This book explores the transformative role of artificial intelligence in educational assessment, catering to researchers, educators, administrators, policymakers, and technologists involved in shaping the future of education. It delves into the foundations of AI-assisted assessment, innovative question types and formats, data analysis techniques,…

As artificial intelligence (AI) receives wider attention in education, examining teachers' acceptance of AI (TAAI) becomes essential. However, existing instruments measuring TAAI reported limited validity evidence and faced some design challenges, such as missing informed definitions of AI to participants. To fill this gap, this study developed…

The 2025-2026 Indiana Assessments Policy Manual communicates established guidelines regarding appropriate test administration in Indiana for key stakeholders including educators and Test Coordinators.

TIMSS (Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study) is a long-standing international assessment of mathematics and science at the fourth and eighth grades, collecting trend data every four years since 1995. Over 70 countries rely on TIMSS to monitor their education systems in a global context, benchmarking national curricula and…

This report provides an in-depth comparison of TOEFL iBT® and the Duolingo English Test (DET) in terms of the degree to which both tests assess academic language proficiency in listening, reading, writing, and speaking. The analysis is based on publicly available documentation on both tests, including sample test questions available on the test…

Different types of test items influence students' test anxiety, and physiological measures such as heart rate provide a means of measuring this anxiety. This study aimed to explore the connection between test anxiety and examination item formats. It centered on 20 junior university students in Western Türkiye. The research monitored students'…

Background: Given the significant gap in tailored assessment tools, this research seeks to adapt the Self-concept (Form 5-AF5) questionnaire for young students with intellectual disabilities, employing an inclusive approach. Method: Twenty-three disability experts initially assessed questionnaire suitability, leading to revisions for clarity.…

The testing effect is a well-established phenomenon in cognitive psychology that refers to enhanced long-term retention of information due to active recalling through testing. Following a cross-disciplinary translation of the testing effect into behavioral principles, we systematically replicated the previous findings in a behavior-analytic…

In this study, the performance of artificial intelligence chatbots--OpenAI's ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Microsoft's Copilot--was evaluated and compared based on their responses to questions from the Turkish Higher Education Entrance Physics Examination over the past three years. Analysis of the chatbots' responses to TYT Physics questions showed…

This article presents a step-by-step guide to using R and SPSS to bootstrap exam questions. Bootstrapping, a versatile nonparametric analytical technique, can help to improve the psychometric qualities of exam questions in the process of quality assurance. Bootstrapping is particularly useful in disciplines such as medical education, where student…

Despite the positive experiences of many candidates and the existence of many skilled examiners, the closed-door viva has been widely scrutinised on the basis of issues surrounding its reliability and quality. This study aimed to explore the views of examiners regarding this assessment method; specifically, in relation to how the issues with…

The current paper was targeted to validate the Self-Hate Scale (SHS; Turnell et al., 2019) for application within the Russian-speaking community, as it examined its validity and reliability within a sample of 302 participants. Subsequent to the translation procedures, a strong positive relationship between the English and the Russian versions was…

Research and policy reports estimate that 10%-40% of U.S. children and adolescents currently have or very recently have had at least one significant mental health condition. Students who exhibit substantial behavior and emotional problems in school often show less severe problems when younger. Screening for less severe problems at younger ages can…

Since the COVID-19 pandemic, the use of open-book examinations (OBE) in higher education has increased compared to closed-book examinations (CBE), raising questions about the relative efficacy of these two major examination formats. We review the effects of CBE and OBE on learning and examine potential moderating variables related to study,…

Assessment refers to a broad array of approaches for measuring or evaluating a person's (or group of persons') skills, behaviors, dispositions, or other attributes.
