Due to the low-stakes nature of these assessments, students may exhibit disengaged behaviors, such as rapid guessing and item omissions. Most existing studies in cognitive diagnosis models assume that item responses are reflections of students' proficiency without considering their engagement levels. This study proposes a disengaged behavior cognitive diagnosis model (DB-CDM) that accounts for both disengaged and engaged behaviors simultaneously. We examined the performance of the DB-CDM through simulation and empirical studies. The simulation showed that the item parameters of the DB-CDM were recovered well, especially when the sample size was large and the proportion of disengaged students was small. The DB-CDM can also accurately identify disengaged students, even under some unfavorable conditions involving a large number of disengaged students. By comparing DB-CDM with the compensatory reparameterized unified model in terms of attribute classifications, we observed that the DB-CDM yielded similar if not higher attribute classifications. In the real data analysis, we found that engaged students had a lower probability of omission and guessing and a higher probability of exhibiting solution behavior compared to disengaged students. This paper provides some initial evidence to support the use of DB-CDM when disengaged behaviors occur.","PeriodicalId":8717,"journal":{"name":"Behavior Research Methods","volume":"57 8","pages":"213"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144537950","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we investigate the accuracy and precision of both gaze and vergence measurements using a stereoscopic eye-tracking system. Previous studies have evaluated stereoscopic eye-trackers for gaze eccentricities up to 16°. We validated a custom-built stereoscopic eye-tracker with two cameras and two infrared light sources for gaze eccentricities up to 21°. Additionally, we studied the impact of fixation distance and pupil size on vergence accuracy. Participants with normal binocular vision (N = 8) performed fixation tasks, enabling the assessment of both gaze and vergence errors. The stereoscopic system provided gaze estimates with a mean absolute error (MAE) of less than 1° within the central visual field. However, the accuracy decreased for peripheral angles larger than 14°. We found a MAE of 0.89 ± 0.58° in measuring vergence and a strong linear association between target vergence and measured vergence, with a slope of 0.99 ± 0.05. In contrast to previous studies using single-camera eye-trackers, we found no systematic influence of pupil size on the vergence measurements. Although there was high agreement between estimated and ground truth vergence in the central field, the system did struggle to maintain accuracy at larger eccentricities. This limitation arises primarily from the loss of reliable glints rather than technical constraints, indicating the need for alternative approaches to enhance accuracy in wider fields of view.","PeriodicalId":8717,"journal":{"name":"Behavior Research Methods","volume":"57 8","pages":"214"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12213999/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144537951","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Measures such as arm entries and total time spent within the arm are conventionally used, but their analysis often produces inconsistent inferences about the level of anxiety-like behaviour being observed. This inconsistency occurs because the measures do not correlate with one another, raising the question of how validly they capture both the exploratory and avoidance motivations that typify anxiety-like behaviour. Given this inconsistency, we propose a new measure, Novel Exploration Growth, that captures avoidance and exploratory behaviours within the maze. The growth of novel exploration tracks the first visit to discrete areas of the maze over time. The absolute amount of novel exploration, combined with the phasic nature of the exploration, reveals behavioural phenotypes with both avoidance and exploration quantified in a single time series. By addressing both motivations evoked by the maze through a single coherent measure, we provide a superior estimation of anxiety-like behaviour and resolve inconsistencies that arise when applying conventional measures alone.","PeriodicalId":8717,"journal":{"name":"Behavior Research Methods","volume":"57 8","pages":"210"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12209025/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144526310","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Researchers who want to manipulate similarity between images (e.g., in a visual search, categorization, or memory task) often use the aforementioned methods, which require substantial, additional data collection prior to the primary task of interest. To alleviate this problem, we have developed an openly available database that uses multidimensional scaling (MDS) to model the similarity among 1200 items spread across 20 object categories, thereby allowing researchers to utilize similarity ratings within and between categories. In this article, we document the development of this database, including (1) collecting similarity ratings using the spatial arrangement method across two sites, (2) our computational approach with MDS, and (3) validation of the MDS space by comparing SpAM-derived distances to direct similarity ratings. The database and similarity data provided between items (and across categories) will be useful to researchers wanting to manipulate or control similarity in their studies.","PeriodicalId":8717,"journal":{"name":"Behavior Research Methods","volume":"57 8","pages":"212"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12208956/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144526311","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the computational psycholinguistics approach has recently drawn attention to increasing the reproducibility of clustering analysis, such an approach is not available in all languages. To make the computational approach available in the Japanese language, we constructed a Japanese latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) model. Our LDA model enables researchers and clinicians to objectively quantify the associative relationships of words, thereby making it possible to automatically detect semantic clusters. We conducted the semantic VFT with healthy young Japanese adults to examine the validity of our LDA model. We performed clustering analyses using the computational approach with our LDA model and the conventional manual approach with human coders. The results showed that the LDA model identified semantic clusters, as did the human coders. In addition, we demonstrated for the first time that response intervals within a cluster were significantly shorter than those outside of clusters, regardless of the clustering approaches. This indicates that both approaches reflect a broadly accepted assumption that closer semantic relations require less processing time. However, LDA-based clustering produced, on average, larger clusters than human-based clustering did, indicating that the LDA model captured semantic relationships between words that human coders would not recognize. Taken together, the present results demonstrated the validity of our LDA model. We hope that our LDA model fosters the use of the computational linguistic approach in semantic VFTs with Japanese participants.","PeriodicalId":8717,"journal":{"name":"Behavior Research Methods","volume":"57 8","pages":"209"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12209035/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144526308","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we show how structured collections of open data can be useful, as they allow a larger community of researchers easy access to a large body of data from their own research area. We introduce the Attentional Control Data Collection, a SQL database for attentional control experiments. We illustrate the structure of the database, how it can be easily accessed using a Shiny app and an R-package, and how researchers can contribute data from their studies to the database. Finally, we conduct our own initial analysis of the 64 data sets in our database, assessing the reliability of individual differences. The analysis highlights that reliability is generally low, and provides insights into planning future studies. For example, researchers should consider increasing the number of trials per person and condition to at least 400.

Research progress has been made on MFC computerized adaptive testing (CAT) to improve testing efficiency. CAT enhances efficiency by successively selecting items that are most informative at each respondent's trait estimate. In MFC CAT, this causes some forced-choice items and the statements composing them to be frequently exposed while others are rarely used, which adversely affects test security and costs. This research developed an exposure control method for MFC CAT based on the multi-unidimensional pairwise preference model (MUPP; Stark et al. Applied Psychological Measurement, 29,184-203, 2005). Because the method was intended to prevent the overuse of the most informative items and statements, it tended to decrease overall measurement accuracy and precision. Thus, a second purpose of this research was to examine the extent to which these losses in accuracy and precision might be offset by incorporating collateral information. The effectiveness of the exposure control method and the incorporation of collateral information in MFC CAT were investigated in a Monte Carlo study that also manipulated test length and the correlation between dimensions. A byproduct of this research was an MFC CAT algorithm that improves test security and cost-effectiveness, while simultaneously maintaining measurement accuracy and precision of noncognitive constructs.","PeriodicalId":8717,"journal":{"name":"Behavior Research Methods","volume":"57 7","pages":"207"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144473874","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The comprehensive coverage of simplified Chinese characters in the present study added to the existing studies by allowing for a more fine-grained investigation of the effects of a variety of character attributes on visual processing. We illustrated these advantages by performing virtual experiments on visual complexity and on the interplay between neighborhood size and regularity. Our results indicated that characters with higher visual complexity were harder to recognize, in line with previous findings, while regular characters took longer to process when the neighborhood size was small. In addition, we present a new evaluation of the interaction between character frequency and subcomponent frequency, resulting in a three-way interaction among character frequency, radical frequency, and residual component frequency. Extending the investigation of subcomponent frequency to the analysis of pseudocharacters, we found that the interaction of radical frequency and residual component frequency also modulated pseudocharacter rejection.
