Klaus D. Jakobsen; Kirsten Callesen; Ejnar B. Larsen; Ole B. V. Pedersen; Maria Didriksen; Sisse R. Ostrowski; Karl B. Christensen – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2025
Purpose: Systemizer Profile Questionnaire (SPQ), which has not been used before, investigates difficulties in mentalisation, sensory- and/or social sensitivity and social cognition (MSSSC) in subjects with Autism-Spectrum-Disorders (ASD) with and without Attention-Deficit-Hyperactivity-Disorder (ADHD). The aim of this study was to evaluate the…

LoGiudice, Andrew B.; Norman, Geoffrey R.; Manzoor, Saba; Monteiro, Sandra – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2023
Students are often encouraged to learn 'deeply' by abstracting generalizable principles from course content rather than memorizing details. So widespread is this perspective that Likert-style inventories are now routinely administered to students to quantify how much a given course or curriculum evokes deep learning. The predictive validity of…

David Bell; Vikki O'Neill; Vivienne Crawford – Practitioner Research in Higher Education, 2023
We compared the influence of open-book extended duration versus closed book time-limited format on reliability and validity of written assessments of pharmacology learning outcomes within our medical and dental courses. Our dental cohort undertake a mid-year test (30xfree-response short answer to a question, SAQ) and end-of-year paper (4xSAQ,…

Much of the research that has examined the writing knowledge of school-age students has relied on interviews to ascertain this information, which is problematic because interviews may underestimate breadth and depth of writing knowledge, require lengthy interactions with participants, and do not permit a direct evaluation of a prescribed array of…

Durak, Ismail; Karagoz, Yalcin – International Journal of Assessment Tools in Education, 2021
The aim of this study is to adapt the Statistics Anxiety Scale (SAS) developed by Vigil-Colet et al. (2008) to Turkish. This study is expected to fill an important gap in the literature since no valid and reliable specific statistics anxiety scale developed or adapted in Turkish for undergraduate students in the literature is available. The sample…

Benton, Tom – Cambridge Assessment, 2018
One of the questions with the longest history in educational assessment is whether it is possible to increase the reliability of a test simply by altering the way in which scores on individual test items are combined to make the overall test score. Most usually, the score available on each item is communicated to the candidate within a question…

The Early Childhood Environment Rating Scales, including the "Early Childhood Environment Rating Scale--Revised" (Harms et al., 2005) and the "Early Childhood Environment Rating Scale, Third Edition" (Harms et al., 2015) are the most widely used observational assessments in early childhood learning environments. The most recent…

Malone, Kathy L.; Boone, William J.; Stammen, Andria; Schuchardt, Anita; Ding, Lin; Sabree, Zakee – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2021
Instruments for assessing secondary students' conceptual understanding of core concepts in biology are needed by educational practitioners and researchers alike. Most instruments available for secondary biology (years 9 to 12) focus only on highly specific biological concepts instead of multiple core concepts. This study describes the development…

Žujovic, Alisa Murphy – ProQuest LLC, 2018
The role of the community college is constantly evolving. At its inception in the early 1900's, the community college's broad focus was to provide quality, affordable education to the members of the community the college serves. Today, that focus remains the same, but has also morphed into one that meets the specific needs of its students. One of…

Kerr, Stephen; Krull, George – Journal of Learning in Higher Education, 2017
This paper explored the authors' concerns about students enrolled in their introductory accounting course. Anecdotal evidence suggested that students struggle with basic arithmetic concepts that underlie basic business transactions even though their math placement and ACT scores are high. A survey of 125 students in a first accounting course was…
