Using Network Psychometrics to Analyze Student Misconceptions in Academic Tests

• In Event: GSIC Poster Session I

Abstract

Typical analyses of educational assessments only use the information of whether a student got a question correct, losing all information told by which options they did not choose. In this proposal, we introduce the use of network analysis to investigate how option-level information can be examined.
