Modelling of the Attitude-Achievement Paradox in TIMSS 2015 with Respect to the Extreme Response Style Using Multidimensional Item Response Theory
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
PDF on ERIC Download full text
Dibek, Munevver Ilgun; Cikrikci, Rahime Nukhet – International Journal of Progressive Education, 2021
This study aims to first investigate the effect of the extreme response style (ERS) which could lead to an attitude-achievement paradox among the countries participating in the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS 2015), and then to determine the individual- and country-level relationships between attitude and achievement…

Examination of the Extreme Response Style of Students Using IRTree: The Case of TIMSS 2015
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
PDF on ERIC Download full text
Dibek, Munevver Ilgun – International Journal of Assessment Tools in Education, 2019
In the literature, response style is one of the factors causing an achievement-attitude paradox and threatens the validity of the results obtained from studies. In this regard, the aim of this study is two-fold. Firstly, it attempts to determine which item response tree (IRTree) models based on the generalized linear mixed model (GLMM) approach…

Uncovering Substantive Patterns in Student Responses in International Large-Scale Assessments--Comparing a Latent Class to a Manifest DIF Approach
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Oliveri, María Elena; Ercikan, Kadriye; Zumbo, Bruno D.; Lawless, René – International Journal of Testing, 2014
In this study, we contrast results from two differential item functioning (DIF) approaches (manifest and latent class) by the number of items and sources of items identified as DIF using data from an international reading assessment. The latter approach yielded three latent classes, presenting evidence of heterogeneity in examinee response…

Analysis of Sources of Latent Class Differential Item Functioning in International Assessments
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Oliveri, Maria Elena; Ercikan, Kadriye; Zumbo, Bruno – International Journal of Testing, 2013
In this study, we investigated differential item functioning (DIF) and its sources using a latent class (LC) modeling approach. Potential sources of LC DIF related to instruction and teacher-related variables were investigated using substantive and three statistical approaches: descriptive discriminant function, multinomial logistic regression,…

The Internal/External Frame of Reference Model of Self-Concept and Achievement Relations: Age-Cohort and Cross-Cultural Differences
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Marsh, Herbert W.; Abduljabbar, Adel Salah; Parker, Philip D.; Morin, Alexandre J. S.; Abdelfattah, Faisal; Nagengast, Benjamin; Möller, Jens; Abu-Hilal, Maher M. – American Educational Research Journal, 2015
The internal/external frame of reference (I/E) model and dimensional comparison theory posit paradoxical relations between achievement (ACH) and self-concept (SC) in mathematics (M) and verbal (V) domains; ACH in each domain positively affects SC in the matching domain (e.g., MACH to MSC) but negatively in the nonmatching domain (e.g., MACH to…
