Proceedings of the 28th International Conference on Computational Linguistics
This paper brings together approaches from the fields of NLP and psychometric measurement to address the problem of predicting examinee proficiency from responses to short-answer questions (SAQs).
ACM SIGACCESS Accessibility and Computing
In this article, we first summarise STA (Scanpath Trend Analysis) with its application in autism detection, and then discuss future directions for this research.
Evaluation & the Health Professions: Volume: 43 issue: 3, page(s): 149-158

Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics: Vol 45, Issue 5, 2020
This article describes a method for identifying and reporting unexpectedly high or low subscores by comparing each examinee’s observed subscore with a discrete probability distribution of subscores conditional on the examinee’s overall ability.
Handbook of Automated Scoring
In this chapter we describe the historical background that led to development of the simulations and the subsequent refinement of the construct that occurred as the interface was being developed. We then describe the evolution of the automated scoring procedures from linear regression modeling to rule-based procedures.
