Hierarchical multinomial models 1 Running head: HIERARCHICAL MULTINOMIAL MODELS Hierarchical Multinomial Processing Tree Models: A Latent-Class Approach
Multinomial processing tree models are widely used in many areas of psychology. Their application relies on the assumption of parameter homogeneity, that is, on the assumption that participants do not differ in their parameter values. Tests for parameter homogeneity are proposed that can be routinely used as part of multinomial model analyses to defend the assumption. If parameter homogeneity i...
متن کاملMinimum description length model selection of multinomial processing tree models.
Multinomial processing tree (MPT) modeling has been widely and successfully applied as a statistical methodology for measuring hypothesized latent cognitive processes in selected experimental paradigms. In this article, we address the problem of selecting the best MPT model from a set of scientifically plausible MPT models, given observed data. We introduce a minimum description length (MDL) ba...
متن کاملCognitive psychometrics: assessing storage and retrieval deficits in special populations with multinomial processing tree models.
This article demonstrates how multinomial processing tree models can be used as assessment tools to measure cognitive deficits in clinical populations. This is illustrated with a model developed by W. H. Batchelder and D. M. Riefer (1980) that separately measures storage and retrieval processes in memory. The validity of the model is tested in 2 experiments, which show that presentation rate af...
متن کاملUsing recursive partitioning to account for parameter heterogeneity in multinomial processing tree models.
In multinomial processing tree (MPT) models, individual differences between the participants in a study can lead to heterogeneity of the model parameters. While subject covariates may explain these differences, it is often unknown in advance how the parameters depend on the available covariates, that is, which variables play a role at all, interact, or have a nonlinear influence, etc. Therefore...
متن کاملExtending Tree Models to Split Networks
In this chapter we take statistical models designed for trees and adapt them for split networks, a more general class of mathematical structures. The models we propose provide natural swing-bridges between trees, filling in gaps in the probability simplex. There are many reasons why we might want to do this. Firstly, the split networks provide a graphical representation of phylogenetic uncertai...
