Invariant Measurement with Raters and Rating Scales

Rasch Models for Rater-Mediated Assessments

By: George Engelhard Jr.,Stefanie Wind

The purpose of this book is to present methods for developing, evaluating and maintaining rater-mediated assessment systems. Rater-mediated assessments involve ratings that are assigned by raters to persons responding to constructed-response items (e.g., written essays and teacher portfolios) and other types of performance assessments. This book addresses the following topics: (1) introduction to the principles of invariant measurement, (2) application of the principles of invariant measurement to rater-mediated assessments, (3) description of the lens model for rater judgments, (4) integration of principles of invariant measurement with the lens model of cognitive processes of raters, (5) illustration of substantive and psychometric issues related to rater-mediated assessments in terms of validity, reliability, and fairness, and (6) discussion of theoretical and practical issues related to rater-mediated assessment systems. Invariant measurement is fast becoming the dominant paradigm for assessment systems around the world, and this book provides an invaluable resource for graduate students, measurement practitioners, substantive theorists in the human sciences, and other individuals interested in invariant measurement when judgments are obtained with rating scales.

Rethinking Idiomaticity

A Usage-based Approach

By: Stefanie Wulff

Adopting a usage-based perspective, the present study addresses the question 'which factors do speakers rely upon when assessing the idiomaticity of a construction?' It is the first study to bring together a quantitative corpus-linguistic approach and judgment data to explore the nature of idiomaticity as a complex concept that comprises semantic and formal variation parameters. Stefanie Wulff's book is suitable for researchers and postgraduates in the fields of lexicography, phraseology, corpus linguistics and those who are employing quantitative approaches. Cognitive linguists interested in the empirical underpinnings of their theoretical assumptions will find this required reading.
