Guskey, Thomas R.; Passaro, Perry D. – American Educational Research Journal, 1994
The structure of "teacher efficacy" was studied with a sample of 342 prospective and experienced teachers through an efficacy questionnaire. Factors correspond to an internal versus external distinction, similar to the locus-of-control measures of causal attribution. (SLD)

Nihira, Kazuo; And Others – American Journal on Mental Retardation, 1993
Home interviews conducted with 102 families of children with developmental delays assessed ecocultural family resources, values, goals, and proactive adaptive efforts. Factor analyses on the ecocultural measures revealed 12 salient factors. Some factors were unique and statistically independent of traditional home environment measures. Significant…

Berkay, Paul James; And Others – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1995
This report documents the development of a scale to measure hearing adults' beliefs about the capabilities of deaf adults. Test items from a list of misconceptions about deaf people were piloted with groups of 38 and 290 undergraduates. Analysis supports scale reliability and validity. (SLD)

Kline, Rex B.; And Others – Assessment, 1994
The construct validity of a supplemental scoring system for the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children (K-ABC) was evaluated with 146 referred school-age children (aged 6 to 12.5 years) and the K-ABC normative sample. Results support the construct validity of only part of the scoring model. (SLD)

Kranzler, John H.; Weng, Li-Jen – Journal of School Psychology, 1995
Investigated the factor structure of a battery of tasks hypothesized to measure the constructs of the planning, attention, and simultaneous-successive (PASS) process model of human cognition. Results suggest that the original PASS model provides an improper factor solution. Recommends further refinement of the PASS theory or tests. (RJM)

Snyder, Scott; Sheehan, Robert – Diagnostique, 1992
Rasch calibration procedures were applied to item-response data for the 1,262 infants and toddlers comprising the standardization sample for the Mental Scale of the Bayley Scales of Infant Development. Analyses tend to confirm the psychometric integrity of the instrument. (Author)

Walker, David W.; Arnault, Lynne S. – Diagnostique, 1991
This study examined the construct validity of the KeyMath-Revised by testing the factorial model proposed by the test author. Results failed to confirm the proposed factorial model and suggested that the KeyMath-Revised assesses two domains that are difficult to interpret, rather than the three proposed by the test author.

Laosa, Luis M. – Early Childhood Research Quarterly, 1991
Considers the mutual relevance of four themes: cultural diversity, construct validity, population generalizability, and professional ethics. Addresses the expanding need for sustained efforts to articulate the complex issues and emerging implications of the new realities of human diversity. Includes a review of previous literature, an assessment…

Cunningham, Anne E.; Stanovich, Keith E. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1991
The construct validity of a new measure of children's exposure to print, the Title Recognition Test (TRT), was assessed with 34 fourth, 33 fifth, and 67 sixth graders. The TRT demonstrated significant correlations with spelling, vocabulary, verbal fluency, word knowledge, and general information. (SLD)

Parker, Richard; And Others – Journal of Special Education, 1992
Twenty years of research on the Maze, a classroom-based reading measure for students with learning disabilities, is summarized. Overall, the research is supportive of the Maze. However, the most common version requires revision to obtain minimum construct validity, and additional research is needed on reliability and usefulness of alternate forms.…

Bain, Sherry K. – Journal of Special Education, 1993
Analysis of Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children (K-ABC) Sequential and Simultaneous Processing scores of 94 children (ages 6-12) with learning disabilities produced factor patterns generally supportive of the traditional K-ABC Mental Processing structure with the exception of Spatial Memory. The sample exhibited relative processing strengths…

Woodrow, Janice E. J. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1991
Examines and compares the characteristics of four computer attitude scales: (1) Stevens'"Computer Survey"; (2) Reece and Gable's "Attitudes toward Computers"; (3) Gressard and Loyd's "Computer Attitude Scale"; and (4) Griswold's "Computer Use Questionnaire." Attitudes toward computer scales are examined, and…

Chiu, Lian-Hwang; Henry, Loren L. – Measurement and Evaluation in Counseling and Development, 1990
Developed Mathematics Anxiety Scale for Children (MASC) and administered to 562 gifted, normal, and mildly mentally handicapped students in grades 4 through 8. Found MASC to be internally consistent measure of mathematics anxiety for grades four through eight. Found construct validity evidence based on MASC's relationship with mathematics grades,…

Tinsley, Howard E. A.; Westcot, Ann M. – Journal of Counseling Psychology, 1990
Examined 3 aspects of construct validity of Expectations about Counseling-Brief form (EAC-B): whether it measures expectations about counseling rather than other constructs, whether test items are clearly understood, whether test maintains respondents' attention. Analyzed cognitions of 30 undergraduates to determine which thought processes were…

Ellett, Chad D.; And Others – Journal of Personnel Evaluation in Education, 1994
Results of a study of 88 Louisiana teachers support the construct validity of the System for Teaching and Learning Assessment and Review (STAR), a comprehensive classroom-based system for assessing teaching and learning but suggest that the use of teacher nominations of colleagues for designation as superior teachers is questionable.
