Direct linkJohnson, Austin H.; Chafouleas, Sandra M.; Briesch, Amy M. – School Psychology Quarterly, 2017
In this study, generalizability theory was used to examine the extent to which (a) time-sampling methodology, (b) number of simultaneous behavior targets, and (c) individual raters influenced variance in ratings of academic engagement for an elementary-aged student. Ten graduate-student raters, with an average of 7.20 hr of previous training in…

Briesch, Amy M.; Volpe, Robert J.; Ferguson, Tyler David – School Psychology Quarterly, 2014
Although generalizability theory has been used increasingly in recent years to investigate the dependability of behavioral estimates, many of these studies have relied on use of general education populations as opposed to those students who are most likely to be referred for assessment due to problematic classroom behavior (e.g., inattention,…

Keller-Margulis, Milena A.; Mercer, Sterett H.; Thomas, Erin L. – School Psychology Quarterly, 2016
The purpose of this study was to examine the reliability of written expression curriculum-based measurement (WE-CBM) in the context of universal screening from a generalizability theory framework. Students in second through fifth grade (n = 145) participated in the study. The sample included 54% female students, 49% White students, 23% African…

Volpe, Robert J.; Briesch, Amy M. – School Psychology Quarterly, 2015
Direct Behavior Rating-Multi-Item Scales (DBR-MIS) have been developed as formative measures of behavioral assessment for use in school-based problem-solving models. Initial research has examined the dependability of composite scores generated by summing all items comprising the scales. However, it has been argued that DBR-MIS may offer assessment…

David Ferguson, Tyler; Briesch, Amy M.; Volpe, Robert J.; Daniels, Brian – School Psychology Quarterly, 2012
Although direct observation is one of the most frequently used assessment methods by school psychologists, studies have shown that the number of observations needed to obtain a dependable estimate of student behavior may be impractical. Because direct observation may be used to inform important decisions about students, it is crucial that data be…

Peer reviewedHintze, John M.; Owen, Steven V.; Shapiro, Edward S.; Daly III, Edward J. – School Psychology Quarterly, 2000
Demonstrates the use of Generalizability (G) theory as an alternative method of validating direct behavioral measures. Reliability and validity from a classic test score theory are explored and rephrased in terms of G theory. Two studies that used oral reading fluency measures within a curriculum-based measurement approach are examined with G…
