Kylie Anglin – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2022
Background: For decades, education researchers have relied on the work of Campbell, Cook, and Shadish to help guide their thinking about valid impact estimates in the social sciences (Campbell & Stanley, 1963; Shadish et al., 2002). The foundation of this work is the "validity typology" and its associated "threats to…

Yi Zou; Ying Zheng; Jingwen Wang – International Journal of Language Testing, 2025
The Pearson Test of English Academic (PTE-A), a widely used high-stakes language proficiency test for university admissions and migration purposes, underwent a notable change from a three-hour to a two-hour version in November 2021. The implementation of the new version has prompted inquiries into the washback effects on various stakeholders.…

Pei, Yalian; O'Brien, Katy H. – Journal of Research in Reading, 2023
Background: To examine levels of reading self-efficacy in college students and further understand sources that foster reading self-efficacy at the postsecondary level, there is a need for a valid scale that can be used for college student populations. Methods: In Phase 1, 160 items were generated and reviewed by a panel of experts and a group of…

Sarah Lindstrom Johnson; Ana Maria Meléndez Guevara; Ashley Preves – Grantee Submission, 2023
Introduction: Research suggests that one of the most pervasive consequences of traumatic events is the resulting dysregulation of emotions. Educators, including teachers, administrators, and student services staff, are instrumental in supporting students as they navigate overwhelming emotions by modeling and teaching skills to regulate emotional…

Acikgul, Kubra – International Journal of Assessment Tools in Education, 2021
The main aim of this study is to develop a useful, valid, and reliable two-tier proportional reasoning skill test for middle school 7th and 8th-grade students. The research was carried out using the sequential explanatory mixed method. The study group of this research comprised of 391 (n[subscript 7th-grade]=223, n[subscript 8th-grade]=168)…

Cano, Francisco; Pichardo, M. C.; Berbén, A. B. G.; Fernández-Cabezas, M. – Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, 2021
Most research on the course experience questionnaire (CEQ) has been conducted through conventional exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) within the independent cluster model framework (ICM-CFA). However, very few studies have focused on examining its multidimensionality using more flexible psychometric frameworks…

Laughter, Judson C.; Brown, Amelia A.; Neu, Lynnette W. – Journal of Teacher Education, 2022
Definitions of effective teaching focus on three primary areas: performances, essential knowledge, and critical dispositions. While no one measure provides a complete picture of teacher effectiveness, empirical inquiry into critical dispositions lags behind what is known about essential knowledge and performances. We found this underdevelopment…

Ahmad, Nor Shafrin; Zaharudin, Rozniza; Khairani, Ahmad Zamri – International Journal of Educational Methodology, 2022
Anger is a topic that requires intervention from teachers, counsellors, psychologists, parents, and all communities. The expressions of anger are subjective and sometimes hard to identify. Thus, anger should be measured more objectively, while the expressions need to be examined closely. The purpose of this study is to provide valid confirmation…

David C. R. Kerr; Harold Bae – Journal of American College Health, 2025
Objective: We considered the utility of National College Health Assessment (NCHA) data relative to other national data for studying college students' cannabis use and binge drinking, and drug policy effects. Participants: Survey data on 18-22-year old college students were drawn from the 2008-2018 NCHA, National Survey on Drug Use and Health…

Daoxuan Fu; Chunying Qin; Zhaosheng Luo; Yujun Li; Xiaofeng Yu; Ziyu Ye – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2025
One of the central components of cognitive diagnostic assessment is the Q-matrix, which is an essential loading indicator matrix and is typically constructed by subject matter experts. Nonetheless, to a large extent, the construction of Q-matrix remains a subjective process and might lead to misspecifications. Many researchers have recognized the…

Timothy R. Konold; Elizabeth A. Sanders; Kelvin Afolabi – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2025
Measurement invariance (MI) is an essential part of validity evidence concerned with ensuring that tests function similarly across groups, contexts, and time. Most evaluations of MI involve multigroup confirmatory factor analyses (MGCFA) that assume simple structure. However, recent research has shown that constraining non-target indicators to…

K. Talman; J. Vierula; T. Karihtala; E. Laakkonen; J. Engblom; E. Haavisto – Higher Education Quarterly, 2025
Higher education institutions need to develop valid, fair, and objective selection methods. Current literature reporting the development and validation of new national large-scale selection tests is scarce. This two-phased study aimed to (1) develop and (2) evaluate the validity of the Finnish digital Universities of Applied Sciences Entrance…

Mine Isiksal Bostan; Serife Sevinç; Magdalini Lada; Zbynek Kubácek – International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2025
In this cross-national study, we explore the different ways of reasoning-and-proving (RP) presented in three 8th grade textbooks, one from each country: Turkey, Norway, and Slovakia. While the analysis revealed that all three textbooks contain similar numbers of problems involving some form of RP, differences exist in terms of the dominating ways…

Andreas Bergwall – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2025
Students' difficulties with proofs are well documented. To remedy this, it is often recommended that reasoning and proving be focused on in all grades and content areas of school mathematics. However, proofs continue to have a marginal place in many classrooms, or are only given explicit attention in courses in Euclidean geometry. Geometry is also…
