Karadavut, Tugba; Cohen, Allan S.; Kim, Seock-Ho – Measurement: Interdisciplinary Research and Perspectives, 2020
Mixture Rasch (MixRasch) models conventionally assume normal distributions for latent ability. Previous research has shown that the assumption of normality is often unmet in educational and psychological measurement. When normality is assumed, asymmetry in the actual latent ability distribution has been shown to result in extraction of spurious…

The purpose of this research is to gather empirical evidence for attribution theory (Weiner in J Educ Psychol 71(1):3-25. https://doi.org/10.1037/0022-0663.71.1.3, 1979) to explain students' feelings of helplessness when learning mathematics. The relationships between mathematics literacy in PISA 2012 and learned helplessness were also observed.…

Cheema, Jehanzeb R.; Skultety, Lisa S. – Educational Psychology, 2017
Subject-specific self-efficacy is a measure of confidence in one's own ability to complete tasks related to that subject. This confidence does not necessarily reflect actual ability in the subject and can be an over- or underestimate of true ability. We use nationally representative samples of 15-year-old students from the US to measure the degree…

Zhao, Yong – Phi Delta Kappan, 2012
Why didn't China celebrate its stunning PISA performance? Why does Singapore blame its education for its inability to cultivate creative and entrepreneurial talents? Why don't the world's top scorers in international tests have the same level of entrepreneurial activities and capabilities? This essay uncovers the inconsistency between academic…
