Matthew J. Madison; Seungwon Chung; Junok Kim; Laine P. Bradshaw – Grantee Submission, 2023
Recent developments have enabled the modeling of longitudinal assessment data in a diagnostic classification model (DCM) framework. These longitudinal DCMs were developed to provide measures of student growth on a discrete scale in the form of attribute mastery transitions, thereby supporting categorical and criterion-referenced interpretations of…

Zhan, Peida; Liu, Yaohui; Yu, Zhaohui; Pan, Yanfang – Applied Measurement in Education, 2023
Many educational and psychological studies have shown that the development of students is generally step-by-step (i.e. ordinal development) to a specific level. This study proposed a novel longitudinal learning diagnosis model with polytomous attributes to track students' ordinal development in learning. Using the concept of polytomous attributes…

Beechey, Timothy – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2023
Purpose: This article provides a tutorial introduction to ordinal pattern analysis, a statistical analysis method designed to quantify the extent to which hypotheses of relative change across experimental conditions match observed data at the level of individuals. This method may be a useful addition to familiar parametric statistical methods…

Adam J. Reeger – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Student growth percentiles (SGPs) have become a common means to measure and report on student academic growth for state education accountability, and some states have adopted SGP cutscores as a means of classifying student growth into categories like "high/medium/low" growth. It has therefore become important to understand properties of…

Hsu, Chia-Ling; Chen, Yi-Hsin; Wu, Yi-Jhen – Practical Assessment, Research & Evaluation, 2023
Correct specifications of hierarchical attribute structures in analyses using diagnostic classification models (DCMs) are pivotal because misspecifications can lead to biased parameter estimations and inaccurate classification profiles. This research is aimed to demonstrate DCM analyses with various hierarchical attribute structures via Bayesian…

Grund, Simon; Lüdtke, Oliver; Robitzsch, Alexander – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2023
Multiple imputation (MI) is a popular method for handling missing data. In education research, it can be challenging to use MI because the data often have a clustered structure that need to be accommodated during MI. Although much research has considered applications of MI in hierarchical data, little is known about its use in cross-classified…

Korchi, Adil; Dardor, Mohamed; Mabrouk, El Houssine – Education and Information Technologies, 2020
Learning techniques have proven their capacity to treat large amount of data. Most statistical learning approaches use specific size learning sets and create static models. Withal, in certain some situations such as incremental or active learning the learning process can work with only a smal amount of data. In this case, the search for algorithms…

The Reliability of the Posterior Probability of Skill Attainment in Diagnostic Classification Models
Johnson, Matthew S.; Sinharay, Sandip – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2020
One common score reported from diagnostic classification assessments is the vector of posterior means of the skill mastery indicators. As with any assessment, it is important to derive and report estimates of the reliability of the reported scores. After reviewing a reliability measure suggested by Templin and Bradshaw, this article suggests three…

Hu, Mingjia; Nosofsky, Robert M. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2022
In a novel version of the classic dot-pattern prototype-distortion paradigm of category learning, Homa et al. (2019) tested a condition in which individual training instances never repeated, and observed results that they claimed severely challenged exemplar models of classification and recognition. Among the results was a dissociation in which…

Do Additional Features Help or Hurt Category Learning? The Curse of Dimensionality in Human Learners
Vong, Wai Keen; Hendrickson, Andrew T.; Navarro, Danielle J.; Perfors, Amy – Cognitive Science, 2019
The curse of dimensionality, which has been widely studied in statistics and machine learning, occurs when additional features cause the size of the feature space to grow so quickly that learning classification rules becomes increasingly difficult. How do people overcome the curse of dimensionality when acquiring real-world categories that have…

Omar, Abdulfattah – Journal of Language and Linguistic Studies, 2021
In recent years, numerous computational methods have been developed that have been widely used in humanities and literary studies. In spite of the potential of such methods in providing workable solutions to various inherent problems in research within these domains, including selectivity, objectivity, and replicability, very little empirical work…

Pang, Bo; Nijkamp, Erik; Wu, Ying Nian – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2020
This review covers the core concepts and design decisions of TensorFlow. TensorFlow, originally created by researchers at Google, is the most popular one among the plethora of deep learning libraries. In the field of deep learning, neural networks have achieved tremendous success and gained wide popularity in various areas. This family of models…

Nam, Yeji; Hong, Sehee – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2021
This study investigated the extent to which class-specific parameter estimates are biased by the within-class normality assumption in nonnormal growth mixture modeling (GMM). Monte Carlo simulations for nonnormal GMM were conducted to analyze and compare two strategies for obtaining unbiased parameter estimates: relaxing the within-class normality…

Culpepper, Steven Andrew; Chen, Yinghan – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2019
Exploratory cognitive diagnosis models (CDMs) estimate the Q matrix, which is a binary matrix that indicates the attributes needed for affirmative responses to each item. Estimation of Q is an important next step for improving classifications and broadening application of CDMs. Prior research primarily focused on an exploratory version of the…

Young, Nicholas T.; Caballero, Marcos D. – Journal of Educational Data Mining, 2021
We encounter variables with little variation often in educational data mining (EDM) due to the demographics of higher education and the questions we ask. Yet, little work has examined how to analyze such data. Therefore, we conducted a simulation study using logistic regression, penalized regression, and random forest. We systematically varied the…
