Benjamin W. Domingue

Benjamin W. Domingue is an Associate Professor at the Graduate School of Education, Stanford University, with affiliations including the Stanford Center on Early Childhood and Policy Analysis for California Education (PACE). His research bridges psychometrics and sociogenomics, focusing on statistical tools for measuring educational outcomes and integrating genetic data into social science research.

Education:

• PhD in Education, University of Colorado Boulder (Advisor: Derek Briggs, 2012)
• MA in Mathematics, University of Texas at Austin (Advisor: Uri Treisman, 2006)
• BS in Mathematics, University of Texas at Austin (2001)

His work examines test score properties, response time analysis, and genetic influences on educational attainment. Recent projects include developing the Item Response Warehouse (IRW) resource and analyzing oral reading fluency during the pandemic. Key methodological contributions involve the InterModel Vigorish (IMV) for predictive accuracy and speed-accuracy tradeoffs in real-world settings.
