Popis | The additive factor model is a widely used tool for analyzing educational data, yet it is often used as an off-the-shelf solution without considering implementation details. A common practice is to compare multiple additive factor models, choose the one with the best predictive accuracy, and interpret the parameters of the model as evidence of student learning. In this work, we use simulated data to show that in certain situations, this approach can lead to misleading results. Specifically, we show how student skill distribution affects estimates of other model parameters. |
