Nov 5th 2024, 03:01

Abstract
The work of educational measurement is a highly collaborative endeavor that brings together professionals from many disciplines. While the introduction of the “Foundational Competencies in Educational Measurement” acknowledges this, the explanation of the framework itself falls short in acknowledging the competencies and skills of those from disciplines other than psychometrics, such as content development professionals (CDPs). Therefore, it is unable to sufficiently address the nature of validation work or other work not led by psychometricians. It also underexplores the vital competencies that underlie effective collaboration. As a result, it defines the competencies of psychometric work instead of the larger field of educational measurement.

Nov 5th 2024, 02:59

Abstract
Objectives
Higher education students experience elevated levels of suicidal ideation, but often face barriers in accessing support. The Mental Imagery for Suicidality in Students Trial (MISST; ISRCTN13621293; NCT05296538) tested the feasibility and acceptability of a six-session imagery-based approach called Broad-Minded Affective Coping (BMAC). This qualitative evaluation explored the experiences of MISST participants and staff.
Design
A qualitative study using one-to-one qualitative interviews with participants and staff recruited from MISST. Reflexive thematic analysis was used to explore trial participant and staff experiences to inform a future definitive trial.
Methods
Student participants (n = 16), research assistants (n = 4) and the trial therapist (n = 1) were interviewed and transcripts analysed using reflexive thematic analysis.
Results
Four key themes were identified. The first theme highlights the value and challenges for students in talking about suicide. The ways in which communication and rapport can be built to facilitate this conversation are explored in theme 2. Theme 3 explains how working with the BMAC therapist increased participants’ awareness of their current mood, drew their attention to positive moments in their lives and helped them to actively recall these moments to interrupt negative cycles of rumination and suicidal ideation. The extent to which the BMAC is ‘fit for purpose’ is outlined in theme 4, generating specific recommendations for future intervention development.
Conclusions
The BMAC offers a positive, time-limited, structured intervention that is well suited to meet the needs of higher education students experiencing suicidal ideation. Further research is needed to test the effectiveness on mental health and suicide-related outcomes.

Nov 5th 2024, 01:32

The Prison Journal, Ahead of Print. The present study focuses on perceptions of forgiveness among formerly incarcerated people engaged in peer-support roles, based on their lived experience and referred to as wounded healers. Participants were 26 men and women with a history of addiction, trauma, and incarceration who are employed in formal peer-support positions and in the community. The participants reported achieving personal and social forgiveness through their peer work, expressing their social acceptance which is relevant to their recovery. The theoretical and practical implications of the findings are discussed from the perspective of convict therapy and Enright’s forgiveness therapy.

Nov 5th 2024, 00:39

Culture &Psychology, Ahead of Print. In secular Western societies, individuals often embark on an autonomous quest for meaning in life, which, however, can lead to frustration. In contrast, many East Asian ethical leaders draw on age-old teachings to find fulfillment—an underexplored topic that merits further investigation. By analyzing ancient Confucian tenets and the discourses of modern Confucian leaders, this paper unveils three key aspects of the Confucian meaning of life: The Heavenly Way (the comprehension that good begets good), the Heavenly Mandate (the purpose of doing good), and the Heavenly Nature (the significance of one’s inherent goodness). From a psychological perspective, this “Confucian meaning framework” has persisted for millennia because its elements not only exhibit internal consistency and structural robustness but also fulfill humanity’s psychological needs for meaningfulness, transcendence, justice, self-improvement, competence, altruism, relatedness, morality, moral autonomy, and self-esteem. Therefore, ancient Confucian wisdom effectively counters the contemporary existential vacuum in modern East Asia. This paper highlights the crucial role of cultural heritage in our existential quests, opening new avenues for blending philosophical insights with psychological research. It also illustrates the power of psychological theories to explain the lasting influence of certain ancient cultures on modern life, demonstrating the intriguing interplay between culture and psychology.

Nov 4th 2024, 23:09

Organizational Research Methods, Ahead of Print. When modeling responses to items measuring non-cognitive constructs that require introspection (e.g., personality, attitude), most studies have assumed that respondents follow the same item response process—either a dominance or an unfolding one. Nevertheless, the results are not equivocal, as some preliminary evidence suggests that some people use an unfolding response process, whereas others use a dominance response process. To enhance item response modeling, it is critical to develop measurement models that can accommodate heterogeneity in the item response processes. Therefore, we proposed the Mixture Dominance-Unfolding Model (MixDUM) to formally identify this potential population heterogeneity. Monte Carlo simulations showed that MixDUM possessed reasonably good statistical properties. Moreover, ignoring item response process heterogeneity was detrimental to item parameter estimation and led to less accurate selection outcomes. An empirical study was conducted in which respondents completed focal personality scales under either an honest condition or a simulated job application condition, to demonstrate the utility of MixDUM. The findings indicated (1) that MixDUM provided the best fit across scales, (2) that approximately 55–60% of respondents utilized an unfolding response process, (3) that respondents exhibited moderate consistency in their use of response processes across scales, (4) that narcissism consistently negatively predicted the use of an unfolding response process, and (5) that the criterion-related validity of focal personality scores varied across latent classes for certain criteria. To encourage its use, we provided a tutorial on the implementation of MixDUM in the R package mirt.

Nov 4th 2024, 22:32

The Prison Journal, Ahead of Print. Opportunities for incarcerated persons to connect with their loved ones exist in several forms. Yet, there is limited evidence documenting the scope of state prison family engagement policies beyond visitation. To fill this gap, a systematic policy review and content analysis of nine state prison family engagement policies was conducted. The results provide evidence of both consistencies and inconsistencies in policies across forms of prison contact, as well as opportunities and barriers for incarcerated persons. Important policy and practice takeaways are discussed, particularly the need for more timely, transparent, and clear policies regarding family engagement in correctional settings.

Nov 4th 2024, 21:28

Journal of Disability Policy Studies, Ahead of Print. In 1997, the United States Agency for International Development established a policy focused on including people with disabilities in its development efforts. For the past two decades, this initiative has been echoed globally, yet research on its effectiveness remains limited. This study revisits a previous 2015 analysis by examining the language in the agency’s 2021 solicitations, a total of 194, which detail program requirements and activities. The research reveals an incomplete adherence to the commitment to including persons with disabilities. Of the solicitations, 44% did not mention persons with disabilities. Thirty-eight percent (n = 92) of Requests for Applications included some or significant inclusive language, while 23% (n = 22) of Annual Program Statement solicitations did. All (n = 11) Requests for Proposals had some degree of inclusive language. Education and global health are the most inclusive sectors. This study also identifies four practices in the more inclusive solicitations: (a) explicit clarity on who to engage, (b) inclusion of instruments to protect persons with disabilities, (c) the outlining of indicators linked directly to persons with disabilities, and (d) mandated co-design and engagement with persons with disabilities. This highlights a need for more consistent inclusion of disability considerations in development solicitations.

Nov 4th 2024, 18:59

American Journal of Men’s Health, Volume 18, Issue 5, September-October 2024. Hispanic men have the highest prevalence of obesity relative to other racial and ethnic subgroups; however, this population is consistently underrepresented in weight management interventions. This systematic review aims to provide an overview of behavioral weight management interventions adapted for Hispanic men and describe their tailoring strategies and efficacy. Six online databases were selected for their abundant collection of high-quality, peer-reviewed literature and searched for studies which evaluated and reported weight outcomes for a cohort of adult (>18 years) Hispanic men. Of 6,508 unique publications screened, 12 interventions met inclusion criteria, the majority of which were published in the past 10 years. Only one study regarding an intervention tailored for Hispanic men was a randomized controlled trial adequately powered to assess a weight-based outcome; the remaining assessed feasibility or utilized quasi-experimental methods. Intervention characteristics and tailoring strategies varied considerably, but content was most frequently based on the Diabetes Prevention Program. Tailoring strategies commonly focused on improving linguistic access and incorporating social or family support. Follow-up varied from 1 month to 30 months and mean change in weight, the most common outcome, ranged from 0.6 to −6.3 kg. Our findings reveal a need for more fully powered randomized controlled trials evaluating the efficacy of interventions systematically tailored specifically for Hispanic men. Although the majority were not fully powered, these interventions showed some efficacy among their small cohorts for short-term weight loss. Future directions include exploring how to tailor goals, concepts, and metaphors included in interventions and comparing individual to group delivery settings.

Applied Psychological Measurement, Ahead of Print. Test-retest reliability is often estimated using naturally occurring data from test repeaters. In settings such as admissions testing, test takers choose if and when to retake an assessment. This self-selection can bias estimates of test-retest reliability because individuals who choose to retest are typically unrepresentative of the broader testing population and because differences among test takers in learning or practice effects may increase with time between test administrations. We develop a set of methods for estimating test-retest reliability from observational data that can mitigate these sources of bias, which include sample weighting, polynomial regression, and Bayesian model averaging. We demonstrate the value of using these methods for reducing bias and improving precision of estimated reliability using empirical and simulated data, both of which are based on more than 40,000 repeaters of a high-stakes English language proficiency test. Finally, these methods generalize to settings in which only a single, error-prone measurement is taken repeatedly over time and where self-selection and/or changes to the underlying construct may be at play.
