Appendix G: Partial Orderings for Various
Dimensions in Each Gradeby Kalée Tock and Patrick
Suppes June 23, 2002
There are five ability parameters: computer-time rate, calendar-time
rate, average latency for correct answers, error rate, and age.
Inclusion of each of these parameters as a dimension to be used in the
partial ordering of students within a grade causes the partially
ordered list to change. The following figures show all 31
combinations of the five variables for each grade. They are organized
by grade and then by combination. Note that for simplicity, only
connections between adjacent layers are shown.
Each figures is labeled with the grade, the number of dimensions, and
then the particular combination of dimensions included. In these
labels, "Comp" refers to computer-time rate, "Cal" refers to
calendar-time rate, "Lat" refers to average latency for correct
answers, and "Err" refers to error rate.
