Basak Erdem Kara – International Electronic Journal of Elementary Education, 2025
Achievement tests are commonly used in education to evaluate students' academic performance and proficiency in specific subject areas. However, there is a major problem that threatens the validity of achievement test scores which is test-taking disengagement. Respondents provide answers that are inconsistent with their true ability level and can…

Beata Zarzycka; Kamil Tomaka; Dariusz Krok; Michal Grupa; Zofia Zajac; Ciara Hernandez; Raymond F. Paloutzian – Journal of Beliefs & Values, 2024
Deconversion is a biographical change in which one goes from claiming adherence to a religion to departing from it. A meaning system model can help us understand the processes through which deconversion occurs. Drawing on that framework, we explored how perceiving hypocrisy in one's religious setting influences adolescent deconversion. Irrational…

Coping Power (CP) is a preventive intervention that focuses on reducing child externalizing problems. Although it is typically delivered in a group format (GCP), individually-delivered CP (ICP) has produced greater mean reductions in externalizing problems. However, standard analysis of randomized trials loses individual-level information…

Pools, Elodie – Applied Measurement in Education, 2022
Many low-stakes assessments, such as international large-scale surveys, are administered during time-limited testing sessions and some test-takers are not able to endorse the last items of the test, resulting in not-reached (NR) items. However, because the test has no consequence for the respondents, these NR items can also stem from quitting the…

Lydia Ross; Kathryn P. Chapman; Sherman Dorn; Carlos R. Casanova – AERA Open, 2023
Although much of the national opt-out movement is parent driven, the Colorado opt-out movement involved considerable efforts from high school students. This study explores the geography of the Colorado opt-out movement among secondary students, drawing upon social movements theory. We utilize the Colorado Measures of Academic Success (CMAS) as a…

Han, Areum; Krieger, Florian; Borgonovi, Francesca; Greiff, Samuel – Large-scale Assessments in Education, 2023
Process data are becoming more and more popular in education research. In the field of computer-based assessments of collaborative problem solving (ColPS), process data have been used to identify students' test-taking strategies while working on the assessment, and such data can be used to complement data collected on accuracy and overall…

Fay, Heather; LoParo, Devon; Shentu, Yujia; Vasquez, Desirae; Welsh, Justine W. – Journal of School Health, 2020
Background: Whether parental permission of alcohol and other drug use in a home environment is protective against substance-related negative outcomes remains controversial. We investigated substance use at home, with or without parental knowledge, and its association with substance-related consequences. Methods: The sample consisted of 21,207 U.S.…

Kuang, Huan; Sahin, Fusun – Large-scale Assessments in Education, 2023
Background: Examinees may not make enough effort when responding to test items if the assessment has no consequence for them. These disengaged responses can be problematic in low-stakes, large-scale assessments because they can bias item parameter estimates. However, the amount of bias, and whether this bias is similar across administrations, is…

Frizzarin, Anna; Demo, Heidrun; de Boer, Anke A. – European Journal of Special Needs Education, 2023
Former literature found that various 'different' students experience exclusion and rejection by their peers in schools. This may be linked with the attitudes that their school and classmates hold towards them. Identifying someone as 'Other' may indeed result in prejudicial attitudes which, in turn, can lead to his/her marginalisation and…

Zuo, Mingzhang; Ma, Yunpeng; Hu, Yue; Luo, Heng – Frontiers of Education in China, 2021
Online learning has become the new educational pattern during the COVID-19 pandemic and is likely to supplement conventional schooling in the post-pandemic world. Lacking prior online learning experiences, the population of K-12 students deserves our special attention. Using purposeful sampling, this study investigated K-12 online learning…

Eichmann, Beate; Greiff, Samuel; Naumann, Johannes; Brandhuber, Liene; Goldhammer, Frank – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2020
In this explorative study, we investigate how sequences of behaviour are related to success or failure in complex problem-solving (CPS). To this end, we analysed log data from two different tasks of the problem-solving assessment of the Programme for International Student Assessment 2012 study (n = 30,098 students). We first coded every…
