Estimation of Models in a Rasch Family for Polytomous Items and Multiple Latent Variables [PDF]

The Rasch family of models considered in this paper includes models for polytomous items and multiple correlated latent traits, as well as for dichotomous items and a single latent variable. An R package is described that computes estimates of parameters

Closed‐Loop Targeted Memory Reactivation During Sleep Spindles Enhances Motor Memory Consolidation

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep spindles are thought to facilitate motor memory consolidation by reactivating recently acquired memory traces during non‐rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, yet most human evidence is correlational. Using a closed‐loop targeted memory reactivation (CL‐TMR) protocol, this study tested whether auditory cueing time‐locked to spindles enhances ...

Second Language Interactional Competence in Roleplay: Comparing Generative Artificial Intelligence and Human Interlocutors

Language Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract This study explores the potential of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) as an alternative to human interlocutors for assessing interactional competence (IC) in a second language (L2). Thirty L2 English speakers completed a 6‐item roleplay task designed to elicit refusals of requests, invitations, and offers, interacting with both a ...

Children's Multiplicative Reasoning: Differences Across Grade Level and Tasks for Multiplication and Division

School Science and Mathematics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multiplicative reasoning is a fundamental construct for children to engage meaningfully with multiplication and division. However, various reports suggest that elementary and middle school students in the United States lack the necessary multiplicative reasoning to engage in relevant topics.

Good questions, sound measurement? Item-writing quality, psychometric functioning, and competence-level alignment of AI-generated multiple-choice assessments in chemistry education

Frontiers in Education
Generative AI is increasingly used in education, yet evidence on the quality and validity of AI-generated assessments in science remains limited. This study examines whether large language models can support the development of high-quality multiple ...

Choose the Right Test: Validity Claims for the Computer Adaptive Test—Problem Solving Measure (CAT‐PSM)

School Science and Mathematics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents validity evidence for the Computer Adaptive Test–Problem Solving Measure (CAT‐PSM), a computer‐adaptive assessment of middle grades mathematical problem‐solving performance. Targeted to grades 6–8, the CAT‐PSM draws on content aligned with the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM).
