Susan K. Johnsen – Gifted Child Today, 2025
The author provides information about reliability and areas that educators should examine in determining if an assessment is consistent and trustworthy for use, and how it should be interpreted in making decisions about students. Reliability areas that are discussed in the column include internal consistency, test-retest or stability, inter-scorer…

Samuel D'Emanuele; Francesca Nardello; Fabrizio Garau; Diego Campaci; Federico Schena; Cantor Tarperi – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2025
The agreement between a wearable inertial sensor (GYKO, G) and the force platform (P) was assessed by evaluating "test-retest" and "inter-rater reliability." Thirty-eight subjects were enrolled; the selected indices of balance were investigated over foot positions and (un)stable conditions. Intraclass correlation coefficient…

Tahereh Firoozi; Hamid Mohammadi; Mark J. Gierl – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2025
The purpose of this study is to describe and evaluate a multilingual automated essay scoring (AES) system for grading essays in three languages. Two different sentence embedding models were evaluated within the AES system, multilingual BERT (mBERT) and language-agnostic BERT sentence embedding (LaBSE). German, Italian, and Czech essays were…

Chase Young; Benjamin Mitchell-Yellin; George Kevin Randall – Active Learning in Higher Education, 2025
The purpose of this study was to develop a valid, reliable, and brief measure of active learning in college classrooms that is cheap and easy to complete and yields results that faculty can easily use to inform their development as instructors. Initial construct and face validity was achieved by modifying existing instruments and creating a draft…

Kathryn J. Greenslade; Julia K. Bushell; Emily F. Dillon; Amy E. Ramage – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2025
Background: Pragmatic communication difficulties encompass many distinct behaviours, including the use of vague and/or insufficient language, a common characteristic following traumatic brain injury (TBI) that negatively impacts psychosocial outcomes. Existing assessments evaluate pragmatic communication broadly, often with only one or two items…

Ole J. Kemi – Advances in Physiology Education, 2025
Students are assessed by coursework and/or exams, all of which are marked by assessors (markers). Student and marker performances are then subject to end-of-session board of examiner handling and analysis. This occurs annually and is the basis for evaluating students but also the wider learning and teaching efficiency of an academic institution.…

Kelsey Nason; Christine DeMars – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2025
This study examined the widely used threshold of 0.2 for Yen's Q3, an index for violations of local independence. Specifically, a simulation was conducted to investigate whether Q3 values were related to the magnitude of bias in estimates of reliability, item parameters, and examinee ability. Results showed that Q3 values below the typical cut-off…

Elizabeth Choi-Tucci; John Sideris; Cristin Holland; Grace T. Baranek; Linda R. Watson – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2025
Purpose: Intentional communication acts, or purposefully directed vocalizations and gestures, are particularly difficult for infants at elevated likelihood for eventual diagnosis of autism. The ability to measure and track intentional communication in infancy thus has the potential to aid early identification and intervention efforts. This study…

Patricia Ayllón-Salas; Mirian Hervás-Torres; José L. Arco-Tirado; Francisco D. Fernández-Martín – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2025
Despite the evolution of the grit conceptualization over the years, the psychometric validity of scales and construct structure remain unclear. Consequently, this study aims to provide new evidence that broadens the current understanding of the grit's dimensional nature in the Spanish population by examining the psychometric properties of the…

Ting Ma; Lawrence Jun Zhang; Judy M. Parr – Language Awareness, 2025
Studies have shown that raising L2 learners' metaphor awareness contributes to the acquisition of figurative language, which fosters students' development of language skills. However, the instruments measuring metaphor awareness, in the majority of relevant research, did not seem to have undergone proper methodological procedures for checking…

Heena Kamble; Satishchandra Kumar – British Journal of Guidance & Counselling, 2025
The present paper aimed to develop and standardise a scale for assessing life skills in adults as per a ten-factor model given by World Health Organization (WHO), which was accomplished by revising a pre-existing 100-item life skills scale for adolescents. The objective was met in three consecutive studies. A revised 19-items life skills scale…
