Direct linkAryadoust, Vahid – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2020
The aim of the present study is two-fold. First, it uses eye-tracking to investigate the dynamics of item reading, both in multiple choice and matching items, before and during two hearings of listening passages in a computerized while-listening performance (WLP) test. Second, it investigates answer changing during the two hearings, which include…

Koyama, Dennis; Sun, Angela; Ockey, Gary J. – Language Learning & Technology, 2016
Multiple-choice formats remain a popular design for assessing listening comprehension, yet no consensus has been reached on how multiple-choice formats should be employed. Some researchers argue that test takers must be provided with a preview of the items prior to the input (Buck, 1995; Sherman, 1997); others argue that a preview may decrease the…

Batty, Aaron Olaf – Language Testing, 2015
The rise in the affordability of quality video production equipment has resulted in increased interest in video-mediated tests of foreign language listening comprehension. Although research on such tests has continued fairly steadily since the early 1980s, studies have relied on analyses of raw scores, despite the growing prevalence of item…

End, Christian M.; Worthman, Shaye; Mathews, Mary Bridget; Wetterau, Katharina – Teaching of Psychology, 2010
College students participated in a study on the "psychology of note taking" during which they took notes on video content and later completed a multiple-choice test on the material. Researchers assigned 71 participants to either the ringing condition (the video was disrupted by a ringing cell phone) or the control condition (no cell phone rings…

Hertenstein, Matthew J.; Wayand, Joseph F. – Journal of Instructional Psychology, 2008
Many psychology instructors present videotaped examples of behavior at least occasionally during their courses. However, few include video clips during examinations. We provide examples of video-based questions, offer guidelines for their use, and discuss their benefits and drawbacks. In addition, we provide empirical evidence to support the use…

Hill, Heather C.; Ball, Deborah Loewenberg; Blunk, Merrie; Goffney, Imani Masters; Rowan, Brian – Measurement: Interdisciplinary Research and Perspectives, 2007
This paper provides a summary of the authors' attempts to uncover links between their measures, classroom mathematics instruction, and student learning. This paper also provides evidence regarding one central critique of their measures: that multiple-choice assessments cannot validly represent the knowledge, skills, and judgment involved in actual…
