Implications of Bias in Automated Writing Quality Scores for Fair and Equitable Assessment Decisions
Matta, Michael; Mercer, Sterett H.; Keller-Margulis, Milena A. – School Psychology, 2023
Recent advances in automated writing evaluation have enabled educators to use automated writing quality scores to improve assessment feasibility. However, there has been limited investigation of bias for automated writing quality scores with students from diverse racial or ethnic backgrounds. The use of biased scores could contribute to…

Forzani, Elena; Leu, Donald J.; Yujia Li, Eva; Rhoads, Christopher; Guthrie, John T.; McCoach, Betsy – Reading Research Quarterly, 2021
Motivation for reading is important to comprehension and has been studied extensively in offline reading contexts. However, little is known about the role of motivation in online reading, a new and increasingly important context for reading, largely because of a lack of valid and reliable instruments to estimate a student's motivation for online…

Motivation for reading is important to comprehension and has been studied extensively in offline reading contexts. However, we know little about the role of motivation in online reading, a new and increasingly important context for reading. This is largely because we lack valid and reliable instruments to estimate a student's motivation for online…

Codding, Robin S.; Mercer, Sterett; Connell, James; Fiorello, Catherine; Kleinert, Whitney – School Psychology Review, 2016
There is a paucity of evidence supporting the use of curriculum-based mathematics measures (M-CBMs) at the middle school level, which makes data-based decisions challenging for school professionals. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships among three existing M-CBM indices: (a) basic facts, (b) concepts/application, and (c)…

Knight, George P.; Carlo, Gustavo; Mahrer, Nicole E.; Davis, Alexandra N. – Child Development, 2016
The socialization of cultural values, ethnic identity, and prosocial behaviors is examined in a sample of 749 Mexican-American adolescents, ages 9-12; M (SD) = 10.42 years (0.55); 49% female, their mothers, and fathers at the 5th, 7th, and 10th grades. Parents' familism values positively predicted their ethnic socialization practices. Mothers'…

Codding, Robin S.; Petscher, Yaacov; Truckenmiller, Adrea – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2015
A paucity of research has examined the utility of curriculum-based measurement (CBM) for data-based decision making at the secondary level. As schools move to multitiered systems of service delivery, it is conceivable that multiple screening measures will be used that address various academic subject areas. The value of including different CBM…
