As online learning continues to rise, students find educational value in consistency of instruction and technological support. With the significant increase in faculty designing courses, success lies with faculty education in instructional design. Additionally, students need support to navigate through the LMS and course elements to achieve…

This study aimed to develop and validate two parallel scales to measure the psychological L2 speaking and listening needs of 863 English-as-a-foreign language (EFL) learners. The associations between three psychological needs (i.e., autonomy, competence, and relatedness) of L2 speaking and of L2 listening were examined to develop insights into…

Objective: This paper presents a theory-based brief resilience scale, the Resilience Resources Scale (RRS), and evidence for its factor structure, reliability, and validity in two studies of undergraduate students. Participants: Study 1 sampled 295 students and Study 2 sampled 244 students. Methods: Study 1 participants completed the RRS and other…

During this COVID-19 pandemic, the community, especially students, experienced anxiety due to the uncertainty that occurred. To cover it up, self-handicapping is the most common option. People in the eastern culture, such as Indonesia, prefer to achieve social achievement (SAch) goals than academic achievement (AAch) goals in motivation. This…

The aim of this study is to adapt the Crick Learning for Resilient Agency (CLARA) to Turkish culture, and to examine the psychometric features of the Inventory according to both Classical Test Theory (CTT) and Item Response Theory (IRT). In this respect, it is a descriptive level survey design research. Two different study groups were formed in…

Teacher quality, along with the school context, classroom practice, and student mathematics achievement, are the key components in Clarke and Hollingsworth's (2002) model that depicts teachers' professional growth as an ongoing, dynamic, and interactive enterprise. Comfort and preparedness are dispositions that, along with teacher knowledge, are…

Instructional design (ID) models have been developed to promote understandings of ID reality and guide ID performance. As the number and diversity of ID practices grows, implicit doubts regarding the reliability, validity, and usefulness of ID models suggest the need for methodological guidance that would help to generate ID models that are…

This study aimed to investigate the item "Response Time Fidelity scores" ("RTFs"), "KuderRichardson Reliability" ("KR[subscript 20]") and "Cronbach's Alpha Reliability" ("alpha") coefficients, calculate "KR[subscript 20]" coefficients with "RTFs" for 30 threshold…

A conceptual framework for empirical research on the impact of NASA Space Science Education Consortium (NSSEC) activities is presented in this paper, along with a cross-referencing system between the NSF-based NSSEC evaluation framework and historical definitions of comparable psychometric constructs in the literature. A selected set of findings…

The adoption of Information and Communication Technology in Tanzanian higher education institutions has led to the implementation of different but equivalent Academic Information Systems to support the management of different activities of students. However, these systems are not well used to support decision-making in those institutions. This…

Objectives: Despite advances in understanding associations among attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), emotion dysregulation (ED), and related outcomes, there is incongruity between ADHD-relevant conceptualizations of ED and available measures of ED. To assess the psychometric properties of a parent-report questionnaire of ED…

This study aims to develop a measurement tool that will enable the determination of school administrators' and teachers' opinions on educational technologies. The items prepared by scanning the literature were presented to the opinions of the experts. Following the opinions, the 51-item trial form was applied to a total of 406 administrators and…

In response to concerns about using only standardized multiple-choice assessments, some school districts have moved to using alternative ratings of student achievement with authentic assessments. However, such assessments are often limited in terms of the psychometric validity data supporting their use. The present study mixed quantitative and…

Student evaluations of teaching (SET) have been the principal instrument to elicit students' opinions in higher education institutions. Many decisions, including high-stake ones, are made based on SET scores reported by students. In this respect, reliability of SET scores is of considerable importance. This paper has an argument that there are…

Researchers analyzed data from elementary teachers (N = 233) to further establish the psychometric soundness of the Teacher My Class Inventory-Short Form. Supporting previous psychometric research, confirmatory factor analyses findings supported the factorial validity of the hypothesized five-factor solution. Internal reliability estimates were…
