Abstract
En 中文
Most existing cognitive diagnosis models (CDMs) assume attributes are binary latent variables, which may be oversimplified in practice. This article introduces a higher-order CDM with ordinal attributes for dichotomous response data. The proposed model can either incorporate domain experts' knowledge or learn from the data empirically by regularizing model parameters. A sequential item response model was employed for joint attribute distribution to accommodate the sequential mastery mechanism. The expectation-maximization algorithm was employed for model estimation, and a simulation study was conducted to assess the recovery of model parameters. A set of real data was also analyzed to assess the viability of the proposed model in practice.
