Keke Lai – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2024
When a researcher proposes an SEM model to explain the dynamics among some latent variables, the real question in model evaluation is the fit of the model's structural part. A composite index that lumps the fit of the structural part and measurement part does not directly address that question. The need for more attention to structural-level fit…

Sergio Dominguez-Lara; Mario A. Trógolo; Rodrigo Moreta-Herrera; Diego Vaca-Quintana; Manuel Fernández-Arata; Ana Paredes-Proaño – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2025
Academic engagement plays a crucial role in students' learning and performance. One of the most popular measures for assessing this construct is the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale for Students (UWES-S), which is based on a tridimensional conceptualization consisting of dedication, vigor, and absorption. However, prior research on its factor…

Rachel A. Gross – ProQuest LLC, 2020
The present study was motivated by the theory-method mismatch between heterotypic continuity (aspects of development that manifest differently across the lifespan thus cannot be measured the same way over time) and longitudinal measurement equivalence (the statistical assumption that the developmental phenomenon studied is measured on the same…

Chen Zong – ProQuest LLC, 2021
A predictive model of undergraduate graduation rate at the institutional level is important and useful to researchers, administrators, and policy makers in higher education. Graduation rate is a key indicator for higher education institutional performance. This study aimed to replicate, revise, and validate the model of Institutional Performance…

Lewis, Todd F. – Measurement and Evaluation in Counseling and Development, 2017
American Educational Research Association (AERA) standards stipulate that researchers show evidence of the internal structure of instruments. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) is one structural equation modeling procedure designed to assess construct validity of assessments that has broad applicability for counselors interested in instrument…

Fernández Faúndez, Eva María – Electronic Journal of Research in Educational Psychology, 2018
Introduction: The focus of our research converges on the analysis of attitudes and the prediction of the behavior of university students towards the inclusion of students with disabilities in university. The evaluation of attitudes and the prediction of behavior are complex, but it is fundamental because of the decisive impact they have on the…

Sette, Stefania; Zuffianò, Antonio; Lucidi, Fabio; Laghi, Fiorenzo; Lonigro, Antonia; Baumgartner, Emma – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2018
The study analyzed the factorial and concurrent validity of the Student-Teacher Relationship Scale (STRS) using an exploratory structural equation modeling (ESEM) approach. Participants were 368 Italian children aged 3 to 6 (M = 4.60, SD = 0.98). The three-factor ESEM solution fit the data better than the classical confirmatory factor analysis…

Chung, ChihMing; Liao, Xiaolan; Song, Hairong; Lee, Taehun – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2016
The multi-dimensionality of Physical Self-Perception Profile (PSPP) has been acknowledged by the use of correlated-factor model and second-order model. In this study, the authors critically endorse the bifactor model, as a substitute to address the multi-dimensionality of PSPP. To cross-validate the models, analyses are conducted first in…

Karakaya-Ozyer, Kubra; Aksu-Dunya, Beyza – International Journal of Research in Education and Science, 2018
Structural equation modeling (SEM) is one of the most popular multivariate statistical techniques in Turkish educational research. This study elaborates the SEM procedures employed by 75 educational research articles which were published from 2010 to 2015 in Turkey. After documenting and coding 75 academic papers, categorical frequencies and…

Kajonius, Petri J. – International Journal of Testing, 2017
Research is currently testing how the new maladaptive personality inventory for DSM (PID-5) and the well-established common Five-Factor Model (FFM) together can serve as an empirical and theoretical foundation for clinical psychology. The present study investigated the official short version of the PID-5 together with a common short version of…

Kember, David; Ho, Amaly; Leung, Doris Y. P. – Journal of Further and Higher Education, 2016
There is a need for a questionnaire designed specifically to evaluate taught postgraduate (TPg) awards for quality assurance or enhancement purposes. Comparison of undergraduate and TPg awards suggests that as the former have broadened their ambit to better nurture generic graduate attributes, TPg awards have concentrated on advanced specialised…

McDermott, Elana R.; Donlan, Alice E.; Zaff, Jonathan F.; Prescott, Jennifer E. – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2016
Youth who have disengaged from and subsequently returned to school are qualitatively different from students with continual educational enrollment. In this study, we examined the validity for two measures: the Adult Hope Scale (AHS) and Persistence in Goal Striving (PGS) Scale, among two samples of reengaged students (i.e., students who have…

Yuet, Fanny Kho Chee; Yusof, Hamidah; Mohamad, Syed Ismail Syed – Malaysian Journal of Learning and Instruction, 2016
Purpose: The main purpose of the study was to develop an empirically validated Teacher Leadership Competency Model (TLCM) which would enhance teacher leadership competencies in Malaysian secondary schools. There is currently no established instrument that measures teacher leadership competency, particularly in the Malaysian context. Methodology:…

Finster, Matthew – Online Submission, 2017
This brief presents initial evidence about the reliability and validity of a novice teacher survey and a novice teacher supervisor survey. The novice teacher and novice teacher supervisor surveys assess how well prepared novice teachers are to meet the job requirements of teaching. The surveys are designed to provide educator preparation programs…

Becker, Stephen P.; Burns, G. Leonard; Schmitt, Aidan P.; Epstein, Jeffery N.; Tamm, Leanne – Grantee Submission, 2017
Despite increasing interest in sluggish cognitive tempo (SCT) in children, the field is stymied by the lack of a standard symptom set that can be used across studies. Without a standard symptom set, it is difficult to determine if differences across studies are due to methodological or sample differences, or simply the way SCT was measured. To…
