We study the relationship between school organizational contexts, teacher turnover, and student achievement in New York City (NYC) middle schools. Using factor analysis, we construct measures of four distinct dimensions of school climate captured on the annual NYC School Survey. We identify credible estimates by isolating variation in…

Moller, Jens; Retelsdorf, Jan; Koller, Olaf; Marsh, Herb W. – American Educational Research Journal, 2011
The reciprocal internal/external frame of reference model (RI/EM) combines the internal/external frame of reference model and the reciprocal effects model. The RI/EM predicts positive effects of mathematics and verbal achievement and academic self-concepts (ASC) on subsequent mathematics and verbal achievements and ASCs within domains and negative…

Bowman, Nicholas A. – American Educational Research Journal, 2010
Many higher education studies use self-reported gains as indicators of college student learning and development. However, the evidence regarding the validity of these indicators is quite mixed. It is proposed that the temporal nature of the assessment--whether students are asked to report their current attributes or how their attributes have…

Virtually all states require teachers to undergo licensure testing before participation in the public school labor market. This article analyzes the information these tests provide about teacher effectiveness. The authors find that licensure tests have different predicative validity for student achievement by teacher race. They also find that…

Peer reviewedDoyle, Kenneth, O., Jr.; Whitely, Susan E. – American Educational Research Journal, 1974
A rating instrument was administered to students in a multi-section beginning language course. "Across-" and "between-sections" data were studied. Results indicated that student ratings overlap with classroom achievement, yet possess a unique component. (Author/RC)

Experiments were conducted to determine undergraduates' attributions for examination performance. A latent partition analysis of subjects' categories was performed by another group of educational psychology students. Combined attribution clusters reflected locus of control and stability dimensions. Students differentiated attribution clusters only…

Peer reviewedMeisels, Samuel J.; Bickel, Donna DiPrima; Nicholson, Julie; Xue, Yange; Atkins-Burnett, Sally – American Educational Research Journal, 2001
Studied the validity of teacher judgments based on the Work Sampling System (WSS), a curriculum-embedded performance assessment for preschool to grade 5. Results for 345 K-3 students in 17 classrooms demonstrate that the WSS correlates well with a standardized, individually administered psychoeducational battery and is a reliable predictor of…

Peer reviewedSolomon, Daniel; Kendall, Arthur J. – American Educational Research Journal, 1977
Teachers rated the behavior of 205 3rd- and 4th-grade children on a 30-item scale. Correlations of factor scores with measures of academic achievement, creativity, inquiry skill, and various orientations, motives, attitudes, and values were investigated. Correlations suggest that teachers can validly discriminate between perseverant and…

This study is fourth in a series demonstrating that achievement tests are multidimensional and that using subscores from national surveys can enhance test validity and usefulness. It extends the analyses of science achievement data from the National Education Longitudinal Study of 1988 (NELS: 88) through grade 12. (SLD)

Self-ratings and student ratings of 17 instructors were compared with student achievement on an externally constructed final examination. Instructor self-ratings and student ratings demonstrated good convergent validity during the second semester. Student ratings of the instructor's control of classroom correlated with achievement during the…
