Measurement Invariance of Social and Emotional Learning Measures across Four Administrations

• In Event: Electronic Board Session II

Abstract

We assessed measurement invariance for five social and emotional learning measures across four administrations (2013, 2016, 2019, 2022) of a statewide student survey using RMSEAD for the nested model comparisons with ordinal items. We also estimated standardized mean differences, which indicated sharp post-COVID decline.
