The Academic Resilience Scale (ARS) was developed to measure resilience factors in educational contexts. However, there is no clarity on whether the scale could be used as a measure of unidimensional academic resilience scores or just to obtain multidimensional academic resilience factors. How a scale is scored can affect the validity of…

Introduction: The Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ) is one of the most worldwide employed scales to assess self-regulated learning and its factor structure is a topic of debate nowadays. In this paper the internal structure of the instrument is analyzed on university students of Argentina and Uruguay. The aim was to extract a…

As education is remodelled to online solutions, instructors and students are required to adapt their teaching and learning through different forms of monitoring, regulation and assessment. This remodelling requires conceptual and philosophical reflection relating to stakeholder roles and the relationship between learners and teaching materials…

This study aims to examine e-learning experiences of the learners by using learner system interaction metrics. In this context, an e-learning environment has been structured within the scope of a course. Learners interacted with learning activities and leave various traces when they interact with others, contents, and assessment tasks. Log data…

A critical question in the study of language development is to understand lexical and syntactic acquisition, which play different roles in speech to the extent it would be natural to surmise they are acquired differently. As measured through the comprehension and production of closed-class words, syntactic ability emerges at roughly the 400-word…

Background: There are long-held concerns about how graduate research programs prepare engineering PhD students for professional practice. Suitable instruments are lacking to effectively assess how research experiences contribute to the success of graduate students becoming professionals. Purpose: The purpose of this work is to examine evidence of…

This study aims to validate a Korean version of the Brief Version of the Child Abuse Potential Inventory (BCAP-K) for use with childcare providers in South Korea. By employing a stratified sampling method, 808 childcare providers in charge of infants' classes were selected for participation. Participants completed a questionnaire that included…

This research aims to develop a set of scales that will allow the measurement of historical thinking skills of secondary school students. Expert opinion was used for the content and face validity of the scale, Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) were used for the construct validity. A total of 817 students…

Health self-efficacy (HS), defined as the belief of being able to take actions necessary to be healthy, is crucial for improving individuals' health-related behaviors. That is why there is a need for a valid and reliable scale to measure people's level of HS. This study aims to develop a scale that enables the measurement of HS of individuals.…

The current study sought to evaluate the SASTSc in two samples of students taking a statistics course that incorporates statistical software. The SASTSc was given at two time points, once at the beginning of the semester and then again at the end of the semester. Our evaluation included examining competing factor analytic models, examining…

The field of studies in metacognition points to some limitations in the way the construct has traditionally been measured and shows a near absence of performance-based tests. The Meta-Text is a performance-based test recently created to assess components of cognition regulation: planning, monitoring, and judgment. This study presents the first…

Determining students' perceptions of problem-solving is an important step to improve their mathematical problem-solving skills. For this reason, the aim of this study was to develop a scale to determine secondary school students' perceptions of mathematical problem solving. In the study conducted in a basic research model, a scale application, one…

Over the last number of years, there has been an increased move towards attending to the social and emotional wellbeing of students in Irish post-primary schools. Several studies have indicated that educators' positive attitudes toward health and wellbeing education are crucial to achieving whole-school implementation in terms of the promotion of…

We examined the replicability of the 61-item EcoWellness Inventory (EI-61; Reese et al., 2015) and the factor structure of a brief form (i.e., EI-15). The EI-15 demonstrated excellent model fit and initial convergent validity evidence. The inventory serves as a potentially useful tool for assessing ecowellness in professional counseling practice…

We investigated the reliability and construct validity of the Professionals' Perceptions about Collaborative Consultation in Early Childhood Intervention Scale (ProPerCECIS), a rating scale developed to measure collaborative consultation in early childhood intervention (ECI). ProPerCECIS was completed by 427 professionals from 78 ECI teams. The…
