COVID-19 has disrupted higher education globally, and there is scarce information about the "learning loss" in university students throughout this crisis. The goal of the study was to compare scores in a large-scale knowledge diagnostic exam applied to students admitted to the university, before and during the pandemic. Research design…

Wright, Daniel B. – Educational Measurement: Issues and Practice, 2019
There is much discussion about and many policies to address achievement gaps in education among groups of students. The focus here is on a different gap and it is argued that it also should be of concern. Speed gaps are differences in how quickly different groups of students answer the questions on academic assessments. To investigate some speed…

Mao, Jih-Yu; Xiao, Jincen; Liu, Xin; Qing, Tao; Xu, Hongling – Creativity Research Journal, 2023
In this research, we explore how coworker ideation levels or, more specifically, the average ideation levels of coworkers within a workgroup affect a focal employee's ideation. We examine an underlying mechanism and a boundary condition of this influence process. Drawing on social cognitive theory, we argue that high coworker ideation levels are…

Froehlich, Laura; Sassenberg, Kai; Jonkmann, Kathrin; Scheiter, Katharina; Stürmer, Stefan – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2023
Background: The use of e-exams in higher education is increasing. However, the role of student diversity in the acceptance of e-exams is an under-researched topic. In the current study, we considered student diversity in terms of three sociodemographic characteristics (age, gender, and second language) and three dispositional student…

Alexander James Kwako – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Automated assessment using Natural Language Processing (NLP) has the potential to make English speaking assessments more reliable, authentic, and accessible. Yet without careful examination, NLP may exacerbate social prejudices based on gender or native language (L1). Current NLP-based assessments are prone to such biases, yet research and…

Lavy, Victor – National Bureau of Economic Research, 2023
School authorities, universities, and employers often schedule multiple tests on the same day or week, causing overlapping exam preparation and a dense testing schedule. This multitask learning can be intense, under pressure, and challenge the student's mental and physical perseverance. As a result, it can compromise performance relative to a more…

Al-Hilawani, Yasser A. – Educational Studies, 2018
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between metacognition as measured in real-life situations and IQ scores as reflected by performance on the Raven Standard Progressive Matrices Scale. It is also intended in this study to report on whether or not there were significant differences in performance on the metacognitive…

The increasing use of computer-based mode in language testing raises concern over its similarities with and differences from paper-based format. The present study aimed to delineate discrepancies between TOEFL PBT and CBT. For that objective, a quantitative method was employed to probe into scores equivalence, the performance of male-female…

Jeffry White – Journal of Educational Research and Practice, 2024
Violations of normality and homogeneity are common in educational data. When this occurs, the use of parametric statistics may be inappropriate. A generalized form of nonparametric analyses based on the Puri and Sen L statistic provides an alternative approach. Using a chi-square distribution, this technique is easy to apply and has significant…

Dibek, Esin; Özdemir, Atiye Adak; Güven, Yildiz – Journal of Education and Training Studies, 2019
The main purpose of this study was to assess children's skill in using a simple map. The study was conducted among 262 children (141 girls and 121 boys), aged between 61-78 months (average 71 months), attending to 4 public pre-schools in Istanbul, Turkey. The simple map skills (requiring mental rotation and understanding spatial relation) of the…

Costa, Denise Reis; Chen, Chia-Wen – Large-scale Assessments in Education, 2023
Given the ongoing development of computer-based tasks, there has been increasing interest in modelling students' behaviour indicators from log file data with contextual variables collected via questionnaires. In this work, we apply a latent regression model to analyse the relationship between latent constructs (i.e., performance, speed, and…

Hilgenkamp, Thessa Irena Maria; Baynard, Tracy – Journal of Applied Research in Intellectual Disabilities, 2018
Background: Individuals with intellectual disability (ID) have very low physical activity and low peak oxygen uptake (VO[subscript 2peak]), potentially explained by physiologically lower peak heart rates (HR[subscript peak]). Method: The present authors performed a retrospective analysis of a large data set of individuals with intellectual…

Wang, Lu; Steedle, Jeffrey – ACT, Inc., 2020
In recent ACT mode comparability studies, students testing on laptop or desktop computers earned slightly higher scores on average than students who tested on paper, especially on the ACT® reading and English tests (Li et al., 2017). Equating procedures adjust for such "mode effects" to make ACT scores comparable regardless of testing…
