Erica C. Fry; Jessica R. Toste; Beth R. Feuer; Christine A. Espin – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2024
Data-based decision-making (DBDM) using curriculum-based measurement (CBM) data has demonstrated effectiveness in improving academic achievement for students with or at risk for learning disability. Despite substantial evidence supporting DBDM, its use is not common practice for many educators, even those who regularly collect CBM data. One…

Sijia Huang; Li Cai – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2024
The cross-classified data structure is ubiquitous in education, psychology, and health outcome sciences. In these areas, assessment instruments that are made up of multiple items are frequently used to measure latent constructs. The presence of both the cross-classified structure and multivariate categorical outcomes leads to the so-called…

Navé Wald; Tony Harland; Chandima Daskon – European Journal of Higher Education, 2024
This paper examines how higher education researchers approach writing the rationale and justification for their work published in journal articles. A common way for establishing this justification is through claiming a gap, but the problem is that it is often hard to find a research gap, and if it is included, there is too often no explanation for…

Jonas Videbaek Jørgensen – Evidence & Policy: A Journal of Research, Debate and Practice, 2024
Background: Understanding knowledge utilisation in policymaking is a core task for the social and political sciences. However, limitations and biases abound in commonplace approaches to measuring such use. Consequently, we have little systematic evidence of the extent to which knowledge sources are used in policy decisions. Aims and objectives:…

Laura Smithers – Change: The Magazine of Higher Learning, 2024
Speculative reform jumps the gun on notions of data-driven reform, requiring administrators to anticipate and act to ensure problems (and the data that would show them) do not materialize. Speculative reforms are incapable of delivering the outcomes they promise, as they are fueled by a fear of the future that their reforms do not extinguish. In…
