Fail, Stefanie; Schober, Michael F.; Conrad, Frederick G. – International Journal of Social Research Methodology, 2021
To explore socially desirable responding in telephone surveys, this study examines response latencies in answers to 27 questions in a corpus of 319 audio-recorded voice interviews on iPhones. Response latencies were compared when respondents (a) answered questions on sensitive vs. nonsensitive topics (as classified by online raters); (b) produced…

Cognitive Diagnosis Models and Automated Test Assembly: An Approach Incorporating Response Times
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed

Finkelman, Matthew D.; de la Torre, Jimmy; Karp, Jeremy A. – International Journal of Testing, 2020
Cognitive diagnosis models (CDMs) have been studied as a means of providing detailed diagnostic information about the skills that have been mastered, and the skills that have not, by examinees. Prior research has examined the use of automated test assembly (ATA) alongside CDMs; however, no previous study has investigated how to perform ATA when a…

Boehm, Udo; Matzke, Dora; Gretton, Matthew; Castro, Spencer; Cooper, Joel; Skinner, Michael; Strayer, David; Heathcote, Andrew – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2021
Human operators often experience large fluctuations in cognitive workload over seconds timescales that can lead to sub-optimal performance, ranging from overload to neglect. Adaptive automation could potentially address this issue, but to do so it needs to be aware of real-time changes in operators' spare cognitive capacity, so it can provide help…

Visual Search Behavior and Performance in Luggage Screening: Effects of Time Pressure, Automation Aid, and Target Expectancy
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Rieger, Tobias; Heilmann, Lydia; Manzey, Dietrich – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2021
Visual inspection of luggage using X-ray technology at airports is a time-sensitive task that is often supported by automated systems to increase performance and reduce workload. The present study evaluated how time pressure and automation support influence visual search behavior and performance in a simulated luggage screening task. Moreover, we…

Cognitive Load in Voice Therapy Carry-Over Exercises
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Iwarsson, Jenny; Morris, David Jackson; Balling, Laura Winther – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2017
Purpose: The cognitive load generated by online speech production may vary with the nature of the speech task. This article examines 3 speech tasks used in voice therapy carry-over exercises, in which a patient is required to adopt and automatize new voice behaviors, ultimately in daily spontaneous communication. Method: Twelve subjects produced…

Implementation of an Automated Grading System with an Adaptive Learning Component to Affect Student Feedback and Response Time
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Matthews, Kevin; Janicki, Thomas; He, Ling; Patterson, Laurie – Journal of Information Systems Education, 2012
This research focuses on the development and implementation of an adaptive learning and grading system with a goal to increase the effectiveness and quality of feedback to students. By utilizing various concepts from established learning theories, the goal of this research is to improve the quantity, quality, and speed of feedback as it pertains…
