Direct linkSideridis, Georgios; Tsaousis, Ioannis; Ghamdi, Hanan – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2023
The purpose of the present study was to provide the means to evaluate the "interval-scaling" assumption that governs the use of parametric statistics and continuous data estimators in self-report instruments that utilize Likert-type scaling. Using simulated and real data, the methodology to test for this important assumption is evaluated…

The procedures of carrying out factorial invariance to validate a construct were well developed to ensure the reliability of the construct that can be used across groups for comparison and analysis, yet mainly restricted to the frequentist approach. This motivates an update to incorporate the growing Bayesian approach for carrying out the Bayesian…

Guler, Gul; Cikrikci, Rahime Nukhet – International Journal of Assessment Tools in Education, 2022
The purpose of this study was to investigate the Type I Error findings and power rates of the methods used to determine dimensionality in unidimensional and bidimensional psychological constructs for various conditions (characteristic of the distribution, sample size, length of the test, and interdimensional correlation) and to examine the joint…

R. Freed; D. H. McKinnon; M. T. Fitzgerald; S. Salimpour – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2023
This paper presents the results of a confirmatory factor analysis on two self-efficacy scales designed to probe the self-efficacy of college-level introductory astronomy (Astro-101) students (n ΒΌ 15181) from 22 institutions across the United States of America and Canada. The students undertook a course based on similar curriculum materials, which…

Kanaki, Kalliopi; Kalogiannakis, Michail – Educational Process: International Journal, 2022
Background/purpose: In terms of computational thinking core facets, algorithmic thinking is a key competency applicable not only in Computer Science but also in aspects of daily life. Considering the global phenomenon of gender stereotypes with regards to the academic and professional orientation in STEM fields, we focused on investigating the…

de Ruiter, Laura E.; Bers, Marina U. – Computer Science Education, 2022
Background and Context: Despite the increasing implementation of coding in early curricula, there are few valid and reliable assessments of coding abilities for young children. This impedes studying learning outcomes and the development and evaluation of curricula. Objective: Developing and validating a new instrument for assessing young…

Tajeddin, Zia; Khatib, Mohammad; Mahdavi, Mohsen – Language Testing, 2022
Critical language assessment (CLA) has been addressed in numerous studies. However, the majority of the studies have overlooked the need for a practical framework to measure the CLA dimension of teachers' language assessment literacy (LAL). This gap prompted us to develop and validate a critical language assessment literacy (CLAL) scale to further…
