{"pk":21319,"title":"Using Psychometrics to Improve Cognitive Models--and Theory","subtitle":null,"abstract":"The field of psychometrics has undergone substantial evolution over the past several decades, both in terms of advances in methodology and improved software and hardware for deploying new methods. Despite these strides, many of these developments have not been integrated into the broader field of psychology, as highlighted by Embretson (2005) and Borsboom (2006). Understanding and incorporating these psychometric advances is crucial to enable cognitive scientists to address growing concerns about validity and reliability, as well as to develop robust theoretical frameworks for understanding cognition.","language":"eng","license":{"name":"","short_name":"","text":null,"url":""},"keywords":[{"word":"Psychology; Cognitive development; Skill acquisition and learning; Computational Modeling; Statistics"}],"section":"Workshops","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/4b7364wq","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"Alvin","middle_name":"Wei Ming","last_name":"Tan","name_suffix":"","institution":"Stanford University","department":""},{"first_name":"George","middle_name":"","last_name":"Kachergis","name_suffix":"","institution":"Stanford University","department":""},{"first_name":"Michael","middle_name":"C.","last_name":"Frank","name_suffix":"","institution":"Stanford University","department":""}],"date_submitted":null,"date_accepted":null,"date_published":"2024-01-01T19:00:00+01:00","render_galley":null,"galleys":[{"label":"PDF","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/21319/galley/10918/download/"},{"label":"PDF","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/21319/galley/15683/download/"},{"label":"PDF","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/21319/galley/21764/download/"}]}
