Flett, Gordon L.; Nepon, Taryn; Goldberg, Joel O.; Rose, Alison L.; Atkey, Sarah K.; Zaki-Azat, Justeena – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2022
Previous work has focused on positive feelings of mattering, which pertain to the human need to feel significant. In the current article, we examine a complementary yet distinct construct involving feelings of not mattering that may arise from being marginalized and experiences that heighten a sense of being insignificant to others.

Geller, Gail; Steinman, Christopher; Caldwell, Meredith; Goldberg, Harry; Hanlon, Caitlin; Wonnell, Teresa; Merritt, Maria W. – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2020
Experiences of wonder should be valued, protected, and promoted in academic settings. Identification of learning environments and interventions that cultivate students' capacity for wonder (CfW) first requires a means to measure it. We used a mixed-methods approach to develop and validate a measure of CfW. In the qualitative component (Studies…

The Learning and Study Strategies Inventory (LASSI) is a very popular tool for measuring the learning and study strategies of high school and college students. Prior research with the LASSI has supported the originally proposed model with three latent traits, with minor variations among the contributing subtests contributing to those traits.…

The current article evaluates the measurement invariance of the BMSLSS across cultural contexts. This cross-sectional study sampled 7,739 adolescents and emerging adults in 23 countries. A multi-group…

The Trait Meta-Mood Scale (TMMS) is an emotional intelligence (EI) assessment originally developed for the U.S. population. This scale measures three EI factors--attention, clarity, and repair--to evaluate how an individual perceives one's own EI skills. Although the TMMS has been adapted for use in several languages and cultures, the structure of…

Lowe, Patricia A. – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2015
The present study examined measurement invariance across gender and gender differences on two measures of test anxiety developed for U.S. middle and high school, and college students. It was hypothesized that measurement invariance and gender differences would be found on the two measures of test anxiety, suggesting no separate scoring system is…
