Lee, In Heok; Sovet, Laurent; Banda, Kiyomi; Kang, Dae-Koo; Park, Joo-Ho – International Journal for Educational and Vocational Guidance, 2021
The Career Adapt-Abilities Scale (CAAS) has been validated in several East Asian countries, but the measurement equivalence of its four dimensions and construct validity has not yet been evaluated in Japan. Results from Japanese (n = 298) and South Korean (n = 301) college students indicated good to excellent internal consistency estimates, and…

Yu-Tzu Chang; Ann Tai Choe; Daniel Holden; Daniel R. Isbell – Language Testing, 2024
In this Brief Report, we describe an evaluation of and revisions to a rubric adapted from the Jacobs et al.'s (1981) ESL COMPOSITION PROFILE, with four rubric categories and 20-point rating scales, in the context of an intensive English program writing placement test. Analysis of 4 years of rating data (2016-2021, including 434 essays) using…

Bowen-Mendoza, Lorena; Pinargote-Ortega, Maricela; Meza, Jaime; Ventura, Sebastián – Journal of Computing in Higher Education, 2022
Peer evaluation consists of the evaluation of students by their peers following criteria or rubrics provided by the teacher, where the way to evaluate students is specified so that they achieve the desired competencies. The quality of the measurement instrument must meet two essential criteria: validity and reliability. In this research, we…

Purwanto; Hidayah, Niswatul; Wagistina, Satti – International Journal of Educational Methodology, 2023
Learning geography in Indonesia philosophically aims to develop spatial literacy. Students must improve spatial literacy to form reasoning skills and apply spatial concepts in real life. Applying Gersmehl's spatial learning can improve students' spatial literacy through syntax arranged based on spatial aspects. The use of google earth helps…

Lambie, Glenn W.; Tabet, Saundra M.; Stickl Haugen, Jaimie – Teacher Development, 2022
In response to the absence of an instrument to measure educator inspiration with evidence of validity and reliability, the authors developed the "Educator Inspire Scale" (EIS), an assessment designed to assess the construct of inspiration in educators. Therefore, their investigation examined the psychometric properties of the EIS scores…

Mihyun Son; Minsu Ha – Education and Information Technologies, 2025
Digital literacy is essential for scientific literacy in a digital world. Although the NGSS Practices include many activities that require digital literacy, most studies have examined digital literacy from a generic perspective rather than a curricular context. This study aimed to develop a self-report tool to measure elements of digital literacy…

Papenberg, Martin; Diedenhofen, Birk; Musch, Jochen – Journal of Experimental Education, 2021
Testwiseness may introduce construct-irrelevant variance to multiple-choice test scores. Presenting response options sequentially has been proposed as a potential solution to this problem. In an experimental validation, we determined the psychometric properties of a test based on the sequential presentation of response options. We created a strong…

Petronzi, Dominic; Staples, Paul; Sheffield, David; Hunt, Thomas E.; Fitton-Wilde, Sandra – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2019
There are currently many mathematics anxiety rating scales designed typically for adult and older children populations, yet there remains a lack of assessment tools for younger children (< 7 years of age) despite a recent focus on this age range. Following previous testing and validation, the 26-item iteration of the Children's Mathematics…

Barker, Brittan A.; Jones, Hannah D.; Daquanno, Chelsi G. – Volta Review, 2018
The Infant-Toddler Meaningful Auditory Integration Scale (IT-MAIS) is used to assess auditory development in young children with hearing loss. Despite being widely used, previous research showed that its psychometric properties are not ideal. As a first step toward psychometric advancements of the IT-MAIS, this study aimed to create videos with…

Daniel Rodriguez-Segura; Beth E. Schueler – Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, 2022
School closures induced by COVID-19 placed heightened emphasis on alternative ways to measure student learning besides in-person exams. We leverage the administration of phone-based assessments (PBAs) measuring numeracy and literacy for primary school children in Kenya, along with in-person standardized tests administered to the same students…

Storey, Valerie A.; Johnson, Jerry – Education Leadership Review, 2017
Perceived shortage of principals, increased accountability demands, the changing role of principals, and the growing influence of the state over school administration have created a set of challenges for principal certification and licensure that have propelled a renewed need for analysis of certification and licensure processes. Recent calls to…

Zhang, Mo; van Rijn, Peter W.; Deane, Paul; Bennett, Randy E. – Educational Assessment, 2019
Writing from source text is critical for developing college-and-career readiness because it is required in advanced academic environments and many vocations. Scenario-based assessment (SBA) represents one approach to measuring this ability. In such assessment, the scenario presents an issue that the student is to read and write about. Before…

Asikainen, Mervi A. – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science & Technology Education, 2017
The study investigated the use of Quantum Physics Conceptual Survey (QPCS) in probing student understanding of quantum physics. Altogether 103 Finnish university students responded to QPCS. The mean scores of the student responses were calculated and the test was evaluated using common five indices: Item difficulty index, Item discrimination…
