DOI: 10.1177/01466216231165315
Abstract: In this article, a testlet hierarchical diagnostic classification model (TH-DCM) was introduced to take both attribute hierarchies and item bundles into account. The expectation-maximization algorithm with an analytic dimension reduction technique was used for parameter… read more here.

DOI: 10.3102/1076998620931094
Abstract: In cognitive diagnostic assessment, multiple fine-grained attributes are measured simultaneously. Attribute hierarchies are considered important structural features of cognitive diagnostic models (CDMs) that provide useful information about the nature of attributes. Templin and Bradshaw first… read more here.

DOI: 10.3102/10769986241268906
Abstract: Attribute hierarchies are commonly assumed to exist in many fields of psychological and educational assessment. Several theory-driven and data-driven approaches have been used to validate or explore attribute hierarchies, such as validating attribute hierarchies in… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fpsyg.2025.1562807
Abstract: Cognitive diagnosis models (CDMs) are restricted latent class models that are widely used in educational and psychological fields. Attribute hierarchy, as an important structural feature of the CDM, can provide critical information for inferring examinees’… read more here.
