This study aims to adapt to Turkish the "Scale for the assessment of non-experts: AI literacy" developed by Laupichler et al. (2023a). The scale consists of 31 items with three sub-dimensions: technical understanding, critical thinking, and practical applications. The data required for the validity and reliability study of the scale were…

The Proposed Specifiers for Conduct Disorder (PSCD) assesses psychopathy components of grandiose-manipulative (GM), callous-unemotional (CU), daring-impulsive (DI), and conduct disorder (CD). Research on PSCD is still in its infancy, and further research is necessary to examine its psychometric properties. We investigated the correlations between…

As artificial intelligence(AI) is utilised throughout society, the need to improve AI literacy as an essential competency, not only for specific experts but also for general citizens, is increasing. Therefore, several studies are being conducted on AI education, and attempts are being made to introduce it into the regular education curriculum.…

Background: Secondary behaviours, which encompass reactions developed due to an individual's fear and stress about stuttering, have the potential to exacerbate the condition. Therefore, self-evaluation of secondary behaviours is significant in the multidimensional approach for people who stutter (PWS). Aim: To determine the validity and…

Background: Addenbrooke's Cognitive Examination III (ACE-III) was developed as a screening tool for cognitive disorders. Many countries have proven the cultural adaptation, reliability and validity of ACE-III. Aims: To make cultural adaptations of ACE-III for the Turkish population and to examine its validity and reliability. Methods &…

This article compares two methods for detecting local item dependence (LID): residual correlation examination and Rasch testlet modeling (RTM), in a commonly used 3:6 matching format and an extended matching test (EMT) format. The two formats are hypothesized to facilitate different levels of item dependency due to differences in the number of…

Perfectionism is a multidimensional personality characteristic associated with mental health problems. However, its features are commonly misunderstood, and many people are unaware of the risks it can pose. This study aimed to develop the first self-report measure of perfectionism literacy. That is, the degree of knowledge someone has about…

The Standards for Mathematical Practice (SMPs; CCSSI, 2010) describe mathematical behaviors and habits that students should express during mathematics instruction. Teacher candidates should have knowledge about the SMPs and their implications for mathematical instruction. This study aims to share the validity evidence for interpretations of…

Objective: Analyze the evidence of validity of scores of the Academic Procrastination Scale (APS), its measurement equivalence based on nationality, its reliability of the scores, and its validity in relation to other variables in university students from Ecuador, Venezuela, and Peru. Method: This paper involves a quantitative, descriptive,…

Negative attitudes toward persons with disabilities (PWDs) can lead to stigmatization and exclusion, underscoring the need for effective tools to measure and address such attitudes in educational settings. This study compares the psychometric properties of two scales used to assess attitudes toward PWDs among health science learners: the…

This study aims to develop and validate an age-appropriate, easily manipulated, and robot-based assessment named Computational Thinking Observational Scale (CTOS) for 3- to 5-year-olds. The study sample included 46 preschoolers (M[subscript age] = 3.57 years, SD = 0.36). Expert judgment confirmed excellent content validity, yielding a Scale-level…

This paper presents the development and validation of the Learning & Educator Nurturing Style (LENS), a new inventory in Japanese designed to identify and assess educational philosophy. Based on the Philosophies Held by Instructors of Lifelong-learners (PHIL) framework, LENS was created through a rigorous back-translation process to ensure…

One of the major challenges faced by the education system today is the lack of interest exhibited by undergraduates in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) disciplines. This is particularly concerning as the world is becoming increasingly technology-driven, and a skilled workforce is necessary to meet future demands. Therefore,…

This study was aimed at developing and validating a scale that measures the emotions of secondary school students toward Biology. Before selecting a particular subject, it is very important to measure student's emotions toward that subject. The emotions were measured in two academic contexts: class-related and learning-related situations. The…

Our aim in this study was to analyze associations between the two manipulative tests of the Motor Competence Assessment (MCA) battery and the Wall Drop Punt Kick & Catch (WDPK&C) motor task. One hundred and twelve early adolescents (60 boys; 52 girls; M age = 12.67, SD = 1.78 years) participated. Overall, strong correlations were found…
