Naumann, Sandra; Byrne, Michelle L.; de la Fuente, Alethia; Harrewijn, Anita; Nugiel, Tehila; Rosen, Maya; van Atteveldt, Nienke; Matusz, Pawel J. – Mind, Brain, and Education, 2022
In cognitive neurosciences, fundamental principles of mental processes and functional brain organization have been established with highly controlled tasks and testing environments. Recent technical advances allowed the investigation of these functions and their brain mechanisms in naturalistic settings. The diversity in those approaches have been…

Salinas, Francisco J. – Journal of Education Policy, 2023
With some of the propositions from the literature on 'policy enactments' as a backdrop, this paper addresses the circulation of a research policy innovation and its effects on the knowledge territory of an unlikely profession. Specifically, I show how the Research Excellence Frameworks' impact policy in the UK was an object first managed by…

O'Dwyer, Eowyn P.; Sparks, Jesse R.; Nabors Oláh, Leslie – Applied Measurement in Education, 2023
A critical aspect of the development of culturally relevant classroom assessments is the design of tasks that affirm students' racial and ethnic identities and community cultural practices. This paper describes the process we followed to build a shared understanding of what culturally relevant assessments are, to pursue ways of bringing more…

Gustavo Henndel Lopes; Pei-Tseng Jenny Hsieh – National Foundation for Educational Research, 2025
Standardised cross-national learning assessments may help drive education policy change and system improvements across Africa but support is required to overcome operational and technical challenges. This recognition has led to sustained technical and geographical development of regional assessments like those from PASEC, the Program for the…

Marcoulides, Katerina M.; Yuan, Ke-Hai – International Journal of Research & Method in Education, 2020
Multilevel structural equation models (MSEM) are typically evaluated on the basis of goodness of fit indices. A problem with these indices is that they pertain to the entire model, reflecting simultaneously the degree of fit for all levels in the model. Consequently, in cases that lack model fit, it is unclear which level model is misspecified.…

Cirkony, Connie; Rickinson, Mark; Walsh, Lucas; Gleeson, Jo; Salisbury, Mandy; Cutler, Blake – Educational Research, 2022
Background: Rapid reviews involve a streamlined approach to knowledge synthesis. They are used to identify high-quality evidence for the purpose of informing decisions and initiatives, completed over relatively short timeframes, and have been found to reach conclusions that do not differ extensively from full systematic reviews. Although common in…

Elizabeth Talbott; Andres De Los Reyes; Devin M. Kearns; Jeannette Mancilla-Martinez; Mo Wang – Exceptional Children, 2023
Evidence-based assessment (EBA) requires that investigators employ scientific theories and research findings to guide decisions about what domains to measure, how and when to measure them, and how to make decisions and interpret results. To implement EBA, investigators need high-quality assessment tools along with evidence-based processes. We…
