Allalouf, Avi; Gutentag, Tony; Baumer, Michal – Educational Measurement: Issues and Practice, 2017
Quality control (QC) in testing is paramount. QC procedures for tests can be divided into two types. The first type, one that has been well researched, is QC for tests administered to large population groups on few administration dates using a small set of test forms (e.g., large-scale assessment). The second type is QC for tests, usually…

McCloskey, George – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2017
This commentary will take an historical perspective on the Kaufman Test of Educational Achievement (KTEA) error analysis, discussing where it started, where it is today, and where it may be headed in the future. In addition, the commentary will compare and contrast the KTEA error analysis procedures that are rooted in psychometric methodology and…

Flanagan, Dawn P.; Mascolo, Jennifer T.; Alfonso, Vincent C. – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2017
Through the use of excerpts from one of our own case studies, this commentary applied concepts inherent in, but not limited to, the neuropsychological literature to the interpretation of performance on the Kaufman Tests of Educational Achievement-Third Edition (KTEA-3), particularly at the level of error analysis. The approach to KTEA-3 test…

Almoied, Ayed – ProQuest LLC, 2017
Classical statistical tests are used in many disciplines such as education and psychology. Such tests are based on certain assumptions (e.g., normality and homoscedasticity) that are must to be met in order to produce accurate results. Violation of such assumptions is a common problem researchers encounter, particularly when analyzing real data.…

de Koning, Björn B.; van de Schoot, Menno – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2019
Pronouns encouraging a second-person perspective (e.g., "you/your") affect peoples' mental representations constructed while reading and improve learning. The present study applied these insights to a domain in that such pronoun effects have yet been unexplored: mathematical word problem solving. Specifically, we encouraged a…

Gawrylowicz, Julie; Scoboria, Alan; Teodorini, Rachel; Albery, Ian P. – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2019
Few studies have examined the impact of alcohol on metacognition for witnessed events. We used a 2 × 2 balanced placebo design, where mock witnesses expected and drank alcohol, did not expect but drank alcohol, did not expect nor drank alcohol, or expected but did not drink alcohol. Participants watched a mock crime in a bar-lab, followed by free…

Bailey, Dallin J.; Bunker, Lisa; Mauszycki, Shannon; Wambaugh, Julie L. – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2019
Background: Acquired apraxia of speech (AOS) involves speech-production deficits on both the segmental and suprasegmental levels. Recent research has identified a non-linear interaction between the metrical structure of bisyllabic words and word-production accuracy in German speakers with AOS, with trochaic words (strong-weak stress) being…

Mock, Julia; Huber, Stefan; Cress, Ulrike; Nuerk, Hans-Christoph; Moeller, Korbinian – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2019
The metaphor of the mental number line accounts for numerous empirical effects of spatial-numerical associations. In the present study, we aimed at investigating directional spatial-numerical associations reflected by SNARC-like digit-direction and sign-direction congruency effects as well as the sign-digit compatibility effect when 6th graders…

Minkina, Irene; Silkes, JoAnn P.; Bislick, Lauren; Madden, Elizabeth Brookshire; Lai, Victoria; Pompon, Rebecca Hunting; Torrence, Janaki; Zimmerman, Reva M.; Kendall, Diane L. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2019
Purpose: An increasing number of anomia treatment studies have coupled traditional word retrieval accuracy outcome measures with more fine-grained analysis of word retrieval errors to allow for more comprehensive measurement of treatment-induced changes in word retrieval. The aim of this study was to examine changes in picture naming errors after…

Jewsbury, Paul A. – ETS Research Report Series, 2019
When an assessment undergoes changes to the administration or instrument, bridge studies are typically used to try to ensure comparability of scores before and after the change. Among the most common and powerful is the common population linking design, with the use of a linear transformation to link scores to the metric of the original…

Aljahlan, Yara; Spaulding, Tammie J. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2019
Purpose: This study investigated attentional shifting in preschool children with specific language impairment (SLI) compared to their typically developing peers. Children's attentional shifting capacity was assessed by varying attentional demands. Method: Twenty-five preschool children with SLI and 25 age-matched, typically developing controls…

Wong, Sarah Shi Hui; Lim, Stephen Wee Hun – Educational Psychologist, 2019
Errors are often perceived as undesirable events to be avoided at all costs. However, a growing body of research suggests that making errors is, in fact, beneficial for learning. Building on human resource development literature, the present review proposes a 3P framework of approaches to errors during learning: prevention (avoiding or observing…

Rahmanian, Sadaf; Kuperman, Victor – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2019
Spelling errors are typically thought of as an "effect" of a word's weak orthographic representation in an individual mind. What if existence of spelling errors is a partial "cause" of effortful orthographic learning and word recognition? We selected words that had homophonic substandard spelling variants of varying frequency…

Coskun, Sumeyra Dogan – Online Submission, 2019
The current study aims to examine meanings and error types associated with pre-service elementary teachers' semi-structured problems for the multiplication and division of fractions. A total of 83 junior pre-service elementary teachers were recruited in the spring semester of the 2016-2017 academic year. A researcher-developed Problem Posing Test…
