Mathematics satisfaction can drive students to work harder in math class. Thus, it is vital to assess the satisfaction of learners using an instrument to intervene in the teaching and learning process. There are research studies that have independently developed questionnaires to measure students' mathematics satisfaction, but most of them focused…

Depression is a latent characteristic that is measured through self-reported or clinician-mediated instruments such as scales and inventories. The precision of depression estimates largely depends on the validity of the items used and on the truthfulness of people responding to these items. The existing methodology in instrumentation based on a…

The Frost Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale or FMPS is one of the first empirically validated measures of perfectionism. Cultural nuances demand that the efficiency of a short version of this scale, FMPS -- Brief, be tested on an Asian sample. Given the wealth of studies that consistently linked perfectionism to academic achievement, research…

Concurrent classrooms, also called hybrid classrooms, have become a well-liked teaching strategy. Research suggests that face-to-face and online set-ups are best integrated, combining their strengths to create a unique learning experience consistent with the context and intended educational purposes. However, more extensive research still needs to…

Teachers are the frontline workers in sustaining quality education; hence, assessing their knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors (KAB) allows them and the administrators to create better training, programs, and instructional materials. The objective is to develop and validate a quick and accessible online instrument to assess the teachers' KAB…

The first batch of graduates in the country under the K-12 curriculum graduated in 2018. Thus, a call for an evaluation of students' acquired competency is essential. That's why, there is a need for the construction of assessment tools. In this study, a valid, reliable, and item quality achievement test in General Mathematics was developed. Eight…

Recently, Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT) has caused a considerable interest in the school community due to the widescale lockdown brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic. The curriculum's alteration necessitated a call to explore mechanisms for effective remote instruction delivery--including parental involvement. This research determined the…

The objective of this study was to examine the psychometric properties of the Filipino version of the Academic Delay of Gratification Scale (ADOGS; Bembenutty and Karabenick, "Learn Individ Differ" 10:329-346, 1998). This instrument measures the degree to which students postpone immediately available opportunities to satisfy their…

The purpose of this study was to construct and evaluate an instrument for determining student preparedness in College Algebra. A 73-item instrument covering prerequisite arithmetic and high school Algebra knowledge for College Algebra was constructed. The instrument was pilot-tested on a freshman population of 595 students. Results of reliability…
