Adaptive item-based learning environments based on the item response theory: possibilities and challenges
The popularity of intelligent tutoring systems (ITSs) is increasing rapidly. In order to make learning environments more efficient, researchers have been exploring the possibility of an automatic adaptation of the learning environment to the learner or the context. One of the possible adaptation techniques is adaptive item sequencing by matching the difficulty of the items to the learner’s know...
متن کاملItem response theory for measurement validity
Item response theory (IRT) is an important method of assessing the validity of measurement scales that is underutilized in the field of psychiatry. IRT describes the relationship between a latent trait (e.g., the construct that the scale proposes to assess), the properties of the items in the scale, and respondents' answers to the individual items. This paper introduces the basic premise, assum...
متن کاملAn Adaptive Numerical Integration Algorithm for Simplices
A globally adaptive algorithm for numerical multiple integration over an n-dimensional simplex is described. The algorithm is based on a subdivision strategy that chooses for subdivision at each stage the subregion (of the input simplex) with the largest estimated error. This subregion is divided in half by bisecting an edge. The edge is chosen using information about the smoothness of the inte...
متن کاملRandomized Item Response Theory Models
The randomized response (RR) technique is often used to obtain answers on sensitive questions. A new method is developed to measure latent variables using the RR technique because direct questioning leads to biased results. Within the RR technique is the probability of the true response modeled by an item response theory (IRT) model. The RR technique links the observed item response with the tr...
