Proudfoot, Kevin – Journal of Mixed Methods Research, 2023
Inductive/deductive hybrid thematic analysis offers significant opportunities for researchers, but its application within integrative mixed methods research has yet to be fully explored. Firstly, this article contributes by demonstrating the compatibility of inductive/deductive hybrid thematic analysis with quantitative work in a mixed methods…

Kiliç, Abdullah Faruk; Koyuncu, Ilhan; Uysal, Ibrahim – International Journal of Psychology and Educational Studies, 2023
Classical test theory (CTT) and item response theory (IRT) are two fundamental approaches used in scale development research. Although CTT is the preferred methodology in scale development research in the Republic of Turkey, the IRT methodology has started to gain traction in recent years. In this study, we used the systematic review methodology…

Ives, Samantha T.; Parsons, Seth A.; Cutter, Deidre; Field, Sara A.; Wells, Madelyn Stephens; Lague, Michelle – Reading Psychology, 2023
Motivation to read is a central consideration for teachers and researchers because it is strongly associated with reading performance and is generally accepted as a positive state. The study of reading motivation is plagued by inconsistent terminology and measurement, which impedes a comprehensive knowledge base for teachers and researchers. One…

Emerson, Samantha N.; Conway, Christopher M. – Cognitive Science, 2023
There are two main approaches to how statistical patterns are extracted from sequences: The transitional probability approach proposes that statistical learning occurs through the computation of probabilities between items in a sequence. The chunking approach, including models such as PARSER and TRACX, proposes that units are extracted as chunks.…

Verma, Shiv Kumar; Punekar, Ravi Mokashi – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2023
Nature-inspired designs/organic designs exhibit a very close resemblance with nature especially in terms of form and structure. Form giving for organic design is a special class of design problem that involves the use of inspiration and analogies from nature for creative problem-solving. There is insufficient research in understanding this…

Yamaguchi, Kazuhiro; Zhang, Jihong – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2023
This study proposed Gibbs sampling algorithms for variable selection in a latent regression model under a unidimensional two-parameter logistic item response theory model. Three types of shrinkage priors were employed to obtain shrinkage estimates: double-exponential (i.e., Laplace), horseshoe, and horseshoe+ priors. These shrinkage priors were…

Muñiz, Raquel; Woolsey, Melissa; Keffer, Sarah; Barragán, Sergio – International Journal of Educational Reform, 2023
Amid persistent systemic racism, society is interested in changing education systems toward racial equity. Education law and policy play a critical role in these efforts. Given this context, we conducted a systematic review to examine the use of critical systems thinking (CST) in education, a tradition that can aid researchers studying education…

Yanxuan Qu; Sandip Sinharay – ETS Research Report Series, 2023
Though a substantial amount of research exists on imputing missing scores in educational assessments, there is little research on cases where responses or scores to an item are missing for all test takers. In this paper, we tackled the problem of imputing missing scores for tests for which the responses to an item are missing for all test takers.…

Jeanne Kriek; Ashenafi Legesse – Journal of Pedagogical Research, 2023
Students often face difficulties to understand Archimedes' principle and to apply it in everyday life. It is therefore necessary to explore a different teaching approach that addresses students' visual and auditory senses in a unique manner. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of using multiple representations on undergraduate…

Aurora Martinez del Rio – ProQuest LLC, 2023
In this dissertation, I examine how fingerspelled words and core signs in American Sign Language (ASL) reduce as they are repeated. This investigation is motivated by theories of language production that posit that reduction may be shaped not only by reducing articulatory effort, but also by accommodation to an interlocutor's understanding of the…
