Psychometric Characteristics of the Attitudes toward Mathematics and Its Teaching (ATMAT) Scale.

Ludlow, Larry H.; Bell, Karen N.

Educational and Psychological Measurement, v56 n5 p864-80 Oct 1996

Fifty education majors in two sections responded to an Attitudes toward Mathematics and Its Teaching (ATMAT) scale. Results with two psychometric models, classical true-score theory and the one-parameter Rasch model, supported the ATMAT's reliability, content and construct validity, and invariance over three time points.
