In physics education research, instructors and researchers often use research-based assessments (RBAs) to assess students' skills and knowledge. In this paper, we support the development of a mechanics cognitive diagnostic to test and implement effective and equitable pedagogies for physics instruction. Adaptive assessments using cognitive…

Autism spectrum disorder presents as a multifaceted condition characterized by pronounced impairments in social communication and behavioral patterns. Diagnosis hinges upon the expertise of clinicians, comprehensive developmental history, and observation of specific behavioral markers. However, in low-income countries, access to screening tools…

The purpose of this study was to compare the classification accuracy of data produced by the previous year's end-of-year New York state assessment, a computer-adaptive diagnostic assessment ("i-Ready"), and the gating combination of both assessments to predict the rate of students passing the following year's end-of-year state assessment…
