Surina He; Xiaoxiao Liu; Ying Cui – Educational Psychology, 2025
The increasing use of low-stakes international assessments highlights the importance of test-taking efforts. Previous studies have used self-reported and response time-based measures to examine this effort. Although differences between these measures have been suggested, their association with performances and potential gender gaps remains…

Kyle D. S. Maclean; Tiffany Bayley – INFORMS Transactions on Education, 2024
We introduce a novel type of assessment that allows for efficient grading of higher order thinking skills. In this assessment, a student reviews and corrects a technical memo that has errors in its formulation or process. To overcome the grading challenges imposed by essay-type responses in large undergraduate courses, we provide a Visual Basic…

Ö. Emre C. Alagöz; Thorsten Meiser – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2024
To improve the validity of self-report measures, researchers should control for response style (RS) effects, which can be achieved with IRTree models. A traditional IRTree model considers a response as a combination of distinct decision-making processes, where the substantive trait affects the decision on response direction, while decisions about…

Danielle R. Blazek; Jason T. Siegel – International Journal of Social Research Methodology, 2024
Social scientists have long agreed that satisficing behavior increases error and reduces the validity of survey data. There have been numerous reviews on detecting satisficing behavior, but preventing this behavior has received less attention. The current narrative review provides empirically supported guidance on preventing satisficing by…

Rista C. Plate; Callie Jones; Joshua Steinberg; Grace Daley; Natalie Corbett; Rebecca Waller – Developmental Psychology, 2024
Examining emotion recognition and response to music can isolate recognition of and resonance with emotion from the confounding effects of other social cues (e.g., faces). In a within-sample design, participants aged 5-6 years in the eastern region of the United States (N = 135, M[subscript age] = 5.98, SD[subscript age] = 0.54; 78 female, 56 male;…

Karl Lundengård; Peter Johnson; Phil Ramsden – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2024
Formative feedback is important in learning. Automating the provision of specific, objective, constructive feedback to large cohorts requires complex algorithms that most teachers do not have time to develop, suggesting that a community effort is needed to create a library of specialised algorithms. We present an exemplar algorithm for a class of…

Su, Wei – Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, 2023
Anonymous peer feedback has long been used as a common activity in higher education, yet few studies have systematically tracked students' perceived comfort levels over time, and even fewer have compared givers' and receivers' comfort under this intervention. To address this gap, the present study tracked 40 Chinese university students over eight…

Zhu, Wenlei; Yu, Shulin; Zheng, Yao – Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, 2023
From a positive psychology perspective, this case study explores learners' academic emotions in giving and receiving peer feedback on second language writing and the possible influences of emotions on learners' uptake of peer feedback. The data were collected from five undergraduates at a Chinese university, including semi-structured interviews,…

Molenaar, Dylan; Cúri, Mariana; Bazán, Jorge L. – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2022
Bounded continuous data are encountered in many applications of item response theory, including the measurement of mood, personality, and response times and in the analyses of summed item scores. Although different item response theory models exist to analyze such bounded continuous data, most models assume the data to be in an open interval and…

Abbie E. Goldberg; David M. Brodzinsky – Infant and Child Development, 2025
Adopted youth often have contact with or at least information about birth family members--but such relationships or knowledge rarely extend to birth fathers. The current study explores ideas, feelings, and questions about birth fathers among youth raised by two mothers, including whether or not they desire contact. Interviews were conducted with…

Many existing solutions for the automatic assessment of open-ended questions predominantly rely on machine learning models, primarily focusing on aspects such as writing style and assigning a final score. However, these solutions often overlook the crucial factor of feedback content relevance, specifically, how well the response aligns with the…

A. Keith Young; Judith Mendoza Jimenez – Learning Professional, 2025
Feedback is essential for learning and a key component of career-long growth. Tailoring feedback formats is important to meet educators' unique needs and stages of development. Drawing on the authors' professional practice, three categories of feedback are defined and illustrated: (1) rapid response formats; (2) moderate engagement formats; and…

Saskia van Laar; Jianan Chen; Johan Braeken – Measurement: Interdisciplinary Research and Perspectives, 2024
Questionnaires in educational research assessing students' attitudes and beliefs are low-stakes for the students. As a consequence, students might not always consistently respond to a questionnaire scale but instead provide more random response patterns with no clear link to items' contents. We study inter-individual differences in students'…

Jan Karem Höhne; Achim Goerres – International Journal of Social Research Methodology, 2024
The measurement of political solidarities and related concepts is an important endeavor in numerous scientific disciplines, such as political and social science research. European surveys, such as the Eurobarometer, frequently measure these concepts for people's home country and Europe raising questions with respect to the order of precedence.…

Joanne Hardman – Advances in Research on Teaching, 2024
South Africa lags significantly in mathematics achievement on international benchmarking tests, which has led to several interventions aimed at improving mathematics attainment in the country. Drawing on the theoretical work of Vygotsky, Leontiev and Engeström, this chapter reports on one such initiative that implemented computer technology into…
