Frans, Niek; Post, Wendy; Oenema-Mostert, Ineke; Minnaert, Alexander – International Journal of Research & Method in Education, 2021
Stability is an important underlying assumption in any form of assessment-supported decision-making. Since early years development is frequently described as unstable, the concept plays a central role in the discussion surrounding early years assessment. This paper describes stability as a set of assumptions about the way individual scores change…

Vermeulen, Jorine A.; Béguin, Anton; Scheltens, Floor; Eggen, Theo J. H. M. – Assessment in Education: Principles, Policy & Practice, 2020
Learning to solve subtraction problems that require borrowing (e.g., 83-57=) is challenging, and these problems often cause 'bridging' errors, such as the smaller-from-larger error. This study explores how bridging errors in subtraction are related to students' mathematical ability. The study involved 694 third-grade students and 35 teachers from…

Wauters, Loes N.; van Bon, Wim H. J.; Tellings, Agnes E. J. M.; van Leeuwe, Jan F. J. – American Annals of the Deaf, 2006
The present study examined whether specific item characteristics, such as mode of acquisition (MoA) of word meanings, make reading comprehension tests particularly difficult for deaf children. Reading comprehension data on nearly 13,000 hearing 7-to-12-year-olds and 253 deaf 7-to-20-year-olds were analyzed, divided across test levels from second…
