With an increasing number of U.S. states implementing multi-tiered systems of reading support in schools, educators require validated screening measures to identify students at risk for reading difficulties and inform reading instructional practices. This study evaluates the utility and validity of a new measure developed as part of the Dynamic…

Complex competences, such as managing students' aggressive behaviour, are challenging to develop during teacher training. Recently, video-based simulations have been considered promising, yet suitable assessment instruments are limitedly available. This paper reports on the design and evaluation of a video-based assessment tool tailored to measure…

The acceptance of artificial intelligence (AI) in academic settings, particularly in the context of research creativity, is a growing area of interest. This study aimed to design and validate the AI Acceptance and Research Creativity Scale (AIA&RCS) among faculty members. This exploratory mixed-method was conducted among 720 faculty members. A…

In contrast to traditional views of instructional design that are often focused on content development, researchers are increasingly exploring learning experience design (LXD) perspectives as a way to espouse a broader and more holistic view of learning. In addition to cognitive and affective perspectives, LXD includes perspectives on…

Across the world, standards and practices for preparing teachers of mathematics emphasize the importance of math modeling (MM) in developing students' mathematical thinking. The aim of this research study was to develop the Mathematical Modeling Knowledge Scale (MAMKS), capable of determining preservice teachers' (PSTs') knowledge of MM. The study…

Although there exists an extensive amount of research on subscores and their properties, limited research has been conducted on categorical subscores and their interpretations. In this paper, we focus on the claim of Feinberg and von Davier that categorical subscores are useful for remediation and instructional purposes. We investigate this claim…

Autistic people are more likely to have co-occurring mental health conditions compared to the general population, and mental health interventions have been identified as a top research priority by autistic people and the wider autism community. Autistic adults have also communicated that quality of life is the outcome that matters most to them in…

This paper reports on the process of developing an original framework for conceptualising and measuring language learner well-being within the context of heritage language (HL) learning. Drawing on a quantitative validation study with 545 young Chinese heritage language (CHL) learners, aged 7-18, in the UK, this paper presents an empirically…

Growth-to-standard models evaluate student growth against the growth needed to reach a future standard or target of interest, such as proficiency. A common growth-to-standard model involves comparing the popular Student Growth Percentile (SGP) to Adequate Growth Percentiles (AGPs). AGPs follow from an involved process based on fitting a series of…

The Determinants of Implementation Behavior Questionnaire for school settings (DIBQ-S) was administered to examine questionnaire internal structure evidence and ascertain 127 Swedish school staff's perceived barriers to and facilitators of implementing the Inclusive Behavioral Support in Schools program. Using confirmatory factor analysis, we…

Background: Pragmatic communication difficulties encompass many distinct behaviours, including the use of vague and/or insufficient language, a common characteristic following traumatic brain injury (TBI) that negatively impacts psychosocial outcomes. Existing assessments evaluate pragmatic communication broadly, often with only one or two items…

Several observation tools evaluate teaching quality in Physical Education (PE), but none of them cover the core competencies required to comprehensively assess whether the teacher is providing teaching quality in PE. The aim of this research is to develop, validate, and test the reliability of the System for Observing Teaching Competencies in…

Purpose: This study examined changes in common content knowledge (CCK) among preservice teachers in tennis and volleyball over time from entry to completion of physical education teacher education (PETE) programs in a convenient sample in the United States. Method: Six PETE programs for tennis and five for volleyball were the sites of the study.…

This study presents a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of the Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment (JPA) over a 15-year period from January 2010 to April 2025. Using data from Web of Science, we analyze publication trends, collaboration patterns, citation impact, and thematic evolution within the field of psychoeducational assessment. The…

Background: This study was conducted to translate The Montreal Children's Hospital Feeding Scale (MCH-FS) into Turkish and to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Turkish version (T-MCH-FS) in children with cerebral palsy (CP). Method: The study involved 160 children (70 children with CP and 90 typically developing children) aged 18 to 72…
