Some exact tests for manifest properties of latent trait models
Item response theory is one of the modern test theories with applications in educational and psychological testing. Recent developments made it possible to characterize some desired properties in terms of a collection of manifest ones, so that hypothesis tests on these traits can, in principle, be performed. But the existing test methodology is based on asymptotic approximation, which is imprac...
متن کاملThe Comparison of Two Models for Evaluation of Pre-internship Comprehensive Test: Classical and Latent Trait
Introduction: Despite the widespread use of pre-internship comprehensive test and its importance in medical students’ assessment, there is a paucity of the studies that can provide a systematic psychometric analysis of the items of this test. Thus, the present study sought to assess March 2011 pre-internship test using classical and latent trait models and compare their results. Methods: In th...
متن کاملMulticomponent latent trait models for complex tasks.
Contemporary views on cognitive theory (e.g., Sternberg and Perez, 2005) regard typical measurement tasks, such as ability and achievement test items, multidimensional, rather than unidimensional. Assessing the levels and the sources of multidimensionality in an item domain is important for item selection as well as for item revision and development. In this paper, multicomponent latent trait m...
متن کاملTesting fit of latent trait models for responses and response times in tests
The joint analysis of responses and response times in psychological tests with latent trait models has become popular recently. Although numerous such models have been proposed so far there are only few tests of model fit. In this manuscript a new approach to the evaluation of model fit is presented. The approach is based on the differences between the observed frequencies of positive or negati...
متن کاملSimple and Effective Multi-Paragraph Reading Comprehension
We consider the problem of adapting neural paragraph-level question answering models to the case where entire documents are given as input. Our proposed solution trains models to produce well calibrated confidence scores for their results on individual paragraphs. We sample multiple paragraphs from the documents during training, and use a sharednormalization training objective that encourages t...
