'Camouflaging' is a set of strategies used by autistic people to hide or compensate for their autistic characteristics to fit into predominantly non-autistic social environments. Many researchers have used the Camouflaging Autistic Traits Questionnaire (CAT-Q) to measure camouflaging. However, there have been questions about the construct validity…

This study aimed to develop and validate the Gamified AI Learning Engagement and Motivation Scale (GALEMS) to assess secondary school students' motivation and engagement within AI-enhanced gamified learning environments in Jordan. The research employed a sequential exploratory mixed methods design grounded in Self-Determination Theory and Flow…

Regularly assessing students' learning using evidence-based cognitive models can enhance learning by supporting teachers' monitoring and scaffolding decisions. In the case of mathematics, this is considered especially essential for topics renowned as being complex for students, like fractions. Although previous findings from paper-based studies…

Students are often encouraged to learn 'deeply' by abstracting generalizable principles from course content rather than memorizing details. So widespread is this perspective that Likert-style inventories are now routinely administered to students to quantify how much a given course or curriculum evokes deep learning. The predictive validity of…

This study verified validity and reliability of the School Function Assessment (SFA) using Rasch analysis in South Korean school-based occupational therapy sites serving children with intellectual disabilities and others. Participants were 103 elementary school children (grades 1 through 6) with disabilities. Rasch analysis revealed several…

This study aimed at evaluating preschool teachers' knowledge of early mathematical development. To this end, the validity and reliability of the 'Knowledge of Mathematical Development (KMD) Survey,' were determined by adapting it to Turkish culture, and using this tool, the participants' KMD was examined with different variables. The research…

Purpose: To examine the factor structure and measurement invariance of the Körperkoordinations Test Für Kinder (KTK) and covariates of motor competence in a sample of Iranian children aged 5-14 years. Methods: Participants were children aged 5-14 years (N = 432, 61% boys). Age, sex, and body mass index were collected. Confirmatory factor analysis…

Psychological inflexibility has been associated with several mental health indicators. The Avoidance and Fusion Questionnaire for Youth (AFQ-Y) has been the most used measure to assess psychological inflexibility in adolescents, having been adapted to several different languages, including Portuguese. However, the short 8-item version of this…

Language learner attitudes about technology have traditionally been studied using survey data, but those surveys have primarily been based on disparate constructs and conceptualizations of learner attitudes. The lack of a common measure, or one that reflects other levels and contexts of learning, has limited the investigation about language…

One of the major purposes of this study is to investigate the potential impact of gender and information and computer technology (ICT) resources on students' computational thinking (CT) competencies. To this end, the Computational Thinking Test for Junior High Students (CTT-JH) was developed and validated. Research participants included 437 junior…

The importance of the opportunity to learn (OTL) for mathematics achievement has been extensively researched. However, there were still unanswered questions regarding OTL's measurement, analytical level, and relationship with motivational beliefs. To fill in the gaps, we aimed to (1) scrutinize the reliability and validity of OTL, (2) investigate…

There is little empirical data on the extent of home numeracy practice using technology, though previous research shows that home numeracy activities are linked with children's mathematics abilities. This study describes the process of constructing an inventory of digital home numeracy practice (DHNP-i). Parents (n = 126) of elementary children…

Background: The Teacher-Student relationship (TSR) is instrumental for young children and adolescents' socio-emotional development and wellbeing as well as academic engagement and progress. Aims: The primary aim of this study was to test the psychometric properties, including reliability and factorial, convergent, and predictive validity, of the…

Professional skills of project planning, risk analysis, ethical design, communication, and working in interprofessional teams are now recognised as core engineering skills. Frequently, they are addressed in engineering education through team projects. However, these skills can be difficult for students to learn as they are often not well defined…

In Saskatchewan, school divisions have been largely tasked with creating classroom-based assessment policy as, until very recently, the province lacked a current, Ministry-produced guiding document. Using an inductive and qualitative approach to summative content analysis, informed by a policy analysis framework, this project focused on school…
