Corcoran, Stephanie – Contemporary School Psychology, 2022
With the iPad-mediated cognitive assessment gaining popularity with school districts and the need for alternative modes for training and instruction during this COVID-19 pandemic, school psychology training programs will need to adapt to effectively train their students to be competent in administering, scoring, an interpreting cognitive…

Flanagan, Dawn P.; Mascolo, Jennifer T.; Alfonso, Vincent C. – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2017
Through the use of excerpts from one of our own case studies, this commentary applied concepts inherent in, but not limited to, the neuropsychological literature to the interpretation of performance on the Kaufman Tests of Educational Achievement-Third Edition (KTEA-3), particularly at the level of error analysis. The approach to KTEA-3 test…

Rafferty, Anna N.; Jansen, Rachel A.; Griffiths, Thomas L. – Cognitive Science, 2020
Online educational technologies offer opportunities for providing individualized feedback and detailed profiles of students' skills. Yet many technologies for mathematics education assess students based only on the correctness of either their final answers or responses to individual steps. In contrast, examining the choices students make for how…

Sinharay, Sandip – Grantee Submission, 2018
Tatsuoka (1984) suggested several extended caution indices and their standardized versions that have been used as person-fit statistics by researchers such as Drasgow, Levine, and McLaughlin (1987), Glas and Meijer (2003), and Molenaar and Hoijtink (1990). However, these indices are only defined for tests with dichotomous items. This paper extends…

Schmidgall, Jonathan – Applied Measurement in Education, 2017
This study utilizes an argument-based approach to validation to examine the implications of reliability in order to further differentiate the concepts of score and decision consistency. In a methodological example, the framework of generalizability theory was used to estimate appropriate indices of score consistency and evaluations of the…

Tatsuoka, Kikumi K. – Psychometrika, 1984
In this study, the statistical properties of extended caution indices are investigated, and their relationships to Guttman scales and to item and person response curves are discussed. Further, these indices are standardized, and an example of their potential usefulness for diagnosing students' misconceptions is shown. (Author/BW)

Slate, John R.; And Others – Journal of School Psychology, 1992
Analyzed 56 Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised protocols completed by 1 certified and 8 licensed practitioners to examine administration and scoring mistakes. Observed numerous mistakes (failure to record examinee responses, assigning too few or too many points to answers, inappropriate questioning, and failure to obtain correct…

Shoemaker, David M. – 1970
Selected parameters for a negatively-skewed and a normally distributed normative distribution were estimated in a post-mortem item-examinee sampling investigation. Manipulated systematically were number of subtests, number of items per subtest, and number of examinees responding to each subtest. Each item-examinee sampling procedure was replicated…

Teuber, Jeffrey F.; Furlong, Michael J. – Psychology in the Schools, 1985
Examined performance and error patterns of 50 bilingual Mexican-American third through fifth graders on the Expressive One-Word Picture Vocabulary Test (EOWPVT) and the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test-Revised (PPVT-R). The EOWPVT had adequate concurrent validity with PPVT-R. On both tests, scores were almost two standard deviations below normative…

Tatsuoka, Kikumi, K.; Tatsuoka, Maurice M. – Journal of Educational Statistics, 1982
Two indices for measuring the degree of conformity or consistency of an individual examinee's response pattern on a set of items are developed. The use of the indices for spotting aberrant response patterns of examinees is detailed. (Author/JKS)

D'Costa, Ayres – 1993
The Sato Caution Index takes into account the number and difficulty of items gotten wrong by a student within his or her ability, as well as the number and difficulty of items gotten right beyond his or her ability. Sato subtracts the two components to define a single Caution Index. In this study, the components are kept separate, defining a…

Kane, Michael – Applied Measurement in Education, 1996
This overview of the role of error and tolerance for error in measurement asserts that the generic precision associated with a measurement procedure is defined as the root mean square error, or standard error, in some relevant population. This view of precision is explored in several applications of measurement. (SLD)
