Bielby, William T.; And Others – 1976
This scholarly paper assesses biases due to measurement errors in structural equation models of the intergenerational transmission of socioeconomic status by estimating unobserved variable models with data from the remeasurement program of the 1973 Occupational Changes in Generation-II survey. It is noted that reports of social background and…

Johansson, Stig – English Language Teaching Journal, 1975
The limitations of both methods, and their practical applications, are discussed. (RM)
Descriptors: Comparative Analysis, Contrastive Linguistics, Educational Theories, English (Second Language)
Jarosz, Jozef – Glottodidactica, 1975
Analyzes a corpus of 360 errors made by Polish university students in the German department. Sets up categories of interference-induced and non-interference-induced errors. Relates error analysis to teaching techniques. (Text is in German.) (DH)

Fisher, Kathleen M.; Lipson, Joseph I. – 1982
Defining a "misconception" as an error of translation (transformation, correspondence, interpolation, interpretation) between two different kinds of information which causes students to have incorrect expectations, a Taxonomy of Errors has been developed to examine student misconceptions in an introductory biology course for science…

Chastain, Garvin; And Others – 1981
The hypothesis that word context reduces visual rather than acoustic confusion between possible targets was tested in a series of experiments. All involved tachistoscopic presentation of letter strings followed by a pattern mask. Data from eight college students showed that target letters that are confusable only visually and acoustically…

DeLoache, Judy S.; And Others – 1981
A seriation task (assembling a set of nesting cups) was used in this study to examine developmental changes in young children's ability to restructure a situation. Forty young children, eight each at 18, 24, 30, 36, and 40 months of age, participated in the study. Each child was presented with five nesting cups and was told he or she could play…

Pacheco, Phyllis – 1979
A reading test and three cloze tests (English, health, and social studies passages with fifth/sixth grade readability levels) were administered to 410 ninth grade students to study the relationship between cloze errors and reading ability. Six types of incorrect responses were considered: synonymous, syntactically acceptable but semantically…

Tatsuoka, Kikumi K.; And Others – 1980
Implementation of an adaptive achievement test for teaching signed-numbers operations to junior high students is described. A computer program capable of finding 240 basic errors in signed-number computations was written on the PLATO system and used for analyzing a 64-item conventional test, as well as an adaptive test of addition problems. The…

Carpenter, Thomas P.; And Others – 1979
Forty-three first-grade children, who had received no formal instruction in addition and subtraction, were individually administered 20 problems that could be solved using addition or subtraction. The problems were selected to represent the following semantic types: joining, separating, part-part-whole, comparison, and equalizing. Responses were…

Weaver, Phyllis A. – 1978
A free response cloze test was administered to 31 third graders to test the hypothesis that qualitative as well as quantitative differences in syntactic abilities or skills exist between good and poor readers. The subjects were divided into two reading level groups (good readers and poor readers) according to their scores on the SRA Assessment…

Brennan, Robert L.; Kane, Michael F. – 1975
When classes are the units of analyses, estimates of the reliability of class means are needed. Using classical test theory it is difficult to treat this problem adequately. Generalizability theory, however, provides a natural framework for dealing with the problem. Each of four possible formulas for the generalizability of class means is derived…

RMC Research Corp., Mountain View, CA. – 1974
Results are presented of an onsite review of data gathered in 1971 by the Consolidated Program Information Report (CPIR), a survey instrument designed to fill the data needs of the Office of Education and state education agencies in relation to federally funded elementary and secondary education programs. This validation and error analysis of CPIR…

Tarone, Elaine – 1974
Participants in a seminar series in second language acquisition held at Harvard University discussed three papers by Dulay and Burt ("Goofing: An Indicator of Children's Second Language Learning Strategies,""Should We Teach Children Syntax?", "Natural Sequences in Child Second Language Acquisition"), and developed…

LeBel, Jean-Guy – 1975
This paper discusses the concept of error in the learning of the phonology of a second language and argues that the concept of error must be viewed as a positive element, an initiation of the process of successive approximations toward the correct phonetic realization. Based on the idea that interference between two languages generates a…

Gorbet, Frances – 1974
This paper discusses the problem of how to deal effectively with students' errors from the perspective of Error Analysis. Basic aspects of the theory such as "interlanguage,""learning strategies" and "the interpretation of errors" are introduced; and empirical data from child language learning studies are presented to support the underlying…
