We propose new ways of robustifying goodness-of-fit tests for structural equation modeling under non-normality. These test statistics have limit distributions characterized by eigenvalues whose estimates are highly unstable and biased in known directions. To take this into account, we design model-based trend predictions to approximate the…

Evidence of positive associations between the frequency of home math activities and preschool children's math skills is mixed, and the operationalization of home math activities varies across studies. We test whether home math activities can be grouped by activity factors based on the math subdomain they target (i.e., counting and cardinality,…

Many education policy strategy documents at the European Union level, as well as national strategies of various countries, recommend including computational thinking as a fundamental skill in curricula. The professional development of teachers should be supported to disseminate computational thinking in K12 education. Teachers' value beliefs about…
