Feldt, Leonard S.; Kim, Seonghoon – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2006
Researchers sometimes need a statistical test of the hypothesis that two values of Cronbach's alpha reliability coefficient are equal. The situation may involve scores from two different measures administered to independent random samples or from the same measure administered to random samples from two different populations. Feldt derived a test…

Leithwood, Kenneth; Jantzi, Doris; McElheron-Hopkins, Charryn – School Effectiveness and School Improvement, 2006
This multimethod study generated and tested a "best evidence" model of school improvement processes (SIP) capable of improving student achievement. Initially developed through the review of a comprehensive body of previous empirical research, the model was further refined through a 2, 5-year longitudinal study in 10 schools. A quantitative test of…

Bong, Mimi – 1998
Two of the most widely used academic self-efficacy assessment techniques, problem-referenced measurement and the Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ) were compared. Participants were 383 high school students from 4 Los Angeles (California) schools. Multi-trait multi-method analyses revealed that the two techniques were not…

Describes the application of a multimethod research approach to obtain data on students at a small college. Emphasizes the value of the multimethod/multitrait research strategy, also referred to as triangulation, or convergent methodology, where two or more methods, often qualitative and quantitative, are integrated to study the same variables.…

Smith, Louis R.; Kleine, Paul F. – New Directions for Program Evaluation, 1986
Several conceptual issues in the theory of evaluation methodology are discussed and illustrated. Four objectives are to: (1) narrow the distinction between research and evaluation; (2) extend the scope of triangulation and multimethods; (3) approach the problem concretely with extended data and interpretations; (4) structure the discussion in…

Marsh, Herbert W.; And Others – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 1992
Results of a reanalysis of previously published data (B. M. Byrne, 1989) support the correlated uniqueness model, diagnostic tests of the validity of confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), multitrait multimethod (MTMM) solutions, inclusion of external validity in MTMM design, and application of factorial invariance to test stability of CFA-MTMM…

Patry, Jean-Luc – Quality of Higher Education, 2005
Quality assurance and evaluation research, like other fields of social research and its application, are confronted with a series of problems. In the present paper, I want first to give a list of such problems, although necessarily incomplete. It is then claimed that while there is no "perfect" solution to these problems, critical multiplism may…

Trimble, Susan B.; Peterson, Gary W. – 1998
The growth of educational teams in collaborative reform initiatives spurs a need for team assessments to assist in promoting functional team environments, productive team work, and member satisfaction. This study applied a multitrait-multimethod framework (D. Campbell and D. Fiske, 1959) to assess team functioning and team leadership. Four case…

Kulieke, Marilyn; And Others – 1990
Based on the assumption that changes in the educational experience require changes in the evaluation of student learning, this fourth guidebook in a series of nine video conferences on school restructuring presents information on the evolution of student assessment. Four shifts in educational assessment are identified: from testing to multiple…

Stein, Judith A.; And Others – 1987
There is widespread concern about the use and abuse of alcohol and other drugs by adolescents and young adults. It has yet to be determined whether drug use in itself is invariably associated with disruptive or problem use of drugs. Additionally, drug use may vary by frequency and quantity of ingestion which may be differentially related to…

Marsh, Herbert W. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1986
Items from two North American instruments, designed to measure students' evaluation of teaching effectiveness, were administered to university students in different countries. Most of the items were judged by the students to be appropriate and important. Statistical analysis showed strong support for both the convergent and divergent validity of…
