This study aims to describe the process of validity of critical thinking skills on prospective mathematics teachers. This research used a quantitative approach with a survey method. Data were collected from 245 prospective mathematics teachers from 19 Mathematics education study programs at 19 higher education institutions in Indonesia. The data were collected using a questionnaire given via Google Form and analyzed by the Rasch Model analysis using Winstep software and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) using JASP. The results show that the instrument of critical thinking skills with indicators such as open-mindedness, inquisitiveness, systematicity, truth-seeking, analyticity, and self-confidence is valid and reliable, although it has to consider eliminating items and person misfit.

AbstractThe Listening Vocabulary Levels Test (LVLT) created by McLean et al. Language Teaching Research 19:741-760, 2015 filled an important gap in the field of second language assessment by introducing an instrument for the measurement of phonological vocabulary knowledge. However, few attempts have been made to provide further validity evidence for the LVLT and no Vietnamese version of the test has been created to date. The present study describes the development and validation of the Vietnamese version of the LVLT. Data was collected from 311 Vietnamese university students and then analyzed based on the Rasch model using several aspects of Messick’s, Educational Measurement, 1989; American Psychologist 50:741–749, 1995 validation framework. Supportive evidence for the test’s validity was provided. First, the test items showed very good fit to the Rasch model and presented a sufficient spread of difficulty. Second, the items displayed sound unidimensionality and were locally independent. Finally, the Vietnamese version of the LVLT showed a high degree of generalizability and was found to positively correlate with the IELTS listening test at 0.65.

This study proposes and measures a new construct, subjective occupational aspiration, that refers to individuals’ preferences for selected aspects of occupations—economic rewards, authority, freedom, education required, and ability required—that, collectively, support the expression of those occupations. Using a four-step approach to constructing psychometric instruments based on the Rasch model, this study developed and validated the Subjective Occupational Aspiration Scale (SOAS). The SOAS consists of 24 4-point Likert-type items. Both infit and outfit statistics indicated that the Rasch model predicted both items and persons within a reasonable error bound, validating all initial 24 items of the SOAS. However, two sets of items showed reversed difficulties. The final instrument that reflects the corrected difficulty order of items is provided. Suggestions and implications for using the SOAS in practice are also discussed.
