Improving Content Knowledge and Comprehension for English Language Learners: Findings From a Randomized Control Trial (2017, background): “Although simple percent agreement is popular, it can be inflated because of chance (Hintze, 2005).”
Evaluating Sensitivity to Behavioral Change Using Direct Behavior Rating Single-Item Scales (2012, background): “Conceptually, Kazdin (2005) suggested answering the following questions: (a) Has change occurred? (b) Is the change reliable? (c) Is it different from what would be expected without intervention? and (d) Are the changes important and make a difference? Although these questions provide a starting poi”
Linking prevention science and social and emotional learning: The Oregon Resiliency Project (2009, background): “…teacher report data in the form of rating scales, direct observation of young children’s social–emotional development over short periods of time has also proven to be problematic and fraught with reliability issues (see Hintze, 2005; Hintze & Mathews, 2004, for key findings related to this issue).”
Examining the Agreement of Direct Behavior Ratings and Systematic Direct Observation Data for On-Task and Disruptive Behavior (2008, methodology): “79, which is considered in the substantial range (Hintze, 2005).”
Generalizability and Dependability of Behavior Assessment Methods to Estimate Academic Engagement: A Comparison of Systematic Direct Observation and Direct Behavior Rating (2010, background): “However, as highlighted by Hintze (2005), although the psychometric properties of some instruments (e.g., intelligence, achievement) have been heavily scrutinized, behavior assessment methods as a whole have not received comparable attention.”
Observing Students in Classroom Settings: A Review of Seven Coding Schemes (2005, background): “Hintze (2005) provides specific guidelines for the selection of appropriate coding schemes.”
Professional Development That Supports the Teaching of Cognitive Reading Strategy Instruction (2010, methodology): “1 The instrument was validated across various times and settings for the purposes of construct development (AERA/ APA/NCME, 1999; Hintze, 2005; Volpe & McConaughy, 2005); this development included input from classroom teachers, field testing across elementary and middle school classrooms, and ongoin”
Concurrent Validity of Office Discipline Referrals and Cut Points Used in Schoolwide Positive Behavior Support (2009, background): “Establishing concurrent validity with a contemporary standardized behavior rating scale with strong psychometric properties would provide evidence for the validity of inferences made from ODRs and suspensions (Hintze, 2005; Kern & Manz, 2004; Rusby et al., 2007).”
