Abstract

The purpose of this study was to establish construct validity of a college and career readiness measure using a sample of youth with (n = 356) and without (n = 1,599) disabilities from five high schools across three U.S. states. We established content validity through expert item review, structural validity through initial field-testing, and convergent validity by correlating domain scores with school academic and behavioral data. A four-factor measurement model emerged representing the domains Ownership of Learning, Academic Engagement and Processes, Interpersonal Engagement, and Career Development. Domain scores were significantly correlated with achievement, college admission exam scores, and attendance. Implications for research and practice with an emphasis on transition service delivery via multi-tiered systems of support are discussed.

建立青少年大学与职业准备知觉测量的构念效度
本研究的目的是利用来自美国三个州的五所高中的残疾青年(n = 356)和非残疾青年(n = 1599)样本,建立大学和职业准备测量的结构效度。我们通过专家项目审查建立内容效度,通过初始现场测试建立结构效度,并通过将领域分数与学校学术和行为数据相关联来建立收敛效度。在学习自主性、学术投入与过程、人际投入和职业发展四个维度上建立了四因素测量模型。领域分数与学业成就、高考成绩、出勤率显著相关。对研究和实践的影响,重点是通过多层次的支持系统的过渡服务交付进行了讨论。
