Purpose: The present study aimed to validate the Indonesian-language version of the psychological capital questionnaire (PCQ), specifically within the context of higher education, by utilising Rasch analysis to evaluate the reliability and validity aspect such as item-fit statistics, rating scale function, and differential item functioning of the…

The Sexuality Knowledge Assessment Questionnaire (SEKAQ) was designed to assess sexuality-related knowledge among adolescents and future health and education professionals, particularly within the context of school-based health education initiatives. This study developed and validated the SEKAQ, an instrument aimed at evaluating critical aspects…

This study examined the psychometric quality of multiple-choice questions generated by two AI tools, ChatGPT and DeepSeek, within the context of an undergraduate Educational Measurement and Evaluation course. Guided by ten learning outcomes (LOs) aligned with Bloom's Taxonomy, each tool was prompted to generate one five-option multiple-choice item…

As technology tools, such as MyOpenMath, MyLab Math, RStudio, and Python become increasingly integrated into college-level mathematics instruction, it is essential to understand how students perceive and interact with these platforms. Many students struggle with confidence using computers and anxiety, which can hinder their ability to fully engage…

The primary aim of this study was to cross-validate the Revised Fit, Stigma, & Value (FSV) Scale, a questionnaire for measuring barriers to counseling, using a stratified random sample of adults in the United States. Researchers also investigated the percentage of adults living in the United States that had previously attended counseling and…

In this paper, we present the development and validation of a new measure of attitudinal learning--the Attitudinal Learning Inventory (ALI). While specific scales are available for measuring attitudes, they largely focus on established attitudes, not the impact of instruction on those attitudes. We developed the inventory with two explicit…

Objective Structured Teaching Exercises (OSTEs) are used to evaluate feedback skills. OSTEs are simulated teaching scenarios using standardized learners and trained facilitators to deliver immediate feedback to participants. As per researchers' limited knowledge, there is no published assessment tool to assess the feedback skills using OSTE in…

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the psychometric properties of the Career Adapt-Abilities Scale (CAAS-Arabic form) and investigates the relationship between Emirati students' employability skills and their career adaptability in the workplace, against the backdrop of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (IR 4.0).…

Measuring cognitive load is important in virtual learning environments (VLE). Thus, valid and reliable measures of cognitive load are important to support instructional design in VLE. Through three studies, we investigated the validity and reliability of Leppink's Cognitive Load Scale (CLS) and developed the extraneous cognitive load (EL)…

Nationally published research suggests middle and high school educators are often experts within their respective disciplines, but they may be unprepared to effectively consider literacy needs and ways to incorporate literacy within their discipline. To better understand teachers' perceived capabilities in their ability to teach and incorporate…

We report on the construction and validation of the Young Children's Math Anxiety Scale (YCMAX), a developmentally appropriate measure of math anxiety intended for kindergarten students. We administered the YCMAX to a sample of public school kindergarteners (N = 355) and conducted factor analyses to examine its structure. A two-factor solution…

In this article, we reviewed how intelligence tests were developed and normed, with a careful eye to underserved groups. Based on state recommendations, five group-administered and five individually-administered tests were reviewed for demographics; invariance testing; validity and reliability reporting; and gifted identification suitability. We…

The Online Interaction Learning Model was founded on constructivist learning theory. It is an input-process-output model based on moderating variables, the inputs, which includes all of the characteristics of the courses, the instructors, EFL learners, and the technology. Due to the fact that the studies considering the pivotal role of the Online…

Evolutionary trees are central to learning about evolutionary processes, yet students at all educational levels struggle to read and interpret them. The synthetic tree-reading model (STREAM), based on published and not yet empirically tested models, was tested to determine whether the assumed hierarchy of the model could be substantiated and how…

Medical education has gone online because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Formative assessment is essential to facilitate the learning process in medical education. However, various challenges arise during online assessment, which include reliability, when done without monitoring and practical concerns like Internet connectivity issues. This study was…
