Abstract

In language assessment and in educational measurement more broadly, there is a tendency to interpret scores from single-administration tests as accurate indicators of a latent trait (e.g., reading ability). Even in contexts where learners receive multiple formative assessments throughout the year, estimates of student ability are determined based on the most recent assessment. This paper demonstrates a technique that incorporates prior test scores with current scores for learners who re-test periodically, in order to arrive at an estimate closer to the learners’ true score. Over 21,000 learners from two separate studies (EFL and native speaker) were tested for reading proficiency between three and five times each, over a one- to two-year period, on a multiple-choice reading test which reported reading ability in Lexile® measures. Applying Bayes theorem, prior scores and the most recent test score were combined with uncertainty parameters (i.e., measurement error) to produce new estimates of student ability. This is advantageous as prior administration data is re-used rather than discarded. The approach is recommended in the context of periodic low-stakes tests designed to measure proficiency gains over time, as well as for high-stakes tests as an alternative to allowing candidates to cherry-pick their highest score for university applications.

Abstract

Crucial transitions in cancer-including tumor initiation, local expansion, metastasis, and therapeutic resistance-involve complex interactions between cells within the dynamic tumor ecosystem. Transformative single-cell genomics technologies and spatial multiplex in situ methods now provide an opportunity to interrogate this complexity at unprecedented resolution. The Human Tumor Atlas Network (HTAN), part of the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Cancer Moonshot Initiative, will establish a clinical, experimental, computational, and organizational framework to generate informative and accessible three-dimensional atlases of cancer transitions for a diverse set of tumor types. This effort complements both ongoing efforts to map healthy organs and previous large-scale cancer genomics approaches focused on bulk sequencing at a single point in time. Generating single-cell, multiparametric, longitudinal atlases and integrating them with clinical outcomes should help identify novel predictive biomarkers and features as well as therapeutically relevant cell types, cell states, and cellular interactions across transitions. The resulting tumor atlases should have a profound impact on our understanding of cancer biology and have the potential to improve cancer detection, prevention, and therapeutic discovery for better precision-medicine treatments of cancer patients and those at risk for cancer.
