Direct linkThomas, Asia S.; January, Stacy-Ann A. – Assessment for Effective Intervention, 2021
Educators use universal screening to identify students who may be at risk for not meeting proficiency on the state assessment. Given the potential high-stakes of state tests, using accurate screeners is critical. Independent research is emerging on screeners such as the Measures of Academic Progress (MAP), a computer adaptive test, and the…

Kuppelwieser, Volker G.; Putinas, Aleksa-Carina; Bastounis, Marina – Sociological Methods & Research, 2019
Extending the discussion on replication in sociology and psychology, this article focuses on the adaption of scales in research. Drawing on a recently published scale, we highlight several validity issues in the scale's composition and development. Using data from two empirical studies, we subsequently show how scales can be tested and adapted. In…

Pisani, Lauren; Seiden, Jonathan; Wolf, Sharon – Educational Assessment, Evaluation and Accountability, 2022
Early childhood care and education (ECCE) programs are an important mechanism for supporting foundational skill development and successful progression through later schooling. School readiness assessments that serve as reliable indicators of children's later educational outcomes are most useful for education systems, but little is known about how…

Sordo, Silvia Álava; Garrido-Hernansaiz, Helena; Cantero-García, María; Sánchez-Iglesias, Iván; González-Moreno, Jesús; Santacreu, José – Electronic Journal of Research in Educational Psychology, 2021
Introduction: There are different tests that assess attention and can help to make a differential diagnosis between ADHD and Learning Disabilities (LD), but there appears to be little research on the convergent and predictive validity of these tests. The aim of this study was to analyze the convergent validity of the EMAV, Caras, d2, AGL, CPT-II…

Li, Shaofeng; Qian, Jiancheng – Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 2021
This study investigates the validity of syntactic priming as a measure of implicit language aptitude. Syntactic priming refers to the tendency to reproduce a linguistic structure due to a previous exposure to the structure. The validity of the construct was verified by collating evidence for divergent validity--whether it is dissociable from…

Topping, Keith J. – Research Papers in Education, 2020
Measuring the implementation fidelity (IF) or integrity of interventions is crucial, otherwise a positive or negative outcome cannot be interpreted. Direct and indirect methods of IF measurement tend to over-emphasize teacher behaviour. This paper focuses on IF measured by student behaviour collected through computers. Attainment was measured by…
