Dawadi, Saraswati; Shrestha, Sagun; Giri, Ram A. – Online Submission, 2021
The article positions mixed-method research (MMR) as a principled complementary research method to the traditional quantitative and qualitative research approaches. By situating MMR in an analysis of some of the common research paradigms, the article presents it as a natural choice in order to complement and cater to the increasingly complex needs…

Adam Sales; Ethan Prhiar; Thanaporn March Patikorn – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2021
In a randomized controlled trial (RCT), some subjects assigned to the treatment condition may not fully comply. Often there is interest in the effect of the treatment within the "principal stratum" of subjects who would comply if assigned to treatment. However, it is unknown which control subjects would have complied if treated and which…

Razavipour, Kioumars; Raji, Behnaz – Language Testing in Asia, 2022
The credibility of conclusions arrived at in quantitative research depends, to a large extent, on the quality of data collection instruments used to quantify language and non-language constructs. Despite this, research into data collection instruments used in Applied Linguistics and particularly in the thesis genre remains limited. This study…

Mazrekaj, Deni; Witte, Kristof De; Triebs, Thomas P. – Exceptional Children, 2022
We propose using Stochastic Frontier Analysis to estimate pupils' academic underachievement. We model underachievement as the gap between expected achievement and actual achievement, not due to a learning disability. Our data are a panel for 2,228 Belgian pupils observed over 6 years of primary education. We found that the average underachievement…

He, Qingping; Meadows, Michelle; Black, Beth – Research Papers in Education, 2022
A potential negative consequence of high-stakes testing is inappropriate test behaviour involving individuals and/or institutions. Inappropriate test behaviour and test collusion can result in aberrant response patterns and anomalous test scores and invalidate the intended interpretation and use of test results. A variety of statistical techniques…

Robitzsch, Alexander; Lüdtke, Oliver – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2022
One of the primary goals of international large-scale assessments in education is the comparison of country means in student achievement. This article introduces a framework for discussing differential item functioning (DIF) for such mean comparisons. We compare three different linking methods: concurrent scaling based on full invariance,…

Johnson, Amy L.; Gleit, Rebecca D. – Teaching Sociology, 2022
Despite the centrality of data analysis to the discipline, sociology departments are currently falling short of teaching both undergraduate and graduate students crucial computing and statistical software skills. We argue that sociology instructors must intentionally and explicitly teach computing skills alongside statistical concepts to prepare…

Alwarsh, Ahoud A. – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Lean Six Sigma (LSS), which is a strategy that effectively solve problems in the manufacturing and services sectors, is claimed to be a vital strategy that could improve business, solve problems, and upgrade the quality level for education setting. Antony (2014) argues that "higher education institutes (HEI) can deploy both Lean and Six Sigma…

A high level of transparency in reported research is critical for several reasons, such as ensuring an acceptable level of trustworthiness and enabling replication. Transparency in qualitative research permits the identification of specific circumstances which are associated with findings and observations. Thus, transparency is important for the…

Kim, Julianna H.; Hughes, Oscar E.; Demissie, Sarah A.; Kunzier, Timothy J.; Cheung, W. Catherine; Monarrez, Edwin C.; Burke, Meghan M.; Rossetti, Zach – Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2022
Research related to the developmental disability (DD) community should include collaboration "with" individuals with DD. Unfortunately, people with DD are infrequently involved in research projects in meaningful ways, and there is little guidance about how to collaborate equitably with researchers with DD. The purpose of this article is…

Ke-Hai Yuan; Yong Wen; Jiashan Tang – Grantee Submission, 2022
Structural equation modeling (SEM) and path analysis using composite-scores are distinct classes of methods for modeling the relationship of theoretical constructs. The two classes of methods are integrated in the partial-least-squares approach to structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM), which systematically generates weighted composites and uses…

Dvir, Michal; Ben-Zvi, Dani – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2023
Estimating and accounting for statistical uncertainty have become essential in today's information age, and crucial for cultivating a sound decision making citizenry. Engaging with statistical uncertainty early on can support the gradual development of uncertainty-related considerations that are often challenging to foster at any age. Statistical…
