Gazal Bharara; Scott Duncan – Psychology in the Schools, 2024
The transition to secondary school can be a challenging period for adolescents. Although several questionnaires exist to measure transition-related concerns, there is a need to develop a comprehensive survey for assessing the knowledge and skills that adolescents require to adapt effectively to a new school. Thus, the purpose of this study was to…

Ahmet Serhat Gözütok; Süleyman Akçil; Ihsan Çagatay Ulus – Journal of Learning and Teaching in Digital Age, 2024
Over the last two decades, cyberbullying has gained increasing attention from the research community as the phenomenon has become a public health issue affecting children, adolescents, and young adults. Although several instruments assess cyberbullying worldwide, many still need to be adequately validated in different languages, countries, and…

Kiera Coulter; Melissa Y. Delgado; Rajni L. Nair; Lorey A. Wheeler; Rayni Thomas – Child & Youth Care Forum, 2024
Background: The positive youth development (PYD) framework orients developmental scholarship to focusing on youth's strengths rather than deficits, however, validity evidence on PYD measures among ethnic-minority youth is limited. Objectives: The objectives of the current study were to (a) examine the factor structure of a PYD measure within a…

Fatma Özgün Öztürk; Ganime Can Gür – International Journal of Assessment Tools in Education, 2024
This research aims to develop an instrument for the evaluation of impulsivity traits in children and to examine the psychometric features of the developed scale. The process of developing the scale involved three main phases: namely, item generation, evaluation of content validity, and analysis of psychometric properties. The study sample…

Franklin S. Allaire; J. Patrick King; Anne C. Frenzel – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2024
Research and national surveys show that deficiencies in elementary science teaching preparation are frustratingly persistent. Understanding positive and negative emotions as they relate to planning and teaching science is relevant for both the well-being of teachers and the quality of their teaching. There needs to be more empirical evidence on…

Karina Mostert; Clarisse van Rensburg; Reitumetse Machaba – Journal of Applied Research in Higher Education, 2024
Purpose: This study examined the psychometric properties of intention to drop out and study satisfaction measures for first-year South African students. The factorial validity, item bias, measurement invariance and reliability were tested. Design/methodology/approach: A cross-sectional design was used. For the study on intention to drop out, 1,820…

Rigaud Joseph – Journal of Social Work Education, 2024
This study aimed to expand the psychometric properties of the Theory Evaluation Scale (TES), specifically its structure, construct validity, and internal consistency. A demographically diverse sample of 113 social work faculty (N = 113) utilized the TES to appraise a social work theory and their responses were used for exploratory factor analysis…

Hatice Merve Imir; K. Büsra Kaynak-Ekici; Z. Fulya Temel – Infant and Child Development, 2024
This study examines metacognitive monitoring in Turkish preschoolers aged 48--66 months, crucial for their learning and development. A specialised paired-association task was designed to assess higher-order thinking skills in this age group. Data from 160 children (52.5% girls, 47.5% boys; mean age 57.6 months, standard deviation 4.8) were…

Ali H. Al-Hoorie; Phil Hiver; Yo In'nami – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2024
Concerns have recently been raised about the validity of scales used in the L2 motivational self system tradition, particularly in relation to sufficient discriminant validity among some of its scales. These concerns highlight the need to systematically examine the validity of scales used in this tradition. In this study, we therefore compiled a…

Fujimoto, Ken A.; Neugebauer, Sabina R. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2020
Although item response theory (IRT) models such as the bifactor, two-tier, and between-item-dimensionality IRT models have been devised to confirm complex dimensional structures in educational and psychological data, they can be challenging to use in practice. The reason is that these models are multidimensional IRT (MIRT) models and thus are…

Beauducel, André; Kersting, Martin – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2020
We investigated by means of a simulation study how well methods for factor rotation can identify a two-facet simple structure. Samples were generated from orthogonal and oblique two-facet population factor models with 4 (2 factors per facet) to 12 factors (6 factors per facet). Samples drawn from orthogonal populations were submitted to factor…

The early recognition of ASD in adults is challenging, in particular due to the lack of appropriate and robust diagnostic tools. We performed a psychometric validation and diagnostic accuracy study of the French version of the RAADS-R on a sample of 305 adults: 105 with ASD without ID, 99 with psychiatric disorders, and 103 non-psychiatric control…

Tsaousis, Ioannis; Sideridis, Georgios D.; Alahmadi, Maisaa Taleb S. – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2021
Positive youth development has gained a lot of attention recently since it acts as a protective factor for several risk behaviors and other important life outcomes in adolescents and young adults. The main objective of this study was to explore the factorial structure of the Positive Youth Development Scale (PYDS) using multidimensional item…

Martinez, Alfonso J. – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2021
Students' ability to effectively allocate time toward educational tasks and reduction of maladaptive behaviors such as procrastination are important predictors of successful educational outcomes. The Academic Time Management and Procrastination Measure (ATMPM) purports to measure the extent to which students engage in such behaviors; however, the…
