Wafa, Mohammad Nasim; Hussani, Sayed Abdul Moqim; Pazhman, Jumakhan – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2020
Cognitive diagnosis models (CDMs) are restricted latent class models that can be used to analyze response data from educational or psychological tests. The Deterministic Input Noisy Output "AND" gate (DINA) model and the Deterministic Input Noisy Output "OR" gate (DINO) model there are two popular cognitive diagnosis models…

Lu, Yujie; Zhang, Xuan; Zhou, Xinlin – School Psychology International, 2023
Gender differences in math-related professional achievements have been identified as a worldwide problem. Academic achievement assessments, however, have repeatedly revealed gender similarities. The observed gender similarity might be due to biased assessments that heavily rely on reading skills, which favors girls. The current study analyzed 29…

Kang, Hana; Cogan, Leland – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2022
Students' socioeconomic status (SES) is not only directly related to mathematics achievement but also indirectly related to mathematics achievement through their unequal opportunity to learn (OTL). Despite a plethora of studies about how mathematics achievement is associated with SES and OTL, few systematic studies have examined the differential…
