Systematic direct observations (SDOs) and behavior rating scales are integral to multimethod behavioral assessment approaches. The present study investigated the convergent validity of the Behavior Observation of Students in Schools (BOSS) form, a widely utilized SDO system, with the most frequently used teacher rating scales in schools, the…

Óscar Chávez; David Barker; Alicia Erwin; Seyedehkhadijeh Azimi – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2023
Proof is a fundamental aspect of mathematics. However, in the high school curriculum, it often receives uneven attention that is focused on form rather than understanding. One avenue for addressing this issue is to change and strengthen teachers' conceptions of proof. To explore this idea, we followed a group of teachers as they participated in a…

Jordan M. Lukins; Harriet Able; Kara Hume – Focus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities, 2023
Despite the contemporary emphasis on evidence-based practices (EBPs) in autism education, the research-to-practice gap persists. Understanding how newly trained teachers' experiences, knowledge, and beliefs about EBPs influence their instructional decisions is vital to increasing EBP implementation among the next generation of special educators.…

Implications of Bias in Automated Writing Quality Scores for Fair and Equitable Assessment Decisions
Michael Matta; Sterett H. Mercer; Milena A. Keller-Margulis – Grantee Submission, 2023
Recent advances in automated writing evaluation have enabled educators to use automated writing quality scores to improve assessment feasibility. However, there has been limited investigation of bias for automated writing quality scores with students from diverse racial or ethnic backgrounds. The use of biased scores could contribute to…

Brent J. Goertzen; Kaley Klaus – Research & Practice in Assessment, 2023
When evaluating student learning, educators often employ scoring rubrics, for which quality can be determined through evaluating validity and reliability. This article discusses the norming process utilized in a graduate organizational leadership program for a capstone scoring rubric. Concepts of validity and reliability are discussed, as is the…

Woods, Isaac L., Jr.; Niileksela, Christopher; Floyd, Randy G. – Contemporary School Psychology, 2021
Racial/ethnic bias in the prediction of students' educational potential was questioned in the Larry P. Vs. Riles case. The construct and predictive validity of the Woodcock-Johnson IV Tests of Cognitive Abilities (WJ IV; Schrank et al. 2014b) have not been examined for racial/ethnic bias. This study extended Keith's (1999) examination of bias…

Pentimonti, Jill M.; Bowles, Ryan P.; Zucker, Tricia A.; Tambyraja, Sherine R.; Justice, Laura M. – Grantee Submission, 2021
Measuring the quality of classroom-based interactive shared book reading within the early childhood classroom represents a specific dimension of teacher-child interactions that is of great interest to researchers. This interest reflects decades of research demonstrating the benefit of reading to young children in both the home and the classroom.…

Shujuan Wang – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Existing methods used to validate self-report questionnaires in foreign language teaching effectiveness have relied on Classical Test Theory (CTT). However, the use of CTT approaches limits the reliability and validity of self-report instruments. The Rasch Model, which is based on the principles of objective measurement, addresses some of the…

Credé, Marcus; Tynan, Michael C. – Journal for the Psychology of Language Learning, 2021
Grit is theoretically defined as the combination of perseverance and passion for long term goals. Both of these constructs are likely to be relevant for our understanding of how language acquisition occurs and for explaining between-person differences in the rate of language acquisition. Despite this relevance, there are methodological and…

Tambling, Rachel R.; Russell, Beth S.; Park, Crystal L.; Fendrich, Michael; Hutchinson, Morica; Horton, Abagail L.; Tomkunas, Alexandria J. – Health Education & Behavior, 2021
Scales assessing stressor exposure often fail to demonstrate adequate psychometric qualities, demonstrating low interitem reliability or complex factor structures, as would be expected, given that the majority of stressors are independent events. However, in large-scale mass crisis events, the stressors may be highly interrelated, indicating…

Bostic, Jonathan; Lesseig, Kristin; Sherman, Milan; Boston, Melissa – Journal of Mathematics Teacher Education, 2021
Classroom observations have become an integral part of research related to mathematics education. In this qualitative study, we describe the current state of the mathematics education field with regard to the use of classroom observation. The research question was: "How is classroom observation being used to measure instructional quality in…

Razmi, Mohammad Hasan; Khabir, Masoud; Tilwani, Shouket Ahmad – International Journal of Language Testing, 2021
Since its inception in 1949, over 1,500 studies have investigated the validity of the GRE General Test to predict its performance criteria in higher education (Klieger, Bridgeman, Tannenbaum, & Cline, 2016). The present review paper sought to examine the predictive validity of the GRE General Test. Factors affecting the predictive validity…
