Dr. Ben Domingue

Biography

Ben Domingue is an Associate Professor at the Graduate School of Education at Stanford University. His research interests lie primarily in psychometrics and quantitative methods, particularly the statistical tools used to understand psychological and educational outcomes, such as children’s reading abilities. Domingue is engaged in various inquiries, including the analysis of response times collected in broader psychometric studies. His work emphasizes understanding the speed-accuracy tradeoff, a phenomenon where errors tend to occur more frequently under time constraints. He also investigates the index of prediction quality for models of binary outcomes, introducing a consistent interpretation across various outcomes. In addition, Domingue explores how psychometric approaches can enhance the understanding of learning in large educational experiments, focusing on item-level variations rather than composite outcomes. His numerous publications reflect these interests and contribute significantly to the fields of education policy and psychometrics.
