Direct linkPhillips, Gary W. – Applied Measurement in Education, 2015
This article proposes that sampling design effects have potentially huge unrecognized impacts on the results reported by large-scale district and state assessments in the United States. When design effects are unrecognized and unaccounted for they lead to underestimating the sampling error in item and test statistics. Underestimating the sampling…

Wolf, Mikyung Kim; Kim, Jinok; Kao, Jenny – Applied Measurement in Education, 2012
Glossary and reading aloud test items are commonly allowed in many states' accommodation policies for English language learner (ELL) students for large-scale mathematics assessments. However, little research is available regarding the effects of these accommodations on ELL students' performance. Further, no research exists that examines how…

Peer reviewedYang, Yongwei; Buckendahl, Chad W.; Juskiewicz, Piotr J.; Bhola, Dennison S. – Applied Measurement in Education, 2002
Reviews current computer-assisted scoring (CAS) systems and reviews the current practice of validating CAS-system generated scores. Also presents a conceptual framework and general recommendations for designing validation studies for CAS procedures. (SLD)

Webb, Norman L. – Applied Measurement in Education, 2007
A process for judging the alignment between curriculum standards and assessments developed by the author is presented. This process produces information on the relationship of standards and assessments on four alignment criteria: Categorical Concurrence, Depth of Knowledge Consistency, Range of Knowledge Correspondence, and Balance of…

Peer reviewedKolen, Michael J. – Applied Measurement in Education, 1990
Articles on equating test forms in this issue are reviewed and discussed. The results of these papers collectively indicate that matching on the anchor test does not result in more accurate equating. Implications for research are discussed. (SLD)

Herman, Joan L.; Webb, Noreen M.; Zuniga, Stephen A. – Applied Measurement in Education, 2007
This study examined the impact of rater agreement on decisions concerning the alignment between the "Golden State Examination in High School Mathematics" (California Department of Education, 2001a) and the University of California (UC) "Statement on Competencies in Mathematics Expected of Entering College Students" (Academic…

Peer reviewedDorans, Neil J. – Applied Measurement in Education, 1990
The equating methods and sampling designs used in the empirical studies in this special issue on the use of matched samples for test equating are described. Four requisites for equating are listed, and the invariance of equating functions requisite is identified as the focus of this issue. (SLD)
