Hosek, James; Knapp, David; Mattock, Michael G.; Asch, Beth J. – Educational Researcher, 2023
Retirement incentives are frequently used by school districts facing financial difficulties. They provide a means of either decreasing staff size or replacing retiring senior teachers with less expensive junior teachers. We analyze a one-time retirement incentive in a large school district paid to teachers willing to retire at the end of the…

Anil, Özgür; Batdi, Veli – Education and Information Technologies, 2023
The present research is an examination of Augmented Reality (AR) applications in Science Education using the Multi-complementary Approach (McA). This incorporates multiple analyses: i) Pre-complementary: meta-analysis and meta-thematic analysis, ii) Post-complementary: an experimental design with a pre- and post-test control group and iii)…

Sinharay, Sandip – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2023
Technical difficulties and other unforeseen events occasionally lead to incomplete data on educational tests, which necessitates the reporting of imputed scores to some examinees. While there exist several approaches for reporting imputed scores, there is a lack of any guidance on the reporting of the uncertainty of imputed scores. In this paper,…

Zhai, Xue-Song; Chu, Xiao-Yan; Chen, Min; Shen, Jun; Lou, Feng-Lang – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2023
Education equity has become a critical sustainable development goal worldwide, and it has aroused significant concern among educators. While virtual teaching communities have emerged as an approach to minimizing educational inequity through resource sharing and information exchange, the achievement of deep collaboration among individuals remains…

Laura Jane Kelly; Sangeet Khemlani – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
Descriptions of durational relations can be ambiguous, for example, the description "one meeting happened during another" could mean that one meeting started before the other ended, or it could mean that the meetings started and ended simultaneously. A recent theory posits that people mentally simulate descriptions of durational events…

Gaufman, Elizaveta; Abel, Niklas; Andela, Esther; Adema, Carolien; Kok, Imke; Schuitemaker, Marieke; Klok, Meike; Turkstra, Frieso; Bey, Johannes K.; Oltmann, Zoe Perea – Journal of Political Science Education, 2023
Simulations have become a staple of political science education due to their effectiveness and creative nature that contributes to learning success. In this contribution, we argue that simulations can also offer new insights not only into student engagement and active learning, but also into the sociology of political processes. In this case it is…

Beth Chance; Karen McGaughey; Sophia Chung; Alex Goodman; Soma Roy; Nathan Tintle – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2025
"Simulation-based inference" is often considered a pedagogical strategy for helping students develop inferential reasoning, for example, giving them a visual and concrete reference for deciding whether the observed statistic is unlikely to happen by chance alone when the null hypothesis is true. In this article, we highlight for teachers…

Milica Miocevic; Fayette Klaassen; Mariola Moeyaert; Gemma G. M. Geuke – Journal of Experimental Education, 2025
Mediation analysis in Single Case Experimental Designs (SCEDs) evaluates intervention mechanisms for individuals. Despite recent methodological developments, no clear guidelines exist for maximizing power to detect the indirect effect in SCEDs. This study compares frequentist and Bayesian methods, determining (1) minimum required sample size to…

Julia-Kim Walther; Martin Hecht; Steffen Zitzmann – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2025
Small sample sizes pose a severe threat to convergence and accuracy of between-group level parameter estimates in multilevel structural equation modeling (SEM). However, in certain situations, such as pilot studies or when populations are inherently small, increasing samples sizes is not feasible. As a remedy, we propose a two-stage regularized…

Sohee Kim; Ki Lynn Cole – International Journal of Testing, 2025
This study conducted a comprehensive comparison of Item Response Theory (IRT) linking methods applied to a bifactor model, examining their performance on both multiple choice (MC) and mixed format tests within the common item nonequivalent group design framework. Four distinct multidimensional IRT linking approaches were explored, consisting of…

Shih-Yeh Chen; Ying-Hsun Lai; Pei-Hsuan Lin; Yu-Sheng Su – Educational Technology & Society, 2025
There is an increasing international focus on multi-user virtual reality (VR) training for all emergency medical technicians within the framework of their respective disaster medical preparedness initiatives. While multiuser VR is often deployed in a variety of digital educational settings, it has not been meaningfully explored in emergency…

Yu-Ju Lan; Kai-Yu Tang – Educational Technology & Society, 2025
Research into the use of virtual reality (VR) for educational purposes is increasing, but most of the existing literature focuses on the positive effects of VR on users, with its possible negative effects remaining underexplored. An inadequate understanding of the negative effects can put users at risk. To address this research gap, the main…

Sahar Bader; Ibrahim Abotaleb; Ossama Hosny – Journal of Civil Engineering Education, 2025
Virtual reality (VR) training programs have seen substantial growth due to their ability to improve trainee learning outcomes. Despite this, there is a noticeable gap in the availability of conceptual frameworks that incorporate social learning theories as a basis for creating VR-based safety training programs. This research aims to address this…

Sofia Seinfeld; Filippo Gabriele Prattico; Chiara De Giorgi; Fabrizio Lamberti – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2024
Swapping visual perspective in virtual reality (VR) provides a unique means for embodying different virtual bodies and for self-distancing. Moreover, this technology is a powerful tool for experiential learning and for simulating realistic scenarios, with broad potential in the training of soft skills. However, there is scarce knowledge on how…

Dexin Shi; Bo Zhang; Ren Liu; Zhehan Jiang – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2024
Multiple imputation (MI) is one of the recommended techniques for handling missing data in ordinal factor analysis models. However, methods for computing MI-based fit indices under ordinal factor analysis models have yet to be developed. In this short note, we introduced the methods of using the standardized root mean squared residual (SRMR) and…
