Hollylynne S. Lee; Hamid Sanei; Lisa Famularo; Jessica Masters; Laine Bradshaw; Madeline Schellman – Grantee Submission, 2023
Assessing students' conceptions related to independence of events and determining probabilities from a sample space has been the focus of research in probability education for over 40 years. While we know a lot from past studies about predictable ways students may reason with well-known tasks, developing a diagnostic assessment that can be used by…

Clifford, Jantina; Chen, Ching-I.; Xie, Huichao; Chen, Chieh-Yu; Murphy, Kimberly; Ascetta, Kate; Frantz, Rebecca; Hansen, Sarah – Infants and Young Children, 2018
Although many children live in healthy, supportive environments, far too many are exposed to or experience biological and/or psychosocial risk factors (e.g., infectious diseases, maternal depression). To evaluate the effectiveness of early childhood programs that are established to support these vulnerable children, funding agencies and…

Kim, Misol; Reid, Alan; Rickinson, Mark – Environmental Education Research, 2022
Locus of Control (LOC) is a general term used in social and educational psychology to refer to the perceived source of control for behavioural outcomes. Since the 1980s, various instruments have been developed to measure this construct in relation to pro-environmental behaviours and action. In this article, we revisit the value of this construct…

Background: Picture-naming tests (PNTs) evaluate linguistic impairment in dementia due to semantic memory impairment, impaired lexical retrieval or perceptual deficits. They also assess the decline in naming impairment at various stages of dementia and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) that occurs due to progressive cognitive impairment. With the…

Teimouri, Yasser; Papi, Mostafa; Tahmouresi, Somayeh – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2022
In two studies, we examined two functional dimensions of L2 learners' self-regulation toward their motivational goals: assessment and locomotion. The assessment constitutes the aspect of self-regulation concerned with critically evaluating the relative quality of L2 states and goals and the means to achieve them. The locomotion mode constitutes…

Maïano, Christophe; Morin, Alexandre J. S.; April, Johanne; Webster, E. Kipling; Hue, Olivier; Dugas, Claude; Ulrich, Dale – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2022
The objective was to assess the psychometric properties of a French-Canadian version of the third edition of the Test of Gross Motor Development (TGMD-3). Participants were 127 French-speaking Canadian children. Results supported the validity-reliability of a bifactor exploratory structural equation modeling representation of the TGMD-3.…

Gliksman, Yarden; Berebbi, Shir; Hershman, Ronen; Henik, Avishai – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2022
Math fluency (MF) is the ability to quickly and accurately solve simple math exercises. Proficiency in MF is one of the buildings of arithmetic achievement during school. However, so far only paper and pencil tests have been used to assess MF. In the current study, we present the BGU-MF (Ben-Gurion University Math Fluency) test, a new computerized…

Dictation is a traditional technique for both teaching and testing overall language ability and listening comprehension. In a dictation, a passage is read aloud by the teacher and examinees write down what they hear. Due to the peculiar form of dictations, psychometric analysis of dictations is challenging. In a dictation, there is no clear…

Jahanifar, Mojtaba – School Science and Mathematics, 2022
The academic self-concept (ASC) is a domain-specific construct, which plays an influential role in academic motivation and choices. Although some ASC models and instruments have been developed for mathematics and science, none have been specifically designed to measure the physics ASC. Therefore, this study focuses on designing and validating a…

Lambie, Glenn W.; Tabet, Saundra M.; Stickl Haugen, Jaimie – Teacher Development, 2022
In response to the absence of an instrument to measure educator inspiration with evidence of validity and reliability, the authors developed the "Educator Inspire Scale" (EIS), an assessment designed to assess the construct of inspiration in educators. Therefore, their investigation examined the psychometric properties of the EIS scores…

Vogiatzi, Christina-Aimilia; Charitaki, Garyfalia; Kourkoutas, Elias; Forlin, Chris – Prospects, 2022
The literature contains cases of validation of the TEIP scale in many countries but none in Greece. Consequently, there is a clear need to ensure that teacher self-efficacy in Greece is explored with a reliable and valid measure. This article provides a detailed review of the psychometric properties of the TEIP and its use with teachers in the…

Gladh, Maria; Allodi, Mara Westling; Siljehag, Eva; Odom, Samuel L. – European Journal of Special Needs Education, 2022
Teachers of inclusive early childhood education (ECE) are responsible for monitoring children's social skills achievement, and promoting social play between children with and without special educational needs (SEN). The Teacher Impression Scale (TIS) is an observational assessment developed for this purpose. This study aims to explore the social…
