Session Type: Symposium
This symposium builds on the work from the the National Science Foundation funded the conference Validity Evidence for Measurement in Mathematics Education (V-M2Ed). We will first present a review of the literature on argument-based approaches to measure validation, followed by five examples of argument-based validation studies for instruments used in mathematics education research and practice. Together, the five papers (1) provide models for the use of arguments as a measurement validation methodology, (2) highlight affordances and constraints of argument-based approaches to validation, and (3) posit suggestions for structuring arguments. Following the five papers, the discussant will facilitate discussion between the panelists and audience on arguments as a measurement validation methodology.
