Biography
Ben Domingue is an associate professor at the Graduate School of Education at Stanford University with research interests in psychometrics and quantitative methods. He is interested in how statistical tools can be used to better understand psychological and educational outcomes—e.g., what is this child’s reading ability?—that are challenging to measure and yet ubiquitous in education as well as the social and biomedical sciences more generally. To that end, he is leading development of a data resource (the Item Response Warehouse) meant to increase the availability and accessibility of data for psychometrics research.
