Robie, Chet; Meade, Adam W.; Risavy, Stephen D.; Rasheed, Sabah – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2022
The effects of different response option orders on survey responses have been studied extensively. The typical research design involves examining the differences in response characteristics between conditions with the same item stems and response option orders that differ in valence--either incrementally arranged (e.g., strongly disagree to…

Malaspina, Martín; Arias, Benito – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2022
One of the strongest predictors of future academic achievement is the early and informal math skills children begin their school studies. Because of this, it is essential to have proper tools for measuring the development of mathematical thinking at an early age to be able to intervene in a timelier, more effective way. The purpose of this…

Congning Ni; Bhashithe Abeysinghe; Juanita Hicks – International Electronic Journal of Elementary Education, 2025
The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), often referred to as The Nation's Report Card, offers a window into the state of U.S. K-12 education system. Since 2017, NAEP has transitioned to digital assessments, opening new research opportunities that were previously impossible. Process data tracks students' interactions with the…

Musa Adekunle Ayanwale; Jamiu Oluwadamilare Amusa; Adekunle Ibrahim Oladejo; Funmilayo Ayedun – Interchange: A Quarterly Review of Education, 2024
The study focuses on assessing the proficiency levels of higher education students, specifically the physics achievement test (PHY 101) at the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN). This test, like others, evaluates various aspects of knowledge and skills simultaneously. However, relying on traditional models for such tests can result in…

Helta Anggia; Anita Habók – Journal on Efficiency and Responsibility in Education and Science, 2024
This study examined the factors adapted from the Motivation for Reading Questionnaire. We considered eight dimensions (Self-Efficacy, Reading Challenge, Reading Curiosity, Reading Involvement, Importance of Reading, Recognition for Reading, Reading for Grades, and Social Reasons for Reading). In addition, we included some items based on the…

Gregory Hine; Chris Forlin; Paola Chivers – Mathematics Education Research Journal, 2024
Addressing the participation rates in senior secondary mathematics courses in Australian schools remains a critically important issue. In this paper, the authors report on quantitative findings from a study in which all year 11 and year 12 (aged 17-18 years) Australian Tertiary Admissions Ranking (ATAR) students in Western Australia were invited…

Ahmet Erol; Mustafa Erol – Journal of Turkish Science Education, 2024
Engineering education aims to equip children with the skills to solve and apply complex problems. Problem-solving processes in engineering require high-level thinking and mind habits. Habit is a term used to describe various aspects of intelligence. Engineering habits of mind are the values, attitudes, and thinking skills associated with…

Matthew Bahnson; Elan C. Hope; Derrick Satterfield; Mary Wyer; Adam Kirn – Journal of Diversity in Higher Education, 2024
Engineering lacks quantitative measures of racism and sexism in engineering graduate education. Racial and gendered disparities in participation, persistence, and experience combined with qualitative evidence indicate that discrimination interferes with marginalized students' well-being and degree completion. The Discrimination in Engineering…

Faramarz Asanjarani; Aneesh Kumar – International Journal of School & Educational Psychology, 2024
This study reports on developing and validating the School Alienation in Online Schooling Scale (SAOSS). School alienation in online schooling is conceptualized as opposed to school belonging and the main reason for minimal participation, reduced educational benefits, and school dropout in school aged-children, especially during the online…

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…

Abu-Ghazalah, Rashid M.; Dubins, David N.; Poon, Gregory M. K. – Applied Measurement in Education, 2023
Multiple choice results are inherently probabilistic outcomes, as correct responses reflect a combination of knowledge and guessing, while incorrect responses additionally reflect blunder, a confidently committed mistake. To objectively resolve knowledge from responses in an MC test structure, we evaluated probabilistic models that explicitly…

Olsho, Alexis; Smith, Trevor I.; Eaton, Philip; Zimmerman, Charlotte; Boudreaux, Andrew; White Brahmia, Suzanne – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2023
We developed the Physics Inventory of Quantitative Literacy (PIQL) to assess students' quantitative reasoning in introductory physics contexts. The PIQL includes several "multiple-choice-multipleresponse" (MCMR) items (i.e., multiple-choice questions for which more than one response may be selected) as well as traditional single-response…

Djatmika, Ery Tri – Online Submission, 2023
This research article aims to reveal leadership accountability based on gender differences. This research was conducted by using an explanatory research design for students as subjects of research who were taking an Organization Development course at the Department of Management, Faculty of Economics and Business, Universitas Negeri Malang. In…

Musa Adekunle Ayanwale – Discover Education, 2023
Examination scores obtained by students from the West African Examinations Council (WAEC), and National Business and Technical Examinations Board (NABTEB) may not be directly comparable due to differences in examination administration, item characteristics of the subject in question, and student abilities. For more accurate comparisons, scores…

Raykov, Tenko; Marcoulides, George A.; Huber, Chuck – Measurement: Interdisciplinary Research and Perspectives, 2020
It is demonstrated that the popular three-parameter logistic model can lead to markedly inaccurate individual ability level estimates for mixture populations. A theoretically and empirically important setting is initially considered where (a) in one of two subpopulations (latent classes) the two-parameter logistic model holds for each item in a…
