Background/purpose: Phubbing has emerged as a psychological and behavioral concern that threatens the quality of interpersonal relationships and psychological well-being, particularly among adolescents and adults, so the current research aimed to investigate the psychometric properties of the Arabic version of the Generic Scale of Phubbing…

In an era of rapid technological advancement, educational models must evolve to meet the ever-changing needs of students. Primary school students, being digital natives, require innovative learning approaches that integrate technology and promote essential skills, such as critical thinking. This study aimed to develop a Ubiquitous Project-based…

This paper looks at how process-based spatial ability and attention measures taken within a high-stakes battery used to select pilots in the US Navy compare to lab-based measures of the same constructs. Process-based measures typically function by having individuals perform either a novel task or perform a task with novel stimuli. However,…

Computational thinking (CT) is a thinking skill developed and integrated into curricula worldwide in recent years. However, limited assessment is one of the challenges in integrating CT skills into the educational curriculum of developing countries such as Indonesia. This study aimed to develop and validate a CT assessment instrument tailored for…

Prompts play a crucial role in eliciting accurate outputs from large language models (LLMs). This study examines the effectiveness of an automatic prompt engineering (APE) framework for automatic scoring in educational measurement. We collected constructed-response data from 930 students across 11 items and used human scores as the true labels. A…

Turkish-Sign-Language (TSL) is a natural visuospatial language that the Deaf and hard of hearing use to communicate both with each other and with hearing people. It is important to determine the self-efficacy of individuals learning TSL in order to enhance their effective use of the TSL when their learning process. In this study, we aimed to…

The primary objectives of this study were to translate and assess the psychometric properties of the Principal Instructional Leadership Scale (PILS) within an Iranian population. The translation and cross-cultural adaptation process involved five stages: forward translation, translation synthesis, backward translation, expert committee review, and…

The aim of this study was to cross-culturally adapt and validate of the Brazilian Portuguese version of the Quality of Life in Autism Questionnaire (QoLA) among parents of children ASD. The translated version was administered to 91 parents (Male: 4, Female: 85, other: 2) of individuals diagnosed with ASD. Among these, 22 completed the…

The growing integration of service-learning into academic content reflects higher education institutions' efforts to provide an environment that strengthens teaching, learning, and service to the community. This research article documents the development and testing of an instrument that measures service-learning experiences among higher education…

Purpose: Developmental assessment is part of a comprehensive autism evaluation. During in-person evaluations, developmental assessment is completed via direct testing by an examiner. In telehealth evaluations, developmental assessment relies on caregiver-report instruments. This study examined correspondence between caregiver report and direct…

The aim of this study is to find evidence of factorial validity, measure equivalence by gender, and internal consistency of the Mental Health Continuum-Short Form (MHC-SF) in a sample of Ecuadorian teenagers. The study uses a psychometric design to explore the validity and reliability of the measure. Participants of the study were 1154 teenagers…

There is a growing consensus in research that children's numerical competence starts to develop at a very early age. However, there are few tools for screening the development of early numerical competence and thereby making this development researchable. One obstacle in designing such tools is that verbal utterances cannot be used as the primary…

The literature suggests that the co-creation of higher education value, from the perspective of the service-dominant logic (SDL), begins in the teaching-learning process, and the results of this process shape the entire ecosystem of higher education value for economic and social development. From this perspective, it is important to identify…

Racially and ethnically diverse populations from minoritized backgrounds are often exposed to research methodologies that amplify structural racism and negate their sociocultural reality. Although cross-cultural validation of measures is considered a requisite step to multigroup comparisons, researchers apply measures validated and standardized in…

In this note we demonstrate two instances where matrix multiplication can be easily verified. In the first setting, the matrix product appears as matrix element concatenation, and in the second, the product coincides with matrix addition. General proofs for some results are provided with a more complete description for 2×2 matrices. Suggested for…
