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. We also…

Schmitz, Eva A.; Salemink, Elske; Wiers, Reinout W.; Jansen, Brenda R. J. – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2022
The Abbreviated Math Anxiety Scale (AMAS) is commonly used to compare groups on math anxiety. Group comparisons should however be preceded by a demonstration of metric and scalar measurement invariance, which is currently only available for undergraduate students in the USA. This study tested for metric and scalar measurement invariance of AMAS…

Nice, Matthew L.; Joseph, Matthew; Kolbert, Jered B.; Hilts, Derron N.; Crothers, Laura M.; Kratsa, Kristi – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2021
The present work describes the development of a new measure of school counselors' perceived self-efficacy regarding their knowledge of information and processes necessary to effectively guide their students through the college transition process. Researchers developed the School Counselor Efficacy for College Knowledge Questionnaire and examined…

Tan, Tony Xing; Yi, Zhiyao; Kamphaus, Randy W.; Wang, Yan; Li, Zhengjie; Cheng, Ke – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2020
We tested the reliability and construct validity of a Chinese translation of one of the forms of the Behavior Assessment System for Children (3rd Edition)--Self-Report of Personality for adolescent 11- to 21-year olds (BASC-3-SRP-A). The BASC-3-SRP-A yields 16 subscales that form four composite scales. Data were obtained from 444 12- to 14-year…

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…

Harrell-Williams, Leigh M.; Lovett, Jennifer N.; Lee, Hollylynne S.; Pierce, Rebecca L.; Lesser, Lawrence M.; Sorto, M. Alejandra – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2019
Recently adopted state standards for middle grades and high school mathematics content have an increased emphasis on statistical topics. With this change, teacher education programs may need to adapt how they prepare preservice secondary mathematics teachers (PSMTs) to teach statistics and require measures related to statistics teaching to assess…

There is hardly any cross-cultural research on the measurement invariance of the Brief Multidimensional Students' Life Satisfaction Scales (BMSLSS). 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…

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…
