Purpose: The present study examined the psychometric properties of the EGame-flow scale in a Mexican sample, presenting evidence of construct validity (exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis), reliability (Cronbach's alpha and McDonald's omega) and discriminant validity (mean variance extracted). Design/methodology/approach:…

Cassiani-Miranda, Carlos Arturo; Campo-Arias, Adalberto; Álvarez-Solorza, Isabel – Journal of Beliefs & Values, 2022
The brief Francis scale of attitude towards Christianity (Francis-4) psychometric performance in Mexico is unknown. The objective was to evaluate the dimensionality, homogeneity, gender differential item functioning (DIF), and nomological validity of Francis-4. 1,108 university students between 18 and 60 years of age were evaluated; 80.4% were…

Carolina Alcantar-Nieblas; Leonardo David Glasserman-Morales; José Carlos Vázquez-Parra – On the Horizon, 2024
Purpose: The purposes of this study were to calculate the confirmatory factor analysis in the measurement model using robust measures (McDonald's omega and Cronbach's alpha) to ensure the reliability of the proposed scale and to explore the measurement invariance of the scale per the participants' gender. Design/methodology/approach: The…

María Soledad Ramírez-Montoya; Claudia Marina Vicario-Solorzano; Laura Icela González-Pérez – Cogent Education, 2024
Sustainability actions in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) profoundly affect students, employees and their communities. These aim at social and economic benefits for local communities. Sustainability must be measured, and its goals must be achieved as part of the university's mission to impact the community significantly. This work provides…

Reasoning for complexity is a fundamental competency in these complex times for solutions to social problems and decision-making. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the validity and reliability of the eComplexity instrument by presenting its psychometric properties. The instrument consists of a Likert-type scale questionnaire designed to…

Rodríguez-Vásquez, Flor Monserrat; Ariza-Hernandez, Francisco J. – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2021
The evaluation of learning in mathematics is a worldwide problem, therefore, new methods are required to assess the understanding of mathematical concepts. In this paper, we propose to use the Item Response Theory to analyze the understanding level of undergraduate students about the real function mathematical concept. The Bayesian approach was…

Ricardo Alfonso Zepeda Orozco; Sun-Young Shin – MEXTESOL Journal, 2019
In response to the high demand for English proficiency exams for various purposes including placement, admission, certification, and program evaluation in Mexico, a university in Western Mexico created the English Proficiency Test (EPT) for the B1 level in the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR). The EPT has been developed and piloted…

Brown, Jennifer L.; Sifuentes, Lucía Macías – Journal of Curriculum and Teaching, 2016
With growing numbers of Hispanic students enrolling in post-secondary school, there is a need to increase retention and graduation rates. The purpose of this study was to validate the Spanish adaptation of the Abbreviated Math Anxiety Scale (AMAS). The AMAS was translated and administered to 804 freshman students at a post-secondary institution in…

Barniol, Pablo; Zavala, Genaro – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2016
In this article we present several modifications of the mechanical waves conceptual survey, the most important test to date that has been designed to evaluate university students' understanding of four main topics in mechanical waves: propagation, superposition, reflection, and standing waves. The most significant changes are (i) modification of…

Zavala, Genaro; Tejeda, Santa; Barniol, Pablo; Beichner, Robert J. – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2017
In this article, we present several modifications to the Test of Understanding Graphs in Kinematics. The most significant changes are (i) the addition and removal of items to achieve parallelism in the objectives (dimensions) of the test, thus allowing comparisons of students' performance that were not possible with the original version, and (ii)…

There is hardly any cross-cultural research on the measurement invariance of the Brief Multidimensional Students' Life Satisfaction Scales (BMSLSS). The current article evaluates the measurement invariance of the BMSLSS across cultural contexts. This cross-sectional study sampled 7,739 adolescents and emerging adults in 23 countries. A multi-group…

Davies, Randall; Zaugg, Holt; Tateishi, Isaku – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2015
Advances in technology have increased the likelihood that engineers will have to work in a global, culturally diverse setting. Many schools of engineering are currently revising their curricula to help students to develop cultural competence. However, our ability to measure cultural dispositions can be a challenge. The purpose of this project was…

Barniol, Pablo; Zavala, Genaro – Physical Review Special Topics - Physics Education Research, 2014
In this article we discuss the findings of our research on students' understanding of vector concepts in problems without physical context. First, we develop a complete taxonomy of the most frequent errors made by university students when learning vector concepts. This study is based on the results of several test administrations of open-ended…
