Academic entitlement (AE) characterizes students who believe they deserve positive academic outcomes independent of performance. Using the Academic Entitlement Questionnaire, we evaluated the longitudinal stability of the measurement and magnitude of AE. Results indicated partial measurement invariance, slight average increase in AE, and…

Kooken, Janice; Welsh, Megan E.; McCoach, D. Betsy; Johnston-Wilder, Sue; Lee, Clare – Measurement and Evaluation in Counseling and Development, 2016
The Mathematical Resilience Scale measures students' attitudes toward studying mathematics, using three correlated factors: Value, Struggle, and Growth. The Mathematical Resilience Scale was developed and validated using exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses across three samples. Results provide a new approach to gauge the likelihood of…

Cokley, Kevin – Measurement and Evaluation in Counseling and Development, 2015
The factor structure of the Academic Motivation Scale (AMS) was examined with a sample of 578 Black college students. A confirmatory factor analysis of the AMS was conducted. Results indicated that the hypothesized seven-factor model did not fit the data. Implications for future research with the AMS are discussed.

Barry, Carol L.; Finney, Sara J. – Measurement and Evaluation in Counseling and Development, 2009
Two studies were conducted to examine validity evidence for the College Self-Efficacy Inventory, by investigating dimensionality and theoretically based relationships with external criteria. Modifications to the scale yielded an adequately fitting three-factor model, and most hypothesized relationships were empirically supported. However,…

Peer reviewedGlutting, Joseph J.; Monaghan, Maureen C.; Adams, Wayne; Sheslow, David – Measurement and Evaluation in Counseling and Development, 2002
This study obtained construct (factorial) validity, internal consistency reliability, and 1-year criterion coefficients for scores from the College Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) Response Evaluation (CARE), an evaluation tool examining ADHD behaviors as reported by college students and their parents. Among the CARE variables,…

Peer reviewedRice, Kenneth G.; Slaney, Robert B. – Measurement and Evaluation in Counseling and Development, 2002
These two studies extended research on the recently developed Almost Perfect Scale-Revised (APS-R; R.B. Slaney, M. Mobley, J. Trippi, J.S. Ashby, & D. Johnson, 1996). Cluster analyses were used to identify adaptive and maladaptive perfectionists and nonperfectionists. Differences between the clusters emerged on measures of self-esteem,…
