Ting Zhang; Paul Bailey; Yuqi Liao; Emmanuel Sikali – Large-scale Assessments in Education, 2024
The EdSurvey package helps users download, explore variables in, extract data from, and run analyses on large-scale assessment data. The analysis functions in EdSurvey account for the use of plausible values for test scores, survey sampling weights, and their associated variance estimator. We describe the capabilities of the package in the context…

Bulus, Metin; Dong, Nianbo – Journal of Experimental Education, 2021
Sample size determination in multilevel randomized trials (MRTs) and multilevel regression discontinuity designs (MRDDs) can be complicated due to multilevel structure, monetary restrictions, differing marginal costs per treatment and control units, and range restrictions in sample size at one or more levels. These issues have sparked a set of…

Yamashita, Takashi; Smith, Thomas J.; Cummins, Phyllis A. – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2021
In order to promote the use of increasingly available large-scale assessment data in education and expand the scope of analytic capabilities among applied researchers, this study provides step-by-step guidance, and practical examples of syntax and data analysis using Maples. Concise overview and key unique aspects of large-scale assessment data…

Møller, Jørgen; Skaaning, Svend-Erik – Sociological Methods & Research, 2021
The historical turn in social science has prompted scholars to engage with the work of historians on a large scale. Here, social scientists face two standard problems of selection bias: confirmation bias and convenience sampling. So far, the record of dealing with these problems has been poor, and little has been done to specify how social…

Growns, Bethany; Towler, Alice; Dunn, James D.; Salerno, Jessica M.; Schweitzer, N. J.; Dror, Itiel E. – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2022
Forensic science practitioners compare visual evidence samples (e.g. fingerprints) and decide if they originate from the same person or different people (i.e. fingerprint 'matching'). These tasks are perceptually and cognitively complex--even practising professionals can make errors--and what limited research exists suggests that existing…

Schneider, Daniel; Harknett, Kristen – Sociological Methods & Research, 2022
In this article, we explore the use of Facebook targeted advertisements for the collection of survey data. We illustrate the potential of survey sampling and recruitment on Facebook through the example of building a large employee--employer linked data set as part of The Shift Project. We describe the workflow process of targeting, creating, and…

Moschion, Julie; Polidano, Cain; Fischer, Daniel – National Centre for Vocational Education Research (NCVER), 2022
The aim of this analysis of data from the Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) Survey is to compare labour market outcomes between individuals who have Vocational Education and Training (VET) qualifications only, VET and Higher Education (HE) qualifications and HE qualifications only, but who work in the same occupations. In…

Maag Merki, Katharina; Grob, Urs; Rechsteiner, Beat; Rickenbacher, Ariane; Wullschleger, Andrea – Frontline Learning Research, 2022
Previous findings on the preconditions of teachers' collaboration are inconsistent. This might be related to the research methods used to assess the teachers' collaborative practice. Retrospective assessments by self-report on a relatively general level prevail. The validity of these self-reports is limited, however. In contrast, time-sampling…

Grant, David; Setodji, Claude Messan; Hunter, Gerald P.; Diliberti, Melissa Kay – RAND Corporation, 2022
The American School District Panel (ASDP) is the newest addition to the RAND Corporation's American Educator Panels (AEP), which are designed to survey educators several times each year. RAND recruits ASDP members using probabilistic sampling methods, which allow researchers to weight survey results to generalize to the national population of…

Smith, Jeffrey A.; Burow, Jessica – Sociological Methods & Research, 2020
Agent-based modeling holds great potential as an analytical tool. Agent-based models (ABMs) are, however, also vulnerable to critique, as they often employ stylized social worlds, with little connection to the actual environment in question. Given these concerns, there has been a recent call to more fully incorporate empirical data into ABMs. This…

Kelcey, Ben; Shen, Zuchao – Journal of Experimental Education, 2020
When well-implemented, mediation analyses play a critical role in probing theories of action because their results help lay the ground work for the critical development of a treatment and the iterative advancement of theories that are foundational to a discipline. Despite strong interest in designs that incorporate mediation, few studies have…

Kim, Hyung Jin; Brennan, Robert L.; Lee, Won-Chan – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2020
In equating, smoothing techniques are frequently used to diminish sampling error. There are typically two types of smoothing: presmoothing and postsmoothing. For polynomial log-linear presmoothing, an optimum smoothing degree can be determined statistically based on the Akaike information criterion or Chi-square difference criterion. For…

Lida Lin – ProQuest LLC, 2020
Participants in achievement tests or psychometric scales can be naturally divided into various sub-groups such as gender, race, social economic status, school district, etc. In order to make meaningful comparison between groups, each item in the test/scale should measure the same underlying construct for participants came from different groups.…
