Pisa and University Entrance Examinations in Spain
Spanish students undertake both the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) and the national University Entrance Examination (PAU), yet the extent to which these assessments reflect comparable constructs remains uncertain. This study examines the association between PISA outcomes and subsequent PAU performance across Spanish regions, with the aim of assessing the degree of alignment between an international competence-based framewor…
Integrating emotional and academic dimensions of perfectionism
Four perfectionism profiles identified in adolescents with a person-centered approach. • Profiles ranged from adaptive to socially driven and non-perfectionist patterns. • Perfectionism profiles showed distinct patterns of socio-emotional adjustment. • Adaptive and self-critical profiles showed similar academic achievement. • Perfectionism–adjustment profile patterns were similar for boys and girls
Inter-subject comparability of the Spanish university entrance examinations
Consistency Analysis of Assessment Boards in University Entrance Examinations in Spain
University entrance examinations (EBAU in Spanish) are a nationwide program for assessing student achievement levels in Spain and determining access to public undergraduate degrees. Considering the need to measure the progress of rater performance, this study analyzes rating data from the June 2018 exam sitting in the Valencian Community, Spain. A total of 54 assessment boards and 3000 students from five public universities were observed. The Man…
Validation of the Pain and Sensitivity Reactivity Scale in Neurotypical Late Adolescents and Adults
Background: In recent years, there has been an increased interest in studying sensory responses to stimuli in both clinical and non-clinical populations. Sensory reactivity has been linked to restrictive and repetitive behaviors. However, few instruments have been designed to assess the dimensions of sensory hyporeactivity and pain in the general population. Methods: The psychometric properties of the Pain and Sensitivity Reactivity Scale (PSRS) …

Relationship between parent involvement and academic achievement through metacognitive strategies
BackgroundDifferent studies reveal an association between parent involvement, metacognition, and academic achievement; however, the majority analyse the developmental process of acquisition in experimental or quasi-experimental designs with students enrolled in child education. Adolescence is an important stage in personal and academic development. Given the complexity of learning, and according to the metacognitive and affective model of self-re…
The Saas-R
We examined the psychometric properties of the School Attitude Assessment Survey–Revised in a Spanish population (n = 1,398). Confirmatory factor analysis procedures supported the instrument's five-factor structure. The results of discriminant analysis demonstrated the predictive power of the School Attitude Assessment Survey–Revised scales as regards academic performance. Implications for education and assessment are discussed
Underachievement in Compulsory Secondary Education
This study compares the statistical methods employed for detecting underachievement, specifically the simple difference method, the regression method and the Rasch method. A sample of 1182 first- and second-year secondary students from 8 high schools in the province of Alicante participated in the study. The results showed a percentage of underachieving students that varies from 14.55% to 30.37%, depending on the statistical method employed. The …
Rendimiento menor al esperado en Educación Secundaria Obligatoria
El presente estudio realiza una comparación de los métodos estadísticos más empleados en la detección del alumnado con rendimiento menor al esperado; concretamente el método de diferencias estandarizadas, el método de residuales de regresión y el método Rasch. Se empleó una muestra de 1182 alumnos de primer y segundo curso de Enseñanza Secundaria Obligatoria de 8 centros educativos de la provincia de Alicante. Los resultados muestran un porcentaj…

Academic Achievement in Early Adolescence
The present study examined the predictive effects of intellectual ability, self-concept, goal orientations, learning strategies, popularity and parent involvement on academic achievement. Hierarchical regression analysis and path analysis were performed among a sample of 1398 high school students (mean age = 12.5; SD =.67) from eight education centers from the province of Alicante (Spain). Cognitive and non-cognitive variables were measured using…
