Jansen, Renée S.; van Leeuwen, Anouschka; Janssen, Jeroen; Kester, Liesbeth; Kalz, Marco – Journal of Computing in Higher Education, 2017
The number of students engaged in Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) is increasing rapidly. Due to the autonomy of students in this type of education, students in MOOCs are required to regulate their learning to a greater extent than students in traditional, face-to-face education. However, there is no questionnaire available suited for this…

Egberink, Iris J. L.; Meijer, Rob R.; Tendeiro, Jorge N. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2015
A popular method to assess measurement invariance of a particular item is based on likelihood ratio tests with all other items as anchor items. The results of this method are often only reported in terms of statistical significance, and researchers proposed different methods to empirically select anchor items. It is unclear, however, how many…

Hummel, Hans G. K.; Joosten-ten Brinke, Desirée; Nadolski, Rob J.; Baartman, Liesbeth K. J. – Technology, Pedagogy and Education, 2017
Serious games foster the acquisition of complex problem-solving skills. Assessment of such skills should be in line with instruction, and within a serious game environment its content validity should equal face-to-face assessment. Research on assessment in serious gaming has remained rather scarce. This article shows how assessment can be…

Roelofs, Ardi – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2014
Investigators have found no agreement on the functional locus of Stroop interference in vocal naming. Whereas it has long been assumed that the interference arises during spoken word planning, more recently some investigators have revived an account from the 1960s and 1970s holding that the interference occurs in an articulatory buffer after word…
