Improved Models for Password Guessing
One approach to measuring password strength is to assess the probability it will be cracked in a fixed set of guesses. The current state of the art in password guessing employs a first-order Markov model that makes several assumptions about the distribution of passwords. We present two novel approaches to modeling password distributions that remove some of these assumptions. First, a layered Ma...
متن کاملEmbedding Irt in Structural Equation Models: a Comparison with Regression Based on Irt Scores
This paper reviews the problems associated with using IRT-based latent variable scores for analytical modeling, discusses the connection between IRT and SEM-based latent regression modelling for discrete data, and compares regression parameter estimates obtained using predicted IRT scores and standardized Number-Right scores in OLS regression with regression estimates obtained using the combine...
متن کاملLIRT: SAS macros for longitudinal IRT models
Item response theory models are often applied when a number items are used to measure a unidimensional latent variable. Originally proposed within educational research, they are now also being used when focus is on e.g. physical functioning or psychological well-being. Modern applications often need more general models, typically models for multidimensional latent variables or longitudinal mode...
متن کاملComparing Two IRT Models for Conjunctive Skills
A step in ITS often involve multiple skills. Thus a step requiring a conjunction of skills is harder than steps that require requiring each individual skill only. We developed two Item-Response Models – Additive Factor Model (AFM) and Conjunctive Factor Model (CFM) – to model the conjunctive skills in the student data sets. Both models are compared on simulated data sets and a real assessment d...
متن کاملIRT-FIT: SAS® Macros for Fitting Item Response Theory (IRT) Models
Psychometrics has recently seen the development of complex measurement models to better represent test and item data. Item Response Theory (IRT), in particular, comprises a set of non-linear latent variable models that appear to have several conceptual and empirical properties that make them more valuable in practice than classical test theory methods. However, IRT-based models typically requir...
