Morrison, Kerrianne E.; DeBrabander, Kilee M.; Faso, Daniel J.; Sasson, Noah J. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2019
Previous work indicates that first impressions of autistic adults are more favorable when neurotypical raters know their clinical diagnosis and have high understanding about autism, suggesting that social experiences of autistic adults are affected by the knowledge and beliefs of the neurotypical individuals they encounter. Here, we examine these…

Wendler, Cathy; Glazer, Nancy; Cline, Frederick – ETS Research Report Series, 2019
One of the challenges in scoring constructed-response (CR) items and tasks is ensuring that rater drift does not occur during or across scoring windows. Rater drift reflects changes in how raters interpret and use established scoring criteria to assign essay scores. Calibration is a process used to help control rater drift and, as such, serves as…

Jönsson, Anders; Balan, Andreia – Practical Assessment, Research & Evaluation, 2018
Research on teachers' grading has shown that there is great variability among teachers regarding both the process and product of grading, resulting in low comparability and issues of inequality when using grades for selection purposes. Despite this situation, not much is known about the merits or disadvantages of different models for grading. In…

Polat, Murat; Turhan, Nihan Sölpük – International Journal of Curriculum and Instruction, 2021
Scoring language learners' speaking skills is open to a number of measurement errors since raters' personal judgements could involve in the process. Different grading designs in which raters score a student's whole speaking skills or a specific dimension of the speaking performance could be settled to control and minimize the amount of the error…

Erman Aslanoglu, Aslihan; Sata, Mehmet – Participatory Educational Research, 2021
When students present writing tasks that require higher order thinking skills to work, one of the most important problems is scoring these writing tasks objectively. The fact that raters give scores below or above their performance based on several environmental factors affects the consistency of the measurements. Inconsistencies in scoring…

Sahin, Alper – Shanlax International Journal of Education, 2021
There are several student performances assessed in Intensive English Programs (IEPs) worldwide in each academic year. These student performances are mostly graded by human raters with a certain degree of error. However, the accuracy of these performance assessments is of utmost importance because they feed data into some high stakes decisions…

Cychosz, Margaret; Cristia, Alejandrina; Bergelson, Elika; Casillas, Marisa; Baudet, Gladys; Warlaumont, Anne S.; Scaff, Camila; Yankowitz, Lisa; Seidl, Amanda – Developmental Science, 2021
This study evaluates whether early vocalizations develop in similar ways in children across diverse cultural contexts. We analyze data from daylong audio recordings of 49 children (1-36 months) from five different language/cultural backgrounds. Citizen scientists annotated these recordings to determine if child vocalizations contained canonical…

Manzano, Dexter L. – International Journal of Language Testing, 2022
The increasing popularity of self-assessment prompted several scholars to investigate its effectiveness and accuracy in relation to teacher assessment. However, most of these studies focused only on the consistency estimate perspective. Thus, the current study investigated the interrater reliability between self- and teacher assessment of…
