Validity of cardiorespiratory fitness criterion-referenced standards for adolescents.
PURPOSE The clinical utility of cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) criterion-referenced standards (FITNESSGRAM) has not been tested in adolescents. We aimed to determine the ability of the FITNESSGRAM standards to discriminate between low and high cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in a population-based sample of US adolescents. METHODS Participants included 1247 adolescents (45.7% females) aged ...
متن کاملThe criterion-related validity of personality measures for predicting GPA: a meta-analytic validity competition.
Interest in the role of personality traits in predicting academic performance outcomes has steadily increased over the last several decades, enough to produce a number of meta-analyses that summarize this research (e.g., Poropat, 2009; Richardson, Abraham, & Bond, 2012). These previous meta-analyses combine a variety of alternative personality measures under the assumption that they all reflect...
متن کاملConcurrent and Criterion-Referenced Validity of Trunk Muscular Fitness Tests in School-Aged Children
A cause of limited physical activity levels in youth is the presence of low back pain (LBP), therefore proper assessment of low back function in physical education settings is needed to identify children who may be at risk. The purpose of this study was to determine the concurrent and criterion-referenced validity of field tests of low back and core muscular endurance in school-aged children. T...
متن کاملEstimating Criterion-referenced Standards for Multiple-choice Examinations
Four methods were studied for setting a standard on a written examination containing several clinical discipline subtests. The NBME method yielded the most consistent estimate. The Angoff and Ebel methods yielded slightly less consistent estimates. All estimates were more consistent when computed as the average of discipline standards rather than the judges' personal standards. All but the Esse...
متن کاملA Hierarchical IRT Model for Criterion-Referenced Measurement
A hierarchical IRT model is proposed for mastery classification in criterionreferenced measurement. In this model, items measuring the same criterion are grouped, and a difficulty and discrimination parameter of the criterion is estimated on the same scale as the person and item parameters. The level of proficiency of a student with respect to the criterion is determined by the probability of s...
