Abstract Background & Aims The present two studies investigated the role of spatial cognition in statistics anxiety. The hypothesis that spatial representations and/or visuospatial skills are related to the acquisition of statistics abilities which, when lacking or unused, generate statistics anxiety is examined.

Fighting fire with fire: Prebunking with the use of a plausible meta‐conspiracy framing
Abstract Prebunking can be used to pre‐emptively refute conspiracy narratives. We developed a new approach to prebunking – fighting fire with fire – which introduces a plausible ‘meta‐conspiracy’ suggesting that conspiracy theories are deliberately spread as part of a wider conspiracy.

Identifiability conditions in cognitive diagnosis: Implications for Q‐matrix estimation algorithms
Abstract The Q‐matrix of a cognitively diagnostic assessment (CDA), documenting the item‐attribute associations, is a key component of any CDA. However, the true Q‐matrix underlying a CDA is never known and must be estimated—typically by content experts.

Abstract Hidden Markov diagnostic classification models capture how students' cognitive attributes evolve over time. This paper introduces a Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm for diagnostic classification models that jointly estimates time‐varying Q matrices, latent attributes, item parameters, attribute class proportions and transition ...

In order to get insight into interesting flow phenomena, the traditional work-flow of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) consists of setting up and computing the flow field followed by a consecutive post-processing analysis.

Approximating multidimensionality with asymmetric unidimensional IRT models
Abstract Unidimensional item response theory (IRT) models are widely used even in settings where assessment data exhibit subtle forms of multidimensionality. Recent empirical evidence suggests that when item difficulty is associated with dimensionality, asymmetric item characteristic curves (ICCs) emerge in the unidimensional approximation.

Abstract Although full‐information maximum likelihood (FIML) estimation is widely used for diagnostic classification models (DCMs), its computational efficiency deteriorates sharply in high‐dimensional settings. This scalability challenge is increasingly critical as DCMs are applied to large‐scale assessments, psychological testing and longitudinal ...

Comparison of high-order methods on unstructured grids [PDF]
A high-order Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method is formulated and implemented on the Cranfield University’s 3D unstructured Finite Volume Method (FVM) code (UCNS3D), for both linear and non-linear hyperbolic conservation laws and for test-cases which ...
