Advancing Psychometric Modeling: Innovative Techniques for Educational Assessment (Table 8)

Fri, April 25, 8:00 to 9:30am MDT (8:00 to 9:30am MDT), The Colorado Convention Center, Floor: Ballroom Level, Four Seasons Ballroom 4

Session Type: Roundtable Session

Abstract

This session showcases cutting-edge research in psychometric modeling techniques for educational assessment. Presentations cover a range of advanced methodologies, including Bayesian Structural Equation Modeling, person-fit analysis in high-stakes alternative educational testing, comparative approaches to measurement invariance estimation, variance partitioning methods for noncognitive measures, and the development of a multidimensional graded testlet response model. These studies collectively demonstrate the power of sophisticated modeling techniques in addressing critical measurement issues such as model fit, response patterns, group invariance, and local item dependence. The session offers valuable insights for researchers and practitioners seeking to enhance the validity and reliability of educational and psychological assessments through innovative modeling approaches.
