Marszalek, Jacob M.; Hamilton, Jessica L. – Measurement and Evaluation in Counseling and Development, 2012
Four maltreatment items were examined from Wave III (N = 13,516) of the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health. Item analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, cross-validation, reliability estimates, and convergent validity coefficients strongly supported the validity of using the four items as a unidimensional composite. Implications for…

Sanetti, Lisa M. Hagermoser; Dobey, Lisa M.; Gritter, Katie L. – Journal of Positive Behavior Interventions, 2012
For more than 10 years, the "Journal of Positive Behavior Interventions" has published, among other types of articles, behavioral intervention outcome studies related to positive behavior support. Operationally defining interventions is important to facilitating replication studies and adoption of intervention in applied settings. Furthermore,…

Bruni, Coral M.; Chance, Randie C.; Schultz, P. Wesley – Journal of Environmental Education, 2012
The Environmental Motives Scale (EMS) was developed to measure an individual's concerns about environmental issues. The measure provides subscale scores for egoistic, social-altruistic, and biospheric concerns. Prior studies have shown a good fit for the 3-factor structure, but the measure has yet to be used with children. In this paper we report…

Vinney, Lisa A.; Grade, John D.; Connor, Nadine P. – Journal of Communication Disorders, 2012
The manner in which a communication disorder affects health-related quality of life (QOL) in children is not known. Unfortunately, collection of quality of life data via traditional paper measures is labor intensive and has several other limitations, which hinder the investigation of pediatric quality of life in children. Currently, there is not…

Dempsey, Carrie M.; Iwata, Brian A.; Fritz, Jennifer N.; Rolider, Natalie U. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2012
We compared the effects of 2 observer-training procedures. In vivo training involved practice during actual treatment sessions. Video training involved practice while watching progressively more complex simulations. Fifty-nine undergraduate students entered 1 of the 2 training conditions sequentially according to an ABABAB design. Results showed…

Tidikis, Viktoria; Ash, Ivan K. – Creativity Research Journal, 2013
This study investigated the effects of working in dyads and their associated gender composition on performance (solution rate and time) and process variables (number of impasses, number of passed solutions, and number of problem solving suggestions and interactions) in a set of classic insight problem solving tasks. Two types of insight problems…

Jolley, Alison; Jones, Francis; Harris, Sara – Journal of Geoscience Education, 2013
Geologic time is a crucial component of any geoscientist's training. Essential knowledge of geologic time includes rates of geologic processes and the associated time it takes for geologic features to form, yet measuring conceptual thinking abilities in these domains is challenging. We describe development and initial application of the Landscape…

Bedewy, Dalia; Gabriel, Adel – International Journal of Educational Psychology, 2013
The study reported here aimed to develop and psychometrically assess an instrument to measure examination anxiety among undergraduate university students. Based on empirical evidence and recent literature review we developed a 12 item scale to measure the severity of examination anxiety. The instrument was administered to students, two weeks…

Watkins, Marley W.; Canivez, Gary L.; James, Trevor; James, Kate; Good, Rebecca – International Journal of School & Educational Psychology, 2013
Irish educational psychologists frequently use the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Fourth U.K. Edition (WISC-IV[superscript UK]) in clinical assessments of children with learning difficulties. Unfortunately, reliability and validity studies of the WISC-IV[superscript UK] have not yet been reported. This study examined the construct…
