An Exploration of Undergraduate Mathematics Education Measures and Their Validity Evidence
Page: 686
This report discusses the validity evidence reported in undergraduate mathematics education measures. Through a comprehensive literature review of articles published from 2000-2019, we identified 166 measures that provided validity claims and evidence to varying degrees. Findings overall suggest that validity evidence can be more robust within measures of RUME constructs, although there are examples of rigorous validity arguments. Of the validity evidence, the major sources of validity were reliability, test content, and internal structure. We report on the number of sources of validity, by construct, and the types of evidence to support the validity claims.
