In this cross-sectional study, we focused on the Family Involvement Questionnaire-Short Form (FIQ-SF), a widely used parent report that measures family involvement through a three-dimensional structure (school-based involvement, home-school conferencing, home-based involvement), and gathered validity evidence from families of 3,860 preschoolers in China. The results of factor analyses and multiple-group confirmatory factor analysis provided empirical support for the three-dimensional structure underlying the FIQ-SF and the equivalence of this measure across gender groups of preschoolers. Results from the multidimensional graded response model revealed that the FIQ-SF items displayed adequate item-level psychometric characteristics. However, one item on the home-based involvement dimension exhibited slight differential item functioning across gender groups of preschoolers. Findings were discussed in comparison to existing validation studies of the FIQ-SF and recommendations for future research were provided accordingly.","PeriodicalId":8577,"journal":{"name":"Assessment","volume":" ","pages":"10731911251357754"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144833862","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We aimed to investigate the relationship between TOL problem characteristics and problem difficulty in Veterans with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). For each problem, the sample average of moves, time, and optimal moves was used to quantify TOL problem difficulty from 77 Veterans with mild traumatic brain injury. Problem characteristics of minimum moves, optimal paths, move choices, start position, and goal position for 29 TOL problems were linearly regressed against quantifications of TOL problem difficulty. Only the problem characteristic of minimum moves showed a significant correlation across all three quantifications of problem difficulty (r = |-.460|-.851). Minimum moves accounted for 71.4 % and 51.2% of the adjusted variance of problem difficulty quantified by average moves and average time, respectively. A CSE depicting the relationship of the TOL problem characteristics of minimum moves to problem difficulty, as measured by average moves, was highly accurate. These findings have implications for selecting primary TOL performance variables for research studies and provide insight into creating shorter TOL versions.","PeriodicalId":8577,"journal":{"name":"Assessment","volume":" ","pages":"10731911251347489"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144803318","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study examines the psychometric properties of the BRS across 21 countries, using a sample of 10,259 participants from the COVIDiSTRESS II Global Survey dataset. It investigates the reliability, factor structure, criterion validity, and measurement invariance across age, sex, and countries. The results indicate that the BRS has high reliability, and the two-factor structure is the most widely applicable optimal structure. Full measurement invariance across sex was achieved, while partial measurement invariance across age was established. With respect to geographical heterogeneities, the Central American subgroup achieved full measurement invariance while partial measurement invariance was observed in the South American subgroup. Regarding cultural differences, partial measurement invariance was obtained in the Latin American subgroup. However, the full country group and the other country subgroups did not achieve measurement invariance. The significant correlations between the BRS and factors like stressors, perceived stress, loneliness, social support, and emotion regulation support its criterion validity. These findings suggest that the BRS is a valuable psychometric tool for resilience research. However, caution is needed when applying it across different age groups and countries.","PeriodicalId":8577,"journal":{"name":"Assessment","volume":" ","pages":"10731911251355124"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144768334","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The area under the curve (AUC) of both methods was determined by splitting the dataset at a [20:80] ratio, repeated over 300 iterations with random training and test samples. Mechanical totals' predictive accuracy outperformed nodewise predictability (AUCmechanical = 0.67, SD = 0.04; AUCnodewise = 0.50, SD = 0.03; t[299] = 80.2, Cohen's d = 4.63, p < .001).

The Revised Screening Scale for Pedophilic Interests (SSPI-2) is a comparatively easy-to-score diagnostic actuarial instrument to assess pedohebephilic interests. The present study aimed to examine the convergent, predictive, and incremental validity of the German version of the SSPI-2 in a sample of N = 438 males released from the Austrian prison system who had been convicted and incarcerated because of sexual offenses against children. As expected, the SSPI-2 was moderately correlated with a diagnosis of (exclusive) pedophilia and with the risk assessment instruments Static-99 and Sexual Violence Risk-20 (SVR-20) v2. The examination of the predictive validity revealed moderate effect sizes of the SSPI-2 for the prediction of sexually motivated recidivism. Sequential Cox regressions showed that the SSPI-2 incrementally predicts sexual recidivism and sexual noncontact recidivism beyond the SVR-20 v2 and the diagnosis of exclusive pedophilia; however, the SSPI-2 did not have incremental predictive validity beyond the Static-99. Finally, normative data were constructed for the observed and calculated proportions of pedophilia and exclusive pedophilia diagnoses and for 5-year sexual recidivism rates.","PeriodicalId":8577,"journal":{"name":"Assessment","volume":" ","pages":"10731911251350537"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144697500","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We tested several models, including unidimensional, correlated, higher-order, and bifactor symmetrical and asymmetrical models. To enhance the reliability and generalizability of the findings, we used a large and diverse cohort based on the Planning, Attention, Simultaneous, Successive (PASS) theory and the Cognitive Assessment System 2 (CAS2), which was standardized in the United States. Results showed that the correlated factor model, which reflects relationships among cognitive domains, offers the most fitting representation of intelligence. This outcome aligns with the PASS theory's theoretical foundations, emphasizing intelligence's multifaceted nature. Also, our exploration of cultural relevance invariance underscores the importance of considering demographic-related differences in cognitive processes. By endorsing a correlated factor model, our study encourages a subtle understanding of intelligence that acknowledges the diversity and interconnectedness of cognitive processes, with potential implications for education and clinical assessment practices.","PeriodicalId":8577,"journal":{"name":"Assessment","volume":" ","pages":"10731911251350735"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144688816","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to the key role of visual working memory (VWM) for cross-diagnosis research on information processing deficits, we developed a new VWM paradigm based on the \"global-first\" topological visual perception theory to detect different psychiatric disorders among age groups. In young groups, significant differences in accuracy were observed between topological change and no-shape-change (all p < .05) in bipolar disorder (BD) and schizophrenia (SCZ) at different sequence values, and non-topological change was noted between the other two conditions when the size of the test graphic set in 3 in chronic-SCZ (p3-same = .000/p3-non-topo = .003). The accuracy of the no-shape-change in depression differed from that of topological change when the size of the test graphic was set at 4 (p = .002). In older adults, the accuracy of non-topological change is different from the other two conditions in depression when the size of the test graphic set is 3 (psame = .0314/ptopo = .0390). Our new VWM paradigm demonstrates potential as a complementary diagnostic tool for psychiatric disorders, with preliminary evidence of sensitivity to disease-specific cognitive deficits.
