Luo, Jiaorong; Yang, Mingcheng; Wang, Ling – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
The increased Simon effect with increasing the ratio of congruent trials may be interpreted by both attention modulation and irrelevant stimulus-response (S-R) associations learning accounts, although the reversed Simon effect with increasing the ratio of incongruent trials provides evidence supporting the latter account. To investigate if…

De Jesus Alvares Mendes Junior, Isaias; Alves, Maria Do Céu – Cogent Education, 2023
Several studies with quantitative, qualitative or theoretical approaches have been carried out, focusing on the application of the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) in the educational sector. However, despite the literature on the subject, it is difficult to draw an overview of the use of the BSC in this sector. In order to fill this gap, our research…

Xiao, Leifeng; Hau, Kit-Tai – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2023
We examined the performance of coefficient alpha and its potential competitors (ordinal alpha, omega total, Revelle's omega total [omega RT], omega hierarchical [omega h], greatest lower bound [GLB], and coefficient "H") with continuous and discrete data having different types of non-normality. Results showed the estimation bias was…

Lorette, Pernelle – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2023
Quantitative social scientists have adopted the positivist epistemology and methodology of natural sciences, seeking objectivity, generalisability, and neutrality. However, in social sciences -- unlike in natural sciences -- humans are both the investigators and the object of investigation, leading to intricate interconnections between researchers…

Philip Ezekiel Dakwo; Yagmur Cerkez; Engin Baysen – SAGE Open, 2023
Every sport requires players to practice constantly to develop skills and the zeal to become a perfect player increases based on the players' anxiety-performance level. This makes humor styles of players a significant counterweight to the severity associated with anxiety-performance in basketball learning practices. As a result, the study aimed to…

Craig K. Enders – Grantee Submission, 2023
The year 2022 is the 20th anniversary of Joseph Schafer and John Graham's paper titled "Missing data: Our view of the state of the art," currently the most highly cited paper in the history of "Psychological Methods." Much has changed since 2002, as missing data methodologies have continually evolved and improved; the range of…

Courtney, Matthew G. R.; Chang, Kevin C. – Teaching Statistics: An International Journal for Teachers, 2018
The article presents some notes on normalization and illustrates these procedures using graphing functions in R. Using real data, the paper also presents an R package and online Shiny app that efficiently transforms variables in large datasets.

Anqi Zhao; Peng Ding; Tirthankar Dasgupta – Grantee Submission, 2018
Given two 2-level factors of interest, a 2[superscript 2] split-plot design (a) takes each of the 2 [superscript 2] = 4 possible factorial combinations as a treatment, (b) identifies one factor as `whole-plot,' (c) divides the experimental units into blocks, and (d) assigns the treatments in such away that all units within the same block receive…

Mathematics anxiety (MA) has a debilitating impact on learning, achievement, mental health, and the future career life of students. Though MA is a popular research theme, there is little agreement among researchers regarding the cross-cultural effect of gender. The purpose of this paper was to explore the perceived MA differences among males and…

Allanson, Patricia E.; Notar, Charles E. – Education Quarterly Reviews, 2020
This article discusses the basics of the "4 scales of measurement" and how they are applicable to research or everyday tools of life. To do this you will be able to list and describe the four types of scales of measurement used in quantitative research; provide examples of uses of the four scales of measurement; and determine the…

Shen, Zuchao; Kelcey, Benjamin – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2020
Conventional optimal design frameworks consider a narrow range of sampling cost structures that thereby constrict their capacity to identify the most powerful and efficient designs. We relax several constraints of previous optimal design frameworks by allowing for variable sampling costs in cluster-randomized trials. The proposed framework…

Bi, Henry H. – Studies in Higher Education, 2020
Although teachers at many colleges and universities receive regular performance reviews (e.g. annual reviews), there are no absolute standards regarding what teaching performance in terms of teaching evaluation ratings during the review period is satisfactory. To address this issue, in this paper we propose a new two-step approach to construct…

Sengül Avsar, Asiye – Measurement: Interdisciplinary Research and Perspectives, 2020
In order to reach valid and reliable test scores, various test theories have been developed, and one of them is nonparametric item response theory (NIRT). Mokken Models are the most widely known NIRT models which are useful for small samples and short tests. Mokken Package is useful for Mokken Scale Analysis. An important issue about validity is…

Iannario, Maria; Manisera, Marica; Piccolo, Domenico; Zuccolotto, Paola – Sociological Methods & Research, 2020
In analyzing data from attitude surveys, it is common to consider the "don't know" responses as missing values. In this article, we present a statistical model commonly used for the analysis of responses/evaluations expressed on Likert scales and extended to take into account the presence of don't know responses. The main objective is to…
