Annie Grey Helms – ProQuest LLC, 2023
This dissertation analyzes the production and perception of lexical stress in trilinguals' first, second, and third languages (L1, L2, and L3) to evaluate how the cue-weighting transfer hypothesis applies to L3 acquisition. According to this hypothesis, acoustic cues to stress have different weights across languages, and results from both…

Raykov, Tenko; Marcoulides, George A.; Li, Tenglong – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2016
A method for evaluating the validity of multicomponent measurement instruments in heterogeneous populations is discussed. The procedure can be used for point and interval estimation of criterion validity of linear composites in populations representing mixtures of an unknown number of latent classes. The approach permits also the evaluation of…

Newton, Paul E. – Practical Assessment, Research & Evaluation, 2016
This paper argues that the dominant framework for conceptualizing validation evidence and analysis--the "five sources" framework from the 1999 "Standards"--is seriously limited. Its limitation raises a significant barrier to understanding the nature of comprehensive validation, and this presents a significant threat to…

Jimenez, Fernando; Paoletti, Alessia; Sanchez, Gracia; Sciavicco, Guido – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2019
In the European academic systems, the public funding to single universities depends on many factors, which are periodically evaluated. One of such factors is the rate of success, that is, the rate of students that do complete their course of study. At many levels, therefore, there is an increasing interest in being able to predict the risk that a…
