Teachers Foster Intergroup Empathy
This study examined a professional development program aimed at supporting Jewish civics teachers in their efforts to promote empathy among their students toward Israeli Arabs. Previous results indicated an increase in outgroup empathy among teachers who watched and reflected upon clips from a television sitcom. This article focuses on skills teachers developed and strategies they designed and implemented following their experience with empathy p…
Personal Values and Intergroup Empathy
Empirical evidence shows that personal values have an influence on empathy in intrapersonal relationships. We examine the relationship between the values of self-enhancement and self-transcendence among members of the majority group (Israeli Jews) and empathy towards in-group and out-group members (Israeli Arabs). Two hundred and ninety-seven Israeli Jewish students took part in the study. While the results show that self-transcendence values hav…
Lessons to Be Learned From Research on Peace Education in the Context of Intractable Conflict
Recent research on peace education entails important practical lessons about educational work in regions of intractable conflict. Peace education in this context must deal with collective narratives and deeply rooted historical memories and societal beliefs. Research findings from a series of studies with Israeli and Palestinian students and teachers demonstrate the challenges of attaining durable and worthwhile effects through educational activi…
Enhancing the Validity and Usefulness of Large-Scale Educational Assessments: III. Nels:88 Mathematics Achievement to 12th Grade
Enhancing the Validity and Usefulness of Large-Scale Educational Assessments: III. Nels: 88 Mathematics Achievement to 12th Grade
The present study demonstrates the utility of a multidimensional representation of student mathematics achievement. Third in a series of studies using the math test item level data from the NELS: 88 longitudinal study, it carries the analyses through the 12th grade. Full information factor analysis was employed to investigate the structure of math achievement, create meaningful achievement scales, and explore their relationships with student back…

Haggai Kupermintz, Michele M. Ennis, Laura S. Hamilton, Joan E. Talbert, Richard E. Snow, Enhancing the Validity and Usefulness of Large-Scale Educational Assessments: I. NELS:88 Mathematics Achievement, American Educational Research Journal, Vol. 32, No. 3 (Autumn, 1995), pp. 525-554
Enhancing the Validity and Usefulness of Large-Scale Educational Assessments: II. Nels:88 Science Achievement
This study is second in a series demonstrating that achievement tests are multidimensional and that using psychologically meaningful subscores in national educational surveys can enhance test validity and usefulness. NELS:88 8th- and l0th-grade science tests were subjected to full information item factor analysis. Factors reflecting everyday knowledge, scientific reasoning, chemistry knowledge, and reasoning with knowledge were obtained in 8th gr…

This study demonstrates that the validity and usefulness of mathematics achievement tests can be improved by defining psychologically meaningful subscores that yield differential relations with student, teacher, and school variables. The NELS:88 8th- and 10th-grade math tests were subjected to full information item factor analysis. Math knowledge and math reasoning factors were distinguished at both grade levels. Regression analyses showed that s…
