Wang, Shenshen; Sun, Chao; Tian, Ye; Breheny, Richard – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2021
In the long history of psycholinguistic research on verifying negative sentences, an often-reported finding is that participants take longer to correctly judge negative sentences true than false, while being faster to judge their positive counterparts true (e.g. Clark & Chase, Cogn Psychol 3(3):472-517, 1972; Carpenter & Just, Psychol Rev…

Ing, Marsha; Chinen, Starlie; Jackson, Kara; Smith, Thomas M. – Educational Measurement: Issues and Practice, 2021
Despite the ease of accessing a wide range of measures, little attention is given to validity arguments when considering whether to use the measure for a new purpose or in a different context. Making a validity argument has historically focused on the intended interpretation and use. There has been a press to consider both the intended and actual…

Holton, Derek; Symons, Duncan – Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, 2021
As a follow-up to their article, "Emojis and Their Place in the Mathematics Classroom" (EJ1358586), the authors examine how emojis can be used as bridging representations to support student understanding of proof and algebra in upper primary school. They take a problem from reSolve, Level 3, (AAMT, 2020), look at it from the perspective…

This paper presents a novel figure for teaching multiple geometric proofs of the Pythagorean theorem. Because it consists only of congruent given right triangles, the figure can be constructed using a template of the given right triangle or, if available, a computer program. Within the figure, called a Pythagorean multi-proof square, there are…

Becker, Stephen P. – Grantee Submission, 2021
Objective: To conduct a systematic review of the measures designed to assess sluggish cognitive tempo (SCT) since the first SCT scale using careful test-construction procedures was published in 2009. Methods: The MEDLINE (PubMed), Embase, PsychINFO, and Web of Science databases were searched from September 2009 through December 2019. Articles…

Feedback has great influences on student retention and completion, especially on the minority students in higher education. However, the debates on the paradoxical difference between feedback's theoretical potential and its effect in actual practice remain unsettled. This study seeks to address some primary issues in feedback research by…

The current study examined the convergent validity between the standardized PEAK Comprehensive Assessment (PCA) and the semi-standardized PEAK Pre-assessment (PEAK-PA). Twenty-two participants were administered each tool, and an item by item analysis was conducted to evaluate correlations between tests. The results suggested a strong positive…

Golan, Ofer; Terner, Michael; Israel-Yaacov, Sandra; Allison, Carrie; Baron-Cohen, Simon – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2023
The Autism-Spectrum Quotient is a self-report scale, used to assess autistic traits. It was tested cross-culturally, and a short version was created to clinically refer adults for an autism assessment. This study aimed to examine the properties of the Hebrew version of the Autism-Spectrum Quotient and to create a short version suitable for…

Gorges, Julia; Weidner, Enya M. – Journal of Experimental Education, 2023
This study investigated the predictive validity of school-subject-specific self-concepts of ability, intrinsic task values, and cost (operationalized as task effort) for motivation regarding unclassified novel learning content--a fictional project management course--as a function of perceived similarity between school subject and novel learning…

This article describes the development of the Multi-Tiered System of Supports-Interventionist Beliefs Scale (MTSS-IBS). The introduction reviews the importance between practitioner beliefs and MTSS success. Because there is no measure to assess the MTSS beliefs of school interventionists for the success of all students, we used a principal…
