Validation of Perceived Ability in Statistical concepts Questionnaire (PASQ) Based on Rasch Measurement Model

This paper describes the process of assessing the unidimensionality and validity of the Perceived Ability in Statistical Concepts Questionnaire (PASQ) based on the Rasch Measurement Model. Students’ perceived ability was measured by a self-developed 30 PASQ items of Likert-scale format comprise...
