Bartholomew, Scott R.; Strimel, Greg J.; Yoshikawa, Emily – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2019
While design-based pedagogies have increasingly been emphasized, the assessment of design projects remains difficult due to the large number of potentially "correct" solutions. Adaptive comparative judgment (ACJ), an approach based on assessors/judges working through a series of paired comparisons and selecting the better of two items,…

Wind, Stefanie A.; Alemdar, Meltem; Lingle, Jeremy A.; Moore, Roxanne; Asilkalkan, Abdullah – International Journal of STEM Education, 2019
Typical approaches to assessing students' understanding of the engineering design process (EDP) include performance assessments that are time-consuming to score. It is also possible to use multiple-choice (MC) items to assess the EDP, but researchers and practitioners often view the diagnostic value of this assessment format as limited. However,…

Gummer, Tobias – Sociological Methods & Research, 2019
Survey research is still confronted by a trend of increasing nonresponse rates. In this context, several methodological advances have been made to stimulate participation and avoid bias. Yet, despite the growing number of tools and methods to deal with nonresponse, little is known about whether nonresponse biases show similar trends as nonresponse…

After creating a peer evaluation instrument using the Student-Driven Peer Evaluation Method in a team-based learning course and…

Yechiam, Eldad; Ashby, Nathaniel J. S.; Hochman, Guy – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2019
The majority of the literature on the psychology of gains and losses suggests that losses lead to an avoidance response. Several studies, however, have shown that losses can also lead to an approach response, whereby an option is selected more often when it produces losses. In five studies we examine the boundary conditions for these contradictory…

Stiglbauer, Barbara; Zuber, Julia – Educational Psychology, 2019
Regulatory focus is a strong predictor for a person's behaviour in signal detection tasks. While a promotion focus is related to a risky response strategy (hits, false alarms), a prevention focus is associated with a conservative strategy (correct rejections, misses). The present research is based on the assumption that multiple-choice (MC)…

O'Keeffe, Lynsey; Guerin, Suzanne; McEvoy, John; Lockhart, Karen; Dodd, Philip – British Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2019
Background: This paper considers the challenges regarding the development and use of self-report tools for sensitive, personal topics, in this case experiences of death and bereavement for individuals with intellectual disabilities (ID). These challenges are represented through the experience of the development of a self-report measure of…

Mindfulness practices have become a common component of daily life in many settings and may serve to bolster resiliency, particularly among university students. This study expanded on our previous work to compare the effects of receiving or not receiving a brief daily mindfulness-based practice in large-scale university courses. Data were…

Almeida, Telma Sousa; Lamb, Michael E.; Weisblatt, Emma J. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2019
Twenty-seven autistic children and 32 typically developing (TD) peers were questioned about an experienced event after a two-week delay and again after a two-month delay, using the Revised National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) Investigative Interview Protocol. Recall prompts elicited more detailed and more accurate…

Miyatsu, Toshiya; Gouravajhala, Reshma; Nosofsky, Robert M.; McDaniel, Mark A. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2019
Learning naturalistic categories, which tend to have fuzzy boundaries and vary on many dimensions, can often be harder than learning well defined categories. One method for facilitating the category learning of naturalistic stimuli may be to provide explicit feature descriptions that highlight the characteristic features of each category. Although…

Elizondo-Garcia, Josemaria; Schunn, Christian; Gallardo, Katherina – International Journal of Instruction, 2019
Peer feedback has become a common practice in MOOCs for its capacity to scale formative assessment and feedback on higher-order abilities. Though many practices for improving peer assessment have been examined, there is a lack of knowledge of how instructional design and platform features affect the quality of peer assessment and the relative…

DeMars, Christine E. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2019
Previous work showing that revised parallel analysis can be effective with dichotomous items has used a two-parameter model and normally distributed abilities. In this study, both two- and three-parameter models were used with normally distributed and skewed ability distributions. Relatively minor skew and kurtosis in the underlying ability…

We report an effort to replicate and extend Levelt and Kelter's (1982) Experiment 3. In their study, experimenters phoned businesses and asked, "At what time does your shop close?" or "What time does your shop close?" Participants were more likely to produce prepositional responses (At 7 o'clock) to questions containing a…
