The relation of spatial skills, spatial memory span, and two anxiety types with statistics anxiety in European and North American University students

British Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.
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.

Correcting automatically generated closed captions for online learning materials does not improve student learning outcomes (although students believe it does)

British Journal of Educational Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Lecture capture is ubiquitous in higher education. Lecture capture recordings are typically accompanied by automatically generated closed captions that are sometimes corrected by humans. Students self‐report that they benefit from captions, and particularly human‐corrected captions.

Approximating multidimensionality with asymmetric unidimensional IRT models

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
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.
