Dr. Yi-Hsin Chen is a Professor in the Department of Educational Measurement and Research at the College of Education, University of South Florida (USF), located on the Tampa campus in office EDU 362.
Her teaching responsibilities include:
- EDF 6432: Foundations of Measurement (Online)
- EDF 6407: Statistical Analysis for Educational Research I (Online)
- EDF 7439: Item Response Theory
- EDF 7469: Computer-Based Testing
- EDF 7436: Rasch Models
Her primary research focuses on cognitive psychometric models including GDINA, LCDM, and DINA, which integrate cognitive attributes into measurement frameworks. She specializes in diagnostic classification modeling, cross-cultural validation of educational constructs, and development of computer-based assessments. Her work bridges theoretical psychometrics with practical applications in mathematics and literacy assessment.
Analysis of her recent publications reveals consistent innovation in cognitive diagnostic modeling, particularly in mathematics education (TIMSS, van Hiele geometry), orthographic processing, and cross-cultural validation. Her research increasingly incorporates computational methods like Bayesian estimation and R programming while addressing emerging challenges such as AI-generated test items. The interdisciplinary nature of her work spans educational psychology, statistics, and international assessment.
