Dong, Yixiao; Dumas, Denis; Clements, Douglas H.; Day-Hess, Crystal A.; Sarama, Julie – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2023
Consequential validity (often referred to as "test fairness" in practice) is an essential aspect of educational measurement. This study evaluated the consequential validity of the Research-Based Early Mathematics Assessment (REMA). A sample of 627 children from PreK to second grade was collected using the short form of the REMA. We…

David Bell; Vikki O'Neill; Vivienne Crawford – Practitioner Research in Higher Education, 2023
We compared the influence of open-book extended duration versus closed book time-limited format on reliability and validity of written assessments of pharmacology learning outcomes within our medical and dental courses. Our dental cohort undertake a mid-year test (30xfree-response short answer to a question, SAQ) and end-of-year paper (4xSAQ,…

Jurij Selan; Mira Metljak – Center for Educational Policy Studies Journal, 2023
Since research integrity is not external to research but an integral part of it, it should be integrated into research training. However, several hindrances regarding contemporary research integrity education exist. To address them, we have developed a competency profile for teaching and learning research integrity based on four assumptions: 1) to…

Dina Kamber Hamzic; Mirsad Trumic; Ismar Hadžalic – International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2025
Trigonometry is an important part of secondary school mathematics, but it is usually challenging for students to understand and learn. Since trigonometry is learned and used at a university level in many fields, like physics or geodesy, it is important to have an insight into students' trigonometry knowledge before the beginning of the university…

Rümeysa Kaya; Bayram Çetin – International Journal of Assessment Tools in Education, 2025
In this study, the cut-off scores obtained from the Angoff, Angoff Y/N, Nedelsky and Ebel standard methods were compared with the 50 T score and the current cut-off score in various aspects. Data were collected from 448 students who took Module B1+ English Exit Exam IV and 14 experts. It was seen that while the Nedelsky method gave the lowest…

Berger, Stéphanie; Verschoor, Angela J.; Eggen, Theo J. H. M.; Moser, Urs – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2019
Calibration of an item bank for computer adaptive testing requires substantial resources. In this study, we investigated whether the efficiency of calibration under the Rasch model could be enhanced by improving the match between item difficulty and student ability. We introduced targeted multistage calibration designs, a design type that…

Kim, Misol; Reid, Alan; Rickinson, Mark – Environmental Education Research, 2022
Locus of Control (LOC) is a general term used in social and educational psychology to refer to the perceived source of control for behavioural outcomes. Since the 1980s, various instruments have been developed to measure this construct in relation to pro-environmental behaviours and action. In this article, we revisit the value of this construct…

Babcock, Ben; Siegel, Zachary D. – Practical Assessment, Research & Evaluation, 2022
Research about repeated testing has revealed that retaking the same exam form generally does not advantage or disadvantage failing candidates in selected response-style credentialing exams. Feinberg, Raymond, and Haist (2015) found a contributing factor to this phenomenon: people answering items incorrectly on both attempts give the same incorrect…

Polat, Murat; Toraman, Çetin; Turhan, Nihan Sölpük – International Journal of Curriculum and Instruction, 2022
PISA (Program for International Student Assessment) tests have enabled the OECD countries to see not only the success of their students in gaining the ability to solve some daily problems they may encounter in their lives but also the place in the world rankings as a result of an objective evaluation comparing the achievement results of…

Ferrara, Steve; Steedle, Jeffrey T.; Frantz, Roger S. – Applied Measurement in Education, 2022
Item difficulty modeling studies involve (a) hypothesizing item features, or item response demands, that are likely to predict item difficulty with some degree of accuracy; and (b) entering the features as independent variables into a regression equation or other statistical model to predict difficulty. In this review, we report findings from 13…

Phusee-orn, Songsak; Pongteerawut, Sasipat – Journal of Educational Issues, 2022
The research aimed at studying and comparing the futuristic thinking of Grade 9 students studying in schools of different sizes. The samples of the research were Grade 9 students of semester 2 in academic year 2020 in Sisaket Province, Thailand. The multi-stage random sampling technique was employed for the selection of 860 students from 12…

Gorney, Kylie; Wollack, James A. – Practical Assessment, Research & Evaluation, 2022
Unlike the traditional multiple-choice (MC) format, the discrete-option multiple-choice (DOMC) format does not necessarily reveal all answer options to an examinee. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the reduced exposure of item content affects test security. We conducted an experiment in which participants were allowed to view…

Relationship between Chinese Viewers' Attitude toward Fansub Videos and Attitude against Sponsorship
Boonchutima, Smith; Lou, Ruiqi – Cogent Education, 2022
In this study, we investigated Chinese viewers' attitudes toward fan-subtitled (fansub) online courses, sponsorship, and the sponsors of online courses. In addition, the relationships among these three attitude variables were examined. A cross-sectional research design based on a quantitative methodology was employed in the study. An online…

Guo, Hongwen; Ling, Guangming; Frankel, Lois – ETS Research Report Series, 2020
With advances in technology, researchers and test developers are developing new item types to measure complex skills like problem solving and critical thinking. Analyzing such items is often challenging because of their complicated response patterns, and thus it is important to develop psychometric methods for practitioners and researchers to…
