Applying variable- and person-centered approaches in the study of higher education learning outcomes
Many believe that higher education contributes to students’ joint cognitive and non-cognitive development. However, relevant empirical evidence of that is scarce. Employing a sample of 348 college students, the present study explored the relationships among a range of outcomes using both a variable- and a person-centered approach. We found that a sense of purpose, strength of principles, and moral agency were positively associated. However, cogni…
A Reframing of Meaning-Making and Its Measurement Among Emerging Adults
This paper presents the theoretical and methodological foundations of Living a Life of Meaning and Purpose-C (LAMP-C), a novel quantitative instrument designed to assess meaning-making capacity among emerging adults to be used as part of a battery of assessments for religiosity. Drawing on Constructive-Developmental Theory (CDT) as articulated by Robert Kegan, Sharon Daloz Parks, and Marcia Baxter Magolda, LAMP-C operationalizes complex developme…

Performance Assessment of Critical Thinking
Enhancing students’ critical thinking (CT) skills is an essential goal of higher education. This article presents a systematic approach to conceptualizing and measuring CT. CT generally comprises the following mental processes: identifying, evaluating, and analyzing a problem; interpreting information; synthesizing evidence; and reporting a conclusion. We further posit that CT also involves dealing with dilemmas involving ambiguity or conflicts a…
Novice middle school teachers’ preparedness for teaching, and the helpfulness of supports
Novice teachers’ readiness for teaching may affect the quality of the classroom environment and teachers’ likelihood of remaining in teaching. Using a survey of novice teachers in one state, we examine teachers’ preparedness for teaching, the supports offered, and the perceived helpfulness of those supports. Even novice teachers often had some type of prior experience: particularly substitute teaching (64%) and as a teacher aide or assistant (44%…
Assessment for Monitoring of Education Systems
Over the last two decades, with the increase in both numbers of participating jurisdictions and media attention, international large-scale assessments (ILSAs) have come to play a more salient role in global education policies than they once did. This has led to calls for greater transparency with regard to instrument development and closer scrutiny of the use of instruments in education policy. We begin with a brief review of the history of ILSAs…
Performance assessment and standardization in higher education
BackgroundThere is unrealized potential in higher education for greater use of performance assessment, particularly in support of teaching and learning: Well-designed performance tasks can elicit evidence regarding what students know and can do with respect to complex learning objectives. At the same time, there is some pressure, at least in the United States, to widen usage of standardized assessments in order to facilitate comparisons among ins…

Tile Fragments as Characteristic Evidence for Ancient Roman Settlements
Regression-like Analysis of Birth Interval Sequences
Employing a family of generalized linear models for the gamma distribution, the structure of birth interval data derived from three historical populations is examined. The relative importance of such factors as current age, parity of the mother, and duration of marriage in determining the length of succeeding intervals is investigated. The results suggest that the three data sets have a common, rather simple structure and various applications of …
