Marsh, Herbert W. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2023
The Reciprocal Effects Model (REM) posits that academic self-concept and corresponding achievement measures are reciprocally related over time. Although there is considerable support for the REM based on short-term, narrowly focused educational accomplishments, little research evaluates the long-term implications of this reciprocal pattern of…

Graven, Mellony; Venkat, Hamsa; Bowie, Lynn – ZDM: Mathematics Education, 2023
Assessments, in particular high stakes assessments, impact the nature of teaching and learning. Given this, the goal of citizenship if seen as important needs to feature within high stakes school exit assessments rather than only as part of curriculum and assessment policy rhetoric. South Africa's Mathematical Literacy (ML) curriculum foregrounds…

Robert Jean LeBlanc; Amy Stornaiuolo – Journal of Literacy Research, 2023
In this study, we explore discussions of literature in a high school English Language Arts (ELA) classroom, examining how students read rhetorically. Reading rhetorically considers the ethical effects of narrative content as it is mediated through character dialogue and action, narrator discourse, and the author's organization: a narrative as a…

Doval, Eduardo; Delicado, Pedro – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2020
We propose new methods for identifying and classifying aberrant response patterns (ARPs) by means of functional data analysis. These methods take the person response function (PRF) of an individual and compare it with the pattern that would correspond to a generic individual of the same ability according to the item-person response surface. ARPs…
