shown that explicit phonetic and pronunciation instruction is beneficial. However, Olson (2014) noted that just a few minutes per week of instruction are devoted to pronunciation in most classrooms. What is the effect of such…
