Mapping out the Hexagon Measurement Framework as a Blueprint Underlying Measurement in the Human Sciences

Journal of Educational Measurement, Volume 63, Issue 1, Spring 2026.
Abstract Recently the “Hexagon Measurement Framework” has been proposed as a unifying interpretation of measurement across the physical and human sciences. While the steps for using this Framework to understand and to perform a measurement are extensively described and discussed in previous publications of ours, what is discussed only briefly there is ...

Multidimensional rasch models for partial credit scoring [PDF]

, 1996
Rasch models for partial-credit scoring are discussed and a multidimensional version of the model is formulated. A model may be specified in which consecutive item responses depend on an underlying latent trait. In the multidimensional partial-credit

Keeping Elo alive: Evaluating and improving measurement properties of learning systems based on Elo ratings

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, Volume 79, Issue 1, Page 95-110, February 2026.
Abstract The Elo Rating System which originates from competitive chess has been widely utilised in large‐scale online educational applications where it is used for on‐the‐fly estimation of ability, item calibration, and adaptivity. In this paper, we aim to critically analyse the shortcomings of the Elo rating system in an educational context, shedding ...

Jointly modeling responses and omitted items by a competing risk model: A survival analysis approach

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, Volume 78, Issue 3, Page 804-829, November 2025.
Abstract Item response theory models are commonly adopted in educational assessment and psychological measurement. Such models need to be modified to accommodate practical situations when statistical sampling assumptions are violated. Omission is a common phenomenon in educational testing.

Score‐based tests for parameter instability in ordinal factor models

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, Volume 78, Issue 3, Page 996-1024, November 2025.
Abstract We present a novel approach for computing model scores for ordinal factor models, that is, graded response models (GRMs) fitted with a limited information (LI) estimator. The method makes it possible to compute score‐based tests for parameter instability for ordinal factor models.

Teacher self‐efficacy: Validating a new measurement scale to capture the elusive construct

British Educational Research Journal, Volume 51, Issue 5, Page 2229-2255, October 2025.
Abstract Teachers’ beliefs in their ability to positively impact students’ learning outcomes has become a strong indicator of teachers’ motivation and behaviour towards the instructional strategies they employ. However, measuring the broader concept of teacher self‐efficacy is still somewhat problematic as current scales are dated, have measurement ...

The iADRS as an integrated measure of cognition and function: Psychometric evidence from recent clinical trials in early symptomatic Alzheimer's disease

Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 21, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract INTRODUCTION Psychometric evaluation of the integrated Alzheimer's Disease Rating Scale (iADRS) was performed using data from three randomized clinical trials (RCTs). METHODS Traditional measurement properties of the iADRS were assessed using classical test theory (CTT).
