Aligning LLM-Simulated and Human Examinees for Psychometric Calibration: A Cognitive Diagnostic Profiling Approach
Psychometric calibration for educational tests typically requires costly human response data. Large language models (LLMs) simulated examinees offer a promising route to early calibration, but their responses are too accurate and too uniform. We propose Cognitive Diagnostic Profiling (CDP), a zero-shot framework that p...
