Scale Construction and Halo Effect in Secondary Student Ratings of Teacher Performance

SCALE CONSTRUCTION AND HALO EFFECT IN SECONDARY STUDENT RATINGS OF TEACHER PERFORMANCE Eric Paul ... more SCALE CONSTRUCTION AND HALO EFFECT IN SECONDARY STUDENT RATINGS OF TEACHER PERFORMANCE Eric Paul Rogers Department of Instructional Psychology and Technology Doctor of Philosophy The use of rating scales in the evaluation of secondary teacher performance has been called into question and widely criticized. Of particular concern has been the use of student ratings of teacher performance. A review of instruments and practices used in the rating process reveals serious design flaws that account for the criticisms leveled against the use of rating scales. This study sought to address the limitations evident in previous rating efforts by utilizing a combination of design methodologies and measurement models including elements of Classical Test Theory (CTT), factor analysis, and Item Response Theory (IRT). The IRT model employed was the one-parameter logistic model also known as the Rasch model. Twelve scales were developed consisting of a total of ninety-two items. These scales were deve...
