10 JUL 2026 - Back up to full speed! Let's be honest: for the last few months, TorrentFunk was painfully slow. Pages crawled, searches dragged, and just loading the site tested everyone's patience. We hunted the problem down to our network and rebuilt it from the ground up — smarter caching, a much bigger and faster connection, and a lot of fine-tuning under the hood. The difference is night and day: the site now loads in a fraction of a second. No more waiting around. Thanks for sticking with us through the slow spell. Now go discover your funk!
Quantitative Data Analysis for Language Assessment Volume II: Advanced Methods emonstrates advanced quantitative techniques for language assessment. The volume takes an interdisciplinary approach and taps into expertise from language assessment, data mining, and psychometrics. The techniques covered include Structural Equation Modeling, Data Mining, Multidimensional Psychometrics and Multilevel Data Analysis.Volume II is distinct among available books in language assessment, as it engages the readers in both theory and application of the methods and introduces relevant techniques for theory construction and validation. This book is highly recommended to graduate students and researchers who are searching for innovative and rigorous approaches and methods to achieve excellence in their dissertations and research. It is also a valuable source for academics who teach quantitative approaches in language assessment and data analysis courses. Advanced item response theory (IRT) models in language assessment Applying the mixed Rasch model in assessing reading comprehension Multidimensional Rasch models in first language listening tests The log-linear cognitive diagnosis modeling (LCDM) in second language listening assessment Application of a hierarchical diagnostic classification model in assessing reading comprehension Advanced statistical methods in language assessment Structural equation modeling to predict performance in English proficiency tests Student growth percentiles in the formative assessment of English language proficiency Multilevel modeling to examine sources of variability in second language test scores Longitudinal multilevel modeling to examine changes in second language test scores Nature-inspired data-mining methods in language assessment Classification and regression trees in predicting listening item difficulty Evolutionary algorithm-based symbolic regression to determine the relationship of reading and lexicogrammatical knowledge
