Multidimensional Assessment of Value Added by Teachers to Real-World Outcomes

Broatch, Jennifer; Lohr, Sharon - In: Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics 37 (2012) 2, pp. 256-277

Measuring teacher effectiveness is challenging since no direct estimate exists; teacher effectiveness can be measured only indirectly through student responses. Traditional value-added assessment (VAA) models generally attempt to estimate the value that an individual teacher adds to students'...

Structured additive regression for multicategorical space-time data: a mixed model approach

Kneib, Thomas; Fahrmeir, Ludwig - 2004

4208 In many practical situations, simple regression models suffer from the fact that the dependence of responses on covariates can not be sufficiently described by a purely parametric predictor. For example effects of continuous covariates may be nonlinear or complex interactions between...

Estimating precision, repeatability, and reproducibility from Gaussian and non- Gaussian data: a mixed models approach

Pryseley, Assam; Mintiens, Koen; Knapen, Katia; Stede, … - In: Journal of Applied Statistics 37 (2010) 10, pp. 1729-1747

Quality control relies heavily on the use of formal assessment metrics. In this paper, for the context of veterinary epidemiology, we review the main proposals, precision, repeatability, reproducibility, and intermediate precision, in agreement with ISO (international Organization for...
