Matthew Madison

I am a native of Columbia, South Carolina. I am currently in my first year in the REMS doctoral program. I attended the University of South Carolina, where I graduated in 2009 with a B.S. in mathematics. I then attended Central Michigan University where I attained an M.A. in mathematics with a concentration in mathematics education. My primary research interests lie in advancing methodology for measuring cognitive and psychological traits. More specifically, I am interested in contemporary item response models called diagnostic classification models and their application in education, especially in mathematics education. My secondary research interests are measurement of higher order thinking skills and equity in mathematics education.
