摘要

量表检测变化的能力,即对变化的敏感性,在纵向研究中非常重要。我们介绍了一项定量研究,比较了与课程内容的一致性和项目细化(通用措辞与具体措辞)对不同量表捕捉 ICT 自我效能变化的能力的影响。在对一门信息与传播技术教学课程的评估中,我们使用了信息与传播技术自我报告问卷,在一个学期开始和结束时,分别对治疗组和对照组(= 278 对 = 395)的职前教师进行了问卷调查。在对估算数据进行倾向得分匹配后,我们采用了描述性、频数主义和贝叶斯方法来研究不同的量表行为。结果显示,教学信息与通信技术自我效能感量表的纵向变化更为明显,尤其是针对具体任务制定的量表。我们的研究结果表明,更好的配准和具体的表述可以提高对自我报告变化的敏感度,并与教育评价中的量表构建和选择有关。

Improving sensitivity to change in self-report items: The role of alignment and item formulation in a longitudinal evaluation

The capability of scales to detect change, i.e. sensitivity to change, is important in longitudinal studies. We present a quantitative study comparing the effects of alignment to course content and item granularity (generic vs. concrete wording) on the capability of different scales to capture changes in ICT self-efficacy. In an evaluation of a course on teaching with ICT, we used ICT self-report questionnaires for pre-service teachers at the beginning and end of a one-semester in a treatment and a control group (Nintervention = 278 vs. Ncontrol = 395). After propensity score matching on the imputed data, we applied descriptive, frequentist, and Bayesian methods to examine differential scale behavior. Results show more pronounced longitudinal changes for scales on instructional ICT self-efficacy, especially for scales formulated for concrete tasks. Our results suggest that better alignment and specific formulation enhance sensitivity to change in self-reports, and relate to scale construction and selection in educational evaluations.
