Lottridge, Susan; Woolf, Sherri; Young, Mackenzie; Jafari, Amir; Ormerod, Chris – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2023
Background: Deep learning methods, where models do not use explicit features and instead rely on implicit features estimated during model training, suffer from an explainability problem. In text classification, saliency maps that reflect the importance of words in prediction are one approach toward explainability. However, little is known about…

Ian Jones; Ben Davies – International Journal of Research & Method in Education, 2024
Educational researchers often need to construct precise and reliable measurement scales of complex and varied representations such as participants' written work, videoed lesson segments and policy documents. Developing such scales using can be resource-intensive and time-consuming, and the outcomes are not always reliable. Here we present…

Manjula Wijewickrema – portal: Libraries and the Academy, 2024
This research compares the performance measures reported by two bibliographic databases relevant to a set of authors who have published in predatory journals. The reliability of decision-making based on the information provided by uncontrolled bibliographic databases is examined to support rational decisions. A sample of authors who published in…

Stefan K. Schauber; Anne O. Olsen; Erik L. Werner; Morten Magelssen – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2024
Introduction: Research in various areas indicates that expert judgment can be highly inconsistent. However, expert judgment is indispensable in many contexts. In medical education, experts often function as examiners in rater-based assessments. Here, disagreement between examiners can have far-reaching consequences. The literature suggests that…

Guido Schwarzer; Gerta Rücker; Cristina Semaca – Research Synthesis Methods, 2024
The "LFK" index has been promoted as an improved method to detect bias in meta-analysis. Putatively, its performance does not depend on the number of studies in the meta-analysis. We conducted a simulation study, comparing the "LFK" index test to three standard tests for funnel plot asymmetry in settings with smaller or larger…

Sermin Metin; Mehmet Basaran; Merve Yildirim Seheryeli; Emily Relkin; Damla Kalyenci – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2024
In the early years, it has become essential to support the acquisition of computational thinking, which is seen as a 21st-century skill and new literacy. A valid and reliable measurement tool is needed to develop and evaluate educational practices related to these skills. "TechCheck" is a validated unplugged assessment of computational…

Tenko Raykov; George A. Marcoulides; Natalja Menold – Applied Measurement in Education, 2024
We discuss an application of Bayesian factor analysis for estimation of the optimal linear combination and associated maximal reliability of a multi-component measuring instrument. The described procedure yields point and credibility interval estimates of this reliability coefficient, which are readily obtained in educational and behavioral…

Farahiyah Wan Yunus; Sakinah Idris; Siti Noraini Asmuri; Bess Fowler; Muhammad Hibatullah Romli – American Journal of Play, 2024
The authors contend that children benefit from play as a form of intervention and as a means of fostering their cognitive, social, and physical growth. They review several standardized instruments developed over the last fifty years to assess this benefit of play on child development. They identify twenty-one such play measures, the majority of…

Razavipour, Kioumars; Raji, Behnaz – Language Testing in Asia, 2022
The credibility of conclusions arrived at in quantitative research depends, to a large extent, on the quality of data collection instruments used to quantify language and non-language constructs. Despite this, research into data collection instruments used in Applied Linguistics and particularly in the thesis genre remains limited. This study…

Unal, Zafer – Journal of Interactive Learning Research, 2022
Despite over fifteen years of flipped classroom implementation, current literature does not provide any reliable, standardized rubric as a guideline to create or evaluate flipped classroom lessons based on effective flipped classroom design principles. In fact, at the time of this study, when an internet search for existing rubrics was conducted,…

Pereira, Valerie J.; Tuomainen, Jyrki; Lee, Kathy Y. S.; Tong, Michael C. F.; Sell, Debbie A. – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2021
Background: The status of the velopharyngeal mechanism can be inferred from perceptual ratings of specified speech parameters. Several studies have proposed the measure of an overall velopharyngeal composite score based on these perceptual ratings and have reported good validity. The Cleft Audit Protocol for Speech--Augmented (CAPS-A) is a…

Sas, Marlies; Snaphaan, Thom; Pauwels, Lieven J. R.; Ponnet, Koen; Hardyns, Wim – Field Methods, 2023
This study focuses on the use of systematic social observations (SSO) to measure crime prevention through environmental design (CPTED) and disorder. To improve knowledge about measurement issues in small area research, SSO is conducted by means of three different methods: in-situ, photographs, and Google Street View (GSV) imagery. By evaluating…

Zhou, Shuqi; Merzdorf, Hillary E.; Douglas, Kerrie A.; Moore, Tamara J. – Journal of Pre-College Engineering Education Research, 2023
This study aimed to develop a K-12 classroom observation protocol to assess K-12 teachers' implementation of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) integration. The intended purpose of the observation protocol is for researchers to examine how K-12 teachers implement the STEM integrated curriculum. Based on research on STEM…

McCluskey, Sydne – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Rater comparison analysis is commonly necessary in the social sciences. Conventional approaches to the problem generally focus on calculation of agreement statistics, which provide useful but incomplete information about rater agreement. Importantly, one-number agreement statistics give no indication regarding the nature of disagreements, nor do…

Luu, Kimberly; Sidhu, Ravi; Chadha, Neil K.; Eva, Kevin W. – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2023
Clinical supervisors are known to assess trainee performance idiosyncratically, causing concern about the validity of their ratings. The literature on this issue relies heavily on retrospective collection of decisions, resulting in the risk of inaccurate information regarding what actually drives raters' perceptions. Capturing in-the-moment…
