Direct linkXu, Ting; Stone, Clement A. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2012
It has been argued that item response theory trait estimates should be used in analyses rather than number right (NR) or summated scale (SS) scores. Thissen and Orlando postulated that IRT scaling tends to produce trait estimates that are linearly related to the underlying trait being measured. Therefore, IRT trait estimates can be more useful…

Paulhus, Delroy L.; Dubois, Patrick J. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2014
The overclaiming technique is a novel assessment procedure that uses signal detection analysis to generate indices of knowledge accuracy (OC-accuracy) and self-enhancement (OC-bias). The technique has previously shown robustness over varied knowledge domains as well as low reactivity across administration contexts. Here we compared the OC-accuracy…

The hypothesis tested in this study: that high and low academic promise groups might show differing levels of predictability of their college grades from standard entrance measures. (Authors)

Peer reviewedSockloff, Alan L.; And Others – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1973
The prediction of academic achievement within a single university was improved by adjusting predictions on the basis of a multiplicative weight which measures the relative mean success of former graduates from each of the various feeder high schools. (Authors)

Peer reviewedConger, Anthony J.; Jackson, Douglas N. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1972
Paper discusses the nature of the suppressor variable, constraints upon the degree of gain in predictability by the addition of a suppressor, and the distinct aims of prediction and of construct measurement. (Authors/MB)

The Differential Predictive Validity of the Initial Skills Analysis: Reading Screening Tests for K-3
Pomplun, Mark – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2004
The present study investigated the differential predictive validity of the Initial Skills Analysis. In the fall, these reading screening tests were administered to students in Grades K to 3. In the spring, a series of reading outcomes tests were administered to these same students, and teachers provided judgments of the students' reading skills.…

Sireci, Stephen G.; Talento-Miller, Eileen – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2006
Admissions data and first-year grade point average (GPA) data from 11 graduate management schools were analyzed to evaluate the predictive validity of Graduate Management Admission Test[R] (GMAT[R]) scores and the extent to which predictive validity held across sex and race/ethnicity. The results indicated GMAT verbal and quantitative scores had…
