  • Cognitive Psychology and Information Processing

    An Introduction

    by R. Lachman, J. L. Lachman, E. C. Butterfield ...
    First published in 1979. Basic research, at its essence, is exploration of the unknown. When it is successful, isolated pieces of reality are deciphered and described. Most of the history of an empirical discipline consists of probes into this darkness-some bold, others careful and systematic. Most of these efforts are initially incorrect. At best, they are distant approximations to a reality that ... Read more

  • Test Theory for A New Generation of Tests

    Edited by Norman Frederiksen, Robert J. Mislevy, Isaac I. Bejar ...
    The editors of this volume suggest that there are missing elements in the conceptualization upon which standard test theory is based. Those elements are models for just how people know what they know and do what they can do, and the ways in which they increase these capacities. Different models are useful for different purposes; therefore, broader or alternative student models may be appropriate. ... Read more

  • Toward a Unified Theory of Problem Solving

    Views From the Content Domains

    Edited by Mike U. Smith ...
    One of the most active fields of educational research in recent years has been the investigation of problem-solving performance. Two opposing views of current research -- one suggesting that there are more differences than similarities within different domains, and the other stating that there is great similarity -- lead to a variety of questions:* Is problem solving a single construct?* Are there ...

  • Item Generation for Test Development

    Edited by Sidney H. Irvine, Patrick C. Kyllonen ...
    Since the mid-80s several laboratories around the world have been developing techniques for the operational use of tests derived from item-generation. According to the experts, the major thrust of test development in the next decade will be the harnessing of item generation technology to the production of computer developed tests. This is expected to revolutionize the way in which tests are ... Read more

    Series series Scientific Psychology Series
    The plan for this volume emerged during the international Leipzig conference commemorating the centenary of the death of Gustav Fechner. The contributors suggested that while many features of modern psychological theory were anticipated by Fechner, many new theoretical approaches owe much more to him than often is realized. As such, they decided to honor Fechner by evaluating his own contribution ... Read more
