ALMEIDA, Luis. Psychometric Properties of the Assessment Literacy Admeasurement Questionnaire (QALA). Rev. Port. de Educação [online]. 2023, vol.36, n.1, e23007.  Epub 31-Mar-2023. ISSN 0871-9187.  https://doi.org/10.21814/rpe.24079.

Assessment literacy is a fundamental characteristic that every teacher should have, since student’s assessment is closely related to the entire teaching and learning process, so it should be considered a key element in improving teaching. The aim of this article was to analyse the psychometric properties of an instrument developed to measure assessment literacy of teachers of basic and secondary education: the QALA (Assessment Literacy Admeasurement Questionnaire). The analysis of the psychometric properties of QALA was carried out using the Rasch Model, which is assumed to be a set of statistical techniques that are part of the Item Response Theory (IRT). The results show the good psychometric qualities of QALA, so the instrument seems to be suitable for its purpose, namely to measure the perceptions that teachers have about their knowledge and skills in assessment, on the one hand, and their assessment literacy, on the other.
