Multimodal Engagement Assessment in Children During Invented Story Paradigm With a Social Robot

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A multimodal framework is proposed to assess children's engagement during storytelling interactions with a social robot. Gaze, physiological, and behavioral data are combined and validated against observer ratings. An automated gaze‐labeling strategy is introduced, and supervised classifiers achieve high accuracy. The study supports scalable engagement

pcIRT: An R Package for Polytomous and Continuous Rasch Models

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Software, 2018
A key task in psychological assessment is the scaling of new psychological tests and questionnaires. Item response theory (IRT) is a well-established framework for this area of research.

Modeling Multiple Item Context Effects With Generalized Linear Mixed Models

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2019
Item context effects refer to the impact of features of a test on an examinee's item responses. These effects cannot be explained by the abilities measured by the test. Investigations typically focus on only a single type of item context effects, such as

A MATLAB Package for Markov Chain Monte Carlo with a Multi-Unidimensional IRT Model [PDF]

open access: yes
Unidimensional item response theory (IRT) models are useful when each item is designed to measure some facet of a unified latent trait. In practical applications, items are not necessarily measuring the same underlying trait, and hence the more general ...
