Walter P. Vispoel; Hyeri Hong; Hyeryung Lee – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2024
Although generalizability theory (GT) designs typically are analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) procedures, they also can be integrated into structural equation models (SEMs). In this tutorial, we review basic concepts for conducting univariate and multivariate GT analyses and demonstrate advantages of doing such analyses within SEM…

Cutumisu, Maria; Adams, Catherine; Glanfield, Florence; Yuen, Connie; Lu, Chang – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2022
The growing interest of educational researchers in computational thinking (CT) has led to an expanding literature on assessments of CT skills and attitudes. However, few studies have examined whether CT attitudes influence CT skills. The present study examines the relationship between CT attitudes and CT skills for preservice teachers (PSTs). The…

Ferrando, Pere J.; Anguiano-Carrasco, Cristina; Demestre, Josep – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2013
This article proposes a model-based procedure, intended for personality measures, for exploiting the auxiliary information provided by the certainty with which individuals answer every item (response certainty). This information is used to (a) obtain more accurate estimates of individual trait levels, and (b) provide a more detailed assessment of…

Pan, Tianshu; Yin, Yue – Psychological Methods, 2012
In the discussion of mean square difference (MSD) and standard error of measurement (SEM), Barchard (2012) concluded that the MSD between 2 sets of test scores is greater than 2(SEM)[superscript 2] and SEM underestimates the score difference between 2 tests when the 2 tests are not parallel. This conclusion has limitations for 2 reasons. First,…

McGrath, Robert E.; Walters, Glenn D. – Psychological Methods, 2012
Statistical analyses investigating latent structure can be divided into those that estimate structural model parameters and those that detect the structural model type. The most basic distinction among structure types is between categorical (discrete) and dimensional (continuous) models. It is a common, and potentially misleading, practice to…

Battauz, Michela; Bellio, Ruggero – Psychometrika, 2011
This paper proposes a structural analysis for generalized linear models when some explanatory variables are measured with error and the measurement error variance is a function of the true variables. The focus is on latent variables investigated on the basis of questionnaires and estimated using item response theory models. Latent variable…

Lewandowsky, Stephan; Yang, Lee-Xieng; Newell, Ben R.; Kalish, Michael L. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2012
Working memory is crucial for many higher level cognitive functions, ranging from mental arithmetic to reasoning and problem solving. Likewise, the ability to learn and categorize novel concepts forms an indispensable part of human cognition. However, very little is known about the relationship between working memory and categorization. This…

Tolvanen, Asko; Kiuru, Noona; Leskinen, Esko; Hakkarainen, Kai; Inkinen, Mikko; Lonka, Kirsti; Salmela-Aro, Katariina – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2011
This study presents a new approach to estimation of a nonlinear growth curve component with fixed and random effects in multilevel modeling. This approach can be used to estimate change in longitudinal data, such as day-of-the-week fluctuation. The motivation of the new approach is to avoid spurious estimates in a random coefficient regression…

Tolar, Tammy Daun; Lederberg, Amy R.; Fletcher, Jack M. – Educational Psychology, 2009
The goal of this study was to develop and evaluate a structural model of the relations among cognitive abilities and arithmetic skills and college students' algebra achievement. The model of algebra achievement was compared to a model of performance on the Scholastic Assessment in Mathematics (SAT-M) to determine whether the pattern of relations…
