Olvera Astivia, Oscar Lorenzo; Kroc, Edward; Zumbo, Bruno D. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2020
Simulations concerning the distributional assumptions of coefficient alpha are contradictory. To provide a more principled theoretical framework, this article relies on the Fréchet-Hoeffding bounds, in order to showcase that the distribution of the items play a role on the estimation of correlations and covariances. More specifically, these bounds…

Xue, Linting; Lynch, Collin F. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2020
In order to effectively grade persuasive writing we must be able to reliably identify and extract extract argument structures. In order to do this we must classify arguments by their structural roles (e.g., major claim, claim, and premise). Current approaches to classification typically rely on statistical models with heavy feature-engineering or…

Bell, Stephen H.; Stapleton, David C.; Wood, Michelle; Gubits, Daniel – American Journal of Evaluation, 2023
A randomized experiment that measures the impact of a social policy in a sample of the population reveals whether the policy will work on average with universal application. An experiment that includes only the subset of the population that volunteers for the intervention generates narrower "proof-of-concept" evidence of whether the…
