Accurate Assessment via Process Data

Accurate assessment of a student's ability is the key task of a test. Assessments based on final responses are the standard. As the infrastructure advances, substantially more information is observed. One of such instances is the process data that is collected by computer-based interactive items and contain a student's detailed interactive processes. In this paper, we show both theoretically and with simulated and empirical data that appropriately including such information in the assessment will substantially improve relevant assessment precision.
