The diagnosticity of individual data for model selection: Comparing signal-detection models of recognition memory

Abstract: We tested whether the unequal-variance signaldetection (UVSD) and dual-process signal-detection (DPSD) models of recognition memory mimic the behavior of each other when applied to individual data. Replicating previous results, there was no mimicry for an analysis that fit each individual, summed the goodness-of-fit values over individuals, and compared the two sums (i.e., a single model selection). However, when the models were compared separately for each individual (i.e., multiple model selections), mimicry… Show more

“…4 is the considerable flexibility of the UVSD, which is the highest among the candidate models, a result that is likely to lead to significant changes in the conclusions of the previous meta-analyses that did not take flexibility due to functional form into account. These FIA f and NML f results per se already run counter to the notion that the UVSD and DPSD are approximately equal in flexibility and corroborate previous analyses that indicated a greater propensity for the UVSD model to overfit data Jang et al, 2011), although it should be emphasized that differences in flexibility do not necessarily generalize across tasks or variations of a particular task (see Kellen & Klauer, 2011;Klauer & Kellen, 2011b). For example, the 2HTM is more flexible than the DPSD and MSD0 in the context of the 4AFC-2R task, but not for the case of binaryresponse ROCs.…”

“…Another approach to the problem of model flexibility is based on simulations Cohen, Sanborn, & Shiffrin, 2008;Jang, Wixted, & Huber, 2011;Wixted, 2007), the most prominent simulation method being the parametric bootstrap cross-fitting method (PBCM) introduced by Wagenmakers, Ratcliff, Gomez, and Iverson (2004). PBCM is also of limited value for the current selection problem, since it assesses model mimicry (see Jang et al, 2011) for a given pair of models conditional on a particular data set.…”

“…For only one category (election strategies) the GCM is the preferable model. In this category, both models perform very similarly in terms of goodness-of-fit, which suggests that the GCM was slightly favored in the generalizability analyses for being less flexible (see, e.g., Jang, Wixted, & Huber, 2011). For seven out of the ten categories, evidence is overwhelmingly in favor of the IDM, consistently across dimensionalities.…”
