Hulstijn, Jan H.; Young, Richard F.; Ortega, Lourdes; Bigelow, Martha; DeKeyser, Robert; Ellis, Nick C.; Lantolf, James P.; Mackey, Alison; Talmy, Steven – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2014
For some, research in learning and teaching of a second language (L2) runs the risk of disintegrating into irreconcilable approaches to L2 learning and use. On the one side, we find researchers investigating linguistic-cognitive issues, often using quantitative research methods including inferential statistics; on the other side, we find…

Peer reviewedShadish, William R., Ed.; And Others – Evaluation and Program Planning, 1995
The five articles of this special section focus on the quantitative-qualitative debate in program evaluation. This section focuses on philosophical aspects of program evaluation, making it clear that the issues are far more complex than the simple quantitative-qualitative dichotomy described by T. S. Kuhn (1970) implies. (SLD)

Peer reviewedBrennan, Robert L.; And Others – Applied Psychological Measurement, 1988
Seven papers on technical and practical issues in equating are presented. Problems related to the use of conventional and item response theory equating methods, using pre- and post-smoothing to increase equipercentile equating's precision, and linear equating models for common-item nonequivalent-population design are discussed. (SLD)

von Davier, Alina A., Ed.; Liu, Mei, Ed. – ETS Research Report Series, 2006
This report builds on and extends existent research on population invariance to new tests and issues. The authors lay the foundation for a deeper understanding of the use of population invariance measures in a wide variety of practical contexts. The invariance of linear, equipercentile and IRT equating methods are examined using data from five…
