Meeting Psychometric Requirements for Disposition Assessment: Valid and Reliable Indicators of Teacher Dispositions
Johnston, Pattie; Wilson, Adrianne; Almerico, Gina M.
Journal of Instructional Pedagogies, v21 Oct 2018
Research links to positive student outcomes have highlighted the need to address disposition during teacher clinical practice using sound measures. Education preparation providers may use these indicators to create defensible measures of disposition by formatting the indicators into Likert scales or rubrics. Authors have extended the psychometric evaluation of validated indicators by calculating reliability estimates. Additional evidence of construct validity was also provided by aligning the nine dispositions with prominent teacher evaluation instruments and quality standards.
