This commentary reflects on the articles included in the Psychometrika Special Issue on Network Psychometrics in Action. The contributions to the special issue are related to several possible future paths for research in this area. These include the development of models to analyze and represent interventions, improvement in exploratory and inferential techniques in network psychometrics, the articulation of psychometric theories in addition to psychometric models, and extensions of network modeling to novel data sources. Finally, network psychometrics is part of a larger movement in psychology that revolves around the analysis of human beings as complex systems, and it is timely that psychometricians start extending their rich modeling tradition to improve and extend the analysis of systems in psychology.
这篇评论反思了《心理计量学》特刊中关于网络心理计量学实践的文章。该特刊的贡献与该领域研究的几个可能的未来方向有关。这些方向包括开发用于分析和表示干预措施的模型，改进网络心理计量学中的探索性和推断性技术，除了心理计量模型之外还阐明心理计量理论，以及将网络建模扩展到新的数据来源。最后，网络心理计量学是心理学中更大的分析人类作为复杂系统运动的一部分，心理学家现在及时开始扩展他们丰富的建模传统，以改进和扩展心理学中系统的分析。
