Kai Liu, Zhichen Guo, Qin Wang, Wang Daxun, Cai Yan, Tu Dongbo, Wang Daxun, Cai Yan, Tu Dongbo
2025-12-09 ChinaXiv: chinaxiv-202512.00054 Mixed Source

In cognitive diagnostic assessment, differential item functioning (DIF) detection is an essential technical means for evaluating test fairness and measurement validity. However, existing cognitive diagnostic DIF detection methods are limited to main-effect DIF detection from the perspective of a sin…

Through a test simulation study where polytomous items are scored non-continuously, the results show that the bias and root mean square error (RMSE) of item parameters under the Logistic weighted model are relatively small. This indicates that the Logistic weighted model can simulate non-continuous …

Xiaojuan Tang, Mao Mengmeng, Li Yu, DING Shuliang, Peng Zhixia, Tang Xiaojuan, Li Yu
2025-09-08 ChinaXiv: chinaxiv-202509.00062 Mixed Source

Attribute levels (dichotomous attributes and polytomous attributes) and item ideal scoring methods (0-1 scoring and polytomous scoring) constitute two important dimensions in cognitive diagnostic test design. Polytomous attribute tests can provide more detailed diagnostic information, while polytomo…

A Comparative Study of Item Selection Strategies for CD-CAT Based on the Nominal Response Model

Zhang Jie, Luo Zhaosheng, Yu Xiaofeng, Qin Chunying, Luo Zhaosheng, Yu Xiaofeng
2022-05-12 ChinaXiv: chinaxiv-202205.00030

Currently, most research on CD-CAT has been conducted based on 0-1 scoring data, whereas in actual educational and psychological testing, there also exists a large amount of nominal response data. This study develops a CD-CAT suitable for nominal response data (hereinafter referred to as NCD-CAT) ba…

Research on Person Fit in Cognitive Diagnostic Assessment

Yu Xiaofeng, Tang Qian, Qin Chunying, Li Yujun, YU Xiaofeng
2022-05-12 ChinaXiv: chinaxiv-202204.00026

Typically, cognitive diagnosis necessitates diagnostic evaluation of examinees through cognitive diagnosis models. The validity of diagnostic results generated by cognitive diagnosis models depends on the congruence between examinees' response patterns and the selected model. Consequently, when eval…

A Novel Evolutionary Algorithm-Based Method for Optimal Sample Size Estimation in Generalizability Theory: Comparison with Three Traditional Methods

LI Guangming, Qin Yue, Qin Yue
2022-05-03 ChinaXiv: chinaxiv-202205.00014

Generalizability Theory is widely applied in the field of psychological and educational measurement. How to achieve optimal reliability of measurement procedures under budget constraints is an important issue that researchers need to consider, and this problem can be transformed into one of optimal …

A Study of Person Fit Based on Residual Statistics in Polytomously Scored Tests
