The rapid digital transformation of vocational education and training (VET) has underscored the need to adapt traditional assessment methods to digital formats. However, when transitioning to digital modes, it is crucial to consider factors beyond mere technical implementation, particularly the potential impact of altered presentation formats on…

Although visual creativity in art affects all variables of the learning and teaching process, no measurement tool has been found in the Turkish literature regarding the level of students? visual creativity in art. In this study, a measurement tool was developed to measure visual creativity levels of primary school students in art and evidence…

Introduction: Numerous studies have investigated the use of Wechsler tests on individuals with visual impairments. However, few studies have examined the utilization of the fourth edition of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC-IV) for such individuals. This study investigated the reliability and validity of the WISC-IV Verbal…

This study aims to develop a test that can be used to explore mental models and representation patterns of objects in liquid fluid. The test developed by adapting the Reeves's Development Model was carried out in several stages, namely: determining the orientation and test segments; initial survey; preparation of the initial draft; try out;…

Motivation for reading is important to comprehension and has been studied extensively in offline reading contexts. However, little is known about the role of motivation in online reading, a new and increasingly important context for reading, largely because of a lack of valid and reliable instruments to estimate a student's motivation for online…

Take a family of independent events. If some of these events, or all of them, are replaced by their complements, then independence still holds. This fact, which is agreed upon by the members of the statistical/probability communities, is tremendously well known, is fairly intuitive and has always been frequently used for easing probability…

This study provides a solid validity inferential network to guide the development, interpretation, and use of machine learning-based next-generation science assessments (NGSAs). Given that machine learning (ML) has been broadly implemented in the automatic scoring of constructed responses, essays, simulations, educational games, and…

Supervision is an important component of counselor development; however, limited research exists on evaluating supervision. There is also a lack of comprehensive, psychometrically strong assessments to measure supervision competencies. In this study we focused on the development of the Supervision Competencies Scale (SCS), an assessment designed…

The purpose of this article is to provide an explicit formula for the bounds of integration of the regular simplex centred at the origin. Furthermore, this article rigorously proves that these integration bounds recover the volume of the regular simplex. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first time that such integration bounds have been…

Response process validity evidence can provide researchers with insight into how and why participants interpret items on instruments such as tests and questionnaires. In chemistry education research literature and the social sciences more broadly, response process validity evidence has been used and reported in a variety of ways. This paper's…

The validity of the Kappa coefficient of chance-corrected agreement has been questioned when the prevalence of specific rating scale categories is low and agreement between raters is high. The researchers proposed the Lambda Coefficient of Rater-Mediated Agreement as an alternative to Kappa to address these concerns. Lambda corrects for chance…

Purpose: Since reflectivity has a crucial role in education, it has attracted researchers' attention in the last decades. As such, the present study aimed to construct and validate a questionnaire to assess the barriers to reflective practices of Iranian ESP (English for Specific Purposes) instructors. Furthermore, this study aimed to investigate…

Social perception is an evaluation process, which uses any information available in order to form impressions, understanding, and judgments about others. It is also considered as an essential element of social skills. This study aims to examine the psychometric analysis of students' social perceptions of mathematics using Rasch model analysis.…

The importance of developing and assessing student critical thinking at university can be seen through its inclusion as a graduate attribute for universities and from research highlighting the value employers, educators and students place on demonstrating critical thinking skills. Critical thinking skills are seldom explicitly assessed at…

The goal of this study was to establish the validity and reliability of a self-report tool for assessing individual differences in innovative thinking, based on a modification of the 'innovative behavior scale'. A five-stage study was conducted among engineering students worldwide, who enrolled in a massive open online course in Nanotechnology and…
