Scale construction utilising the Rasch unidimensional measurement model: A measurement of adolescent attitudes towards abortion

Scale construction utilising the Rasch unidimensional measurement model: A measurement of adolescent attitudes towards abortion.

BACKGROUND Measurement scales seeking to quantify latent traits like attitudes, are often developed using traditional psychometric approaches. Application of the Rasch unidimensional measurement model may complement or replace these techniques, as the model can be used to construct scales and check their psychometric properties. If data fit the model, then a scale with invariant measurement pro...

Rater Errors among Peer-Assessors: Applying the Many-Facet Rasch Measurement Model

In this study, the researcher used the many-facet Rasch measurement model (MFRM) to detect two pervasive rater errors among peer-assessors rating EFL essays. The researcher also compared the ratings of peer-assessors to those of teacher assessors to gain a clearer understanding of the ratings of peer-assessors. To that end, the researcher used a fully crossed design in which all peer-assessors ...

Measuring attitudes and behaviors to studying and learning for university students: a Rasch measurement model analysis.

A Studying and Learning Scale was created using a model of Motivation (sets of ordered stem-items based on Striving for Excellence, Desire to Learn and Personal Incentives), with each item answered from three self-reported perspectives (an Ideal Self-view, a Capability Self-view, and a Studying and Learning Self-view). The response categories were the number of subjects studied. The stem-item s...
