Abbasnasab Sardareh, Sedigheh; Brown, Gavin T. L.; Denny, Paul – Teaching Statistics: An International Journal for Teachers, 2021
Research students in social science disciplines frequently struggle to master statistical analysis. A contributing factor may be the statistical software that is used, as the design of such software may not address the needs of non-statisticians or non-computer programming students. Hence, decisions about which statistical software tools are most…

McCoach, D. Betsy; Rifenbark, Graham G.; Newton, Sarah D.; Li, Xiaoran; Kooken, Janice; Yomtov, Dani; Gambino, Anthony J.; Bellara, Aarti – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2018
This study compared five common multilevel software packages via Monte Carlo simulation: HLM 7, M"plus" 7.4, R (lme4 V1.1-12), Stata 14.1, and SAS 9.4 to determine how the programs differ in estimation accuracy and speed, as well as convergence, when modeling multiple randomly varying slopes of different magnitudes. Simulated data…

Bokhove, Christian; Drijvers, Paul – International Journal of Computers for Mathematical Learning, 2010
In the Netherlands, as in many other countries, the algebraic expertise of students graduating from secondary education is an issue. The use of digital tools for algebra education is expected to change epistemologies, activity structures and student achievement. Therefore, a study was set up to investigate in what way the use of ICT in upper…
