Zhong Jian Chee; Anke M. Scheeren; Marieke de Vries – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2024
Despite several psychometric advantages over the 50-item Autism Spectrum Quotient, an instrument used to measure autistic traits, the abridged AQ-28 and its cross-cultural validity have not been examined as extensively. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the factor structure and measurement invariance of the AQ-28 in 818 Dutch (M[subscript…

Villarreal, Victor; Sullivan, Jeremy; Hechler, Joseph M.; Ruiz, Karen – Journal of Applied School Psychology, 2021
Assessment of functional impairment provides information that is complementary to diagnostic criteria information and is critical for identifying targets for intervention and evaluating treatment outcomes. This review presents summative psychometric information for five multidimensional measures of functional impairment developed for use with…

LaFlair, Geoffrey T.; Langenfeld, Thomas; Baig, Basim; Horie, André Kenji; Attali, Yigal; von Davier, Alina A. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2022
Background: Digital-first assessments leverage the affordances of technology in all elements of the assessment process--from design and development to score reporting and evaluation to create test taker-centric assessments. Objectives: The goal of this paper is to describe the engineering, machine learning, and psychometric processes and…

Chamoy, Waritsa – ProQuest LLC, 2018
The main purpose of this study was to conduct a validation analysis of student surveys of teaching effectiveness implemented at Bangkok University, Thailand. This study included three phases; survey development, a pilot study, and a full implementation study. Four sources of validity evidence were collected to support intended interpretations and…

Irby, Sarah M.; Floyd, Randy G. – Canadian Journal of School Psychology, 2013
The Wechsler Abbreviated Scale of Intelligence, Second Edition (WASI-II; Wechsler, 2011) is a brief intelligence test designed for individuals aged 6 through 90 years. It is a revision of the Wechsler Abbreviated Scale of Intelligence (WASI; Wechsler, 1999). During revision, there were three goals: enhancing the link between the Wechsler…

Lee, Eunjung; Lee, Won-Chan; Brennan, Robert L. – College Board, 2012
In almost all high-stakes testing programs, test equating is necessary to ensure that test scores across multiple test administrations are equivalent and can be used interchangeably. Test equating becomes even more challenging in mixed-format tests, such as Advanced Placement Program® (AP®) Exams, that contain both multiple-choice and constructed…

Dorans, Neil J. – Educational Measurement: Issues and Practice, 2012
Views on testing--its purpose and uses and how its data are analyzed--are related to one's perspective on test takers. Test takers can be viewed as learners, examinees, or contestants. I briefly discuss the perspective of test takers as learners. I maintain that much of psychometrics views test takers as examinees. I discuss test takers as a…

Elosua, Paula; Iliescu, Dragos – International Journal of Testing, 2012
Psychometric practice does not always converge with the advances of psychometric theory. In order to investigate this gap, the authors focus on the 10 most used psychological tests in Europe, as identified by recent surveys. The article analyzes test manuals published in 6 different European countries for these 10 most used tests. A total of 32…

McCauley, Rebecca J.; Strand, Edythe A. – American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology, 2008
Purpose: To review the content and psychometric characteristics of 6 published tests currently available to aid in the study, diagnosis, and treatment of motor speech disorders in children. Method: We compared the content of the 6 tests and critically evaluated the degree to which important psychometric characteristics support the tests' use for…

ten Berge, Jos M. F.; Zegers, Frits E. – Psychometrika, 1978
Two lower bounds to reliability in classical test theory, Guttman's lamda and Cronbach's alpha, are shown to be terms of an infinite series of lower bounds. All terms of this series are equal to reliability if and only if the test contains items which are tau-equivalent. (Author/JKS)

Huck, Schuyler W. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1978
Hoyt's analysis of variance procedure for estimating reliability assumes that the residual mean square estimates error variability. If, however, an individual's true score varies across items, it is argued that residual mean square estimates two components--error and interaction--and hence Winer's modification of Hoyt's formula, understimates the…

Noble, Gilbert H. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1977
A computer program providing comprehensive test and item analysis is presented. Completing its performance on one run, the program, written in Fortran and emphasizing ease of use, integrates various statistical techniques for analyzing individual items and the overall test, in addition to generating a variety of standard scores.

Bakermans-Kranenburg, Marian J; van IJzendoorn, Marinus H. – Developmental Psychology, 1993
Examined the validity of the Adult Attachment Interview (AAI) measure by interviewing 83 mothers twice over 2 months, using different interviewers on each occasion. The results indicated that the reliability of the AAI classifications was quite high over time and across interviewers. The AAI classifications were independent of nonattachment…
