  • Utility of Scales Derived from Teacher Judgements of Adolescent Academic Performance and Psychosocial Behavior

    Open AccessRobert L Baker, Birgitte R Mednick et al.ARTICLEEducational and Psychological…1991

    Justification is presented for using teacher judgements of student achievement and psychosocial functioning as "indirect measures" of school-related outcomes. An 18-year follow up study of a Danish birth cohort (N=350), for whom no standardized or "direct" measures were available, was used as the context in which the BAMED Teacher Rating Form was designed and developed. The 106-item Form yielded 23 empirically and logically derived scales with al…

    Birgitte R Mednick, Robert L Baker et al.ARTICLEJournal of Divorce & Remarriage1990

Reading and mathematics proficiency measures collected in the 11th and 12th grades were correlated with a set of eight measures derived from an intensive interview of the mothers designed to assess various potential stresses in the soci…

  • Academic and psychosocial characteristics of low-birthweight adolescents

    Robert L Baker, Birgitte R Mednick et al.ARTICLEBiodemography and Social Biology1987References: 9

    A sample of 94 children with low birthweights (LBW ≤ 2500 grams) was identified in a group of 857 children who took part in an 18‐year follow‐up study of the Danish Prospective Perinatal Cohort. The LBW group was compared with the rest of the sample on a set of long‐term intellectual and psychosocial outcomes. In addition, the relative predictive power of low birthweight and a set of environmental variables regressed on two adolescent academic ou…

  • The Data Base for Rehabilitation Services

    William A Spencer, Robert L Baker et al.ARTICLEMedical Care1976

    Rehabilitation is a long-term multidisciplinary, and outcome-oriented process, which requires a more complex data base than one derived from a strictly medical model of diagnosis, treatment, and cure. The rehabilitation data base must document need and potential for benefit, reasons for encounter, intensity of services, response to services in terms of outcome and durability of rehabilitation, and significant modifiers related to the individual a…

  • English-Russian Translation at the Beginning Level

    Robert L BakerARTICLEThe Slavic and East European…1975

    in the preceding period is the reaction often observed, rather than a process of evolution incorporating what was sound in earlier practice. This is certainly true of the founders of the so-called audiolingual method in the late fifties. Reacting against the grammar-translation method of teaching foreign languages, they achieved much of lasting value-despite the fact that not all of their followers understood them properly. These early proponents…

  • The Application of a Self-Instructional Technique to Develop a Test-Taking Strategy

    Open AccessJames C Moore, Richard E Schutz et al.ARTICLEAmerican Educational Research…1966References: 6

    Test-wiseness is recognized as an important source of variation in educational and psychological measurement. A test-wise examinee can be expected to obtain a higher test score than an equally competent examinee who lacks test sophistication. Test constructors have attempted to reduce such variation by writing clear and comprehensive directions concerning timing and scoring. However, no matter how good the directions, cursory observation of any g…

    The responses of 64 children to a picture articulation test of 18 consonants in the initial, medial, and final positions were analysed. A principal components analysis was performed and components rotated to simple structure. The analysis yielded 13 factors which are interpretable in terms of the standard consonant classification system but which suggest modifications in the system
