I present a new model of the self-regulation of virtue that integrates perspectives on emotion, cognition, and motivation. Across three vignette-based studies in US/UK (N = 1,540), I developed through exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis a multi-item measure of broadening and defensive responses, the Self-Regulation of Virtue Inventory…

The Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) has become the world's largest comparative assessment of academic achievement. While hundreds of studies have examined the factors predicting student achievement in PISA, a comprehensive overview of the main predictors has yet to be completed. To address this gap, we conducted a systematic…

Measuring Teenage Learners' Automatized, Explicit, and/or Implicit Knowledge: A Question of Context?
Alexandra Schurz – Language Learning, 2024
The present study administered six test instruments to 13- to 14-year-old learners of English in Austria and Sweden (N = 213), countries offering settings with more explicit and implicit learning environments, respectively. Confirmatory Factor Analyses for Austria yielded a factor comprising timed grammaticality judgment tests, an oral narrative…

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…

Jurij Selan; Mira Metljak – Center for Educational Policy Studies Journal, 2023
Since research integrity is not external to research but an integral part of it, it should be integrated into research training. However, several hindrances regarding contemporary research integrity education exist. To address them, we have developed a competency profile for teaching and learning research integrity based on four assumptions: 1) to…

Wang, Ze – Large-scale Assessments in Education, 2022
In educational and psychological research, it is common to use latent factors to represent constructs and then to examine covariate effects on these latent factors. Using empirical data, this study applied three approaches to covariate effects on latent factors: the multiple-indicator multiple-cause (MIMIC) approach, multiple group confirmatory…

Sirganci, Gozde; Uyumaz, Gizem; Yandi, Alperen – International Journal of Assessment Tools in Education, 2020
It is necessary to examine the measurement invariance (MI) among groups in studies where different groups are compared by using a measurement instrument. Most of the studies, measurement invariance is tested with multiple group confirmatory factor analysis. This model applies many model adjustments based on the modification indexes. Therefore, it…

Soysal, Sümeyra – Participatory Educational Research, 2023
Applying a measurement instrument developed in a specific country to other countries raise a critical and important question of interest in especially cross-cultural studies. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) is the most preferred and used method to examine the cross-cultural applicability of measurement tools. Although CFA is a sophisticated…

Azman Ong, Mohd Hanafi; Mohd Yasin, Norazlina; Ibrahim, Nur Syafikah – Asian Association of Open Universities Journal, 2022
Purpose: Measuring internal response of online learning is seen as fundamental to absorptive capacity which stimulates knowledge assimilation. However, the evaluation of practice and research of validated instruments that could effectively measure online learning response behavior is limited. Thus, in this study, a new instrument was designed…
