A 4 x 4 factorial experiment was conducted with 152 college age volunteers to investigate the effects of different forms of mathemagenic information (algorithms, heuristics, attribute elaboration, and attribute isolation) on concept acquisition. Results showed that both definition and instance presentation had a significant effect on students'…

Brennan, Robert L. – 1974
An attempt is made to explore the use of subjective probabilities in the analysis of item data, especially criterion-referenced item data. Two assumptions are implicit: (1) one wants to obtain a maximum amount of information with respect to an item using a minimum number of subjects; and (2) once the item is validated, it may well be administered…

Lied, Terry R.; Tolliver, Don L. – 1973
Through utilization of effective sampling procedures, libraries may obtain substantial savings in terms of data collection costs. A theoretical statistical sampling model is presented and two types of random sampling techniques are empirically compared as to their effectiveness in estimating a library usage parameter. Implications are drawn for…

Shuford, Emir H., Jr.; Brown, Thomas A. – 1974
A student's choice of an answer to a test question is a coarse measure of his knowledge about the subject matter of the question. Much finer measurement might be achieved if the student were asked to estimate, for each possible answer, the probability that it is the correct one. Such a procedure could yield two classes of benefits: (a) students…

Rippey, Robert M. – 1971
Technical improvements, which may be made in the reliability and validity of tests through confidence scores, are discussed. However, studies indicate that subjects do not handle their confidence uniformly. (MS)

Bergman, Brian A.; Siegel, Arthur I. – 1972
Training evaluation and student achievement measurement literature is reviewed with primary emphasis placed on studies reported in the last 10 years. Recent trends in training evaluation and student achievement measurement are presented. Factors relating to this topic, such as statistical methods, course development methods, training techniques,…
