Unpacking the personality–cognitive ability link: a cross-national facet-level analysis of the Big Five
Abstract Background Numerous studies have demonstrated robust—albeit modest—associations between personality and cognitive ability, with a shared variance of 5–10%. Previous research has largely focused on global personality dimensions, such as the Big Five. Recent studies suggest that narrower…

When the sandwich makes you hesitate, replicate: on sampling variance estimation of multilevel models under complex sample design
Abstract Large-scale surveys routinely rely on complex sample designs, necessitating special consideration of sampling variance estimation in multilevel models (MLM). While the sandwich estimator is widely used for this purpose, its implementation, particularly regarding stratification and…

Detecting non-uniform differential item functioning in response time through linear regression
Abstract Recent research has expanded beyond investigating differential item functioning (DIF) in response score data to examine DIF in response times. However, studies on response time-based DIF have predominantly focused on uniform DIF, with non-uniform DIF receiving limited attention. This study…

The Goldilocks dilemma: gendered patterns of social media usage and adolescent life satisfaction across OECD countries
Abstract Purpose The escalating prevalence of social media usage (SMU) among adolescents coincides with a concerning decline in their life satisfaction globally. While public and scientific discourse vigorously debates the impact of SMU on well-being, existing research offers mixed evidence, often…

Measurement invariance in the enjoyment of reading across grades measured by IRT and DIF analysis
Abstract When measuring a phenomena across different grades it is important that the instrument measures the same way by being perceived in the same manner no matter what grade. Especially if the phenomena is a concept that should be universal and therefore independent of other circumstances, such…

Parental education, home resources, gender, and academic achievement: a multilevel analysis of GCC and Asia–Pacific students in TIMSS 2023
Abstract Background Student achievement is shaped by family background, gender, migration status, and school context, yet little research has compared how these factors operate across distinct world regions. This study examines how parental education, educational resources, study supports, gender…

Assessing multilevel mediation and confidence intervals in the 2–2–1 model with plausible values: simulation and recommendations
Abstract Mediation analysis in large-scale assessments often involves a multilevel structure, where students are nested within classrooms or schools. In such a context, multilevel structural equation modeling (MSEM) provides a flexible framework for estimating and testing the mediation process…

Academic resilience in 75 education systems: how operationalization and threshold choices shape findings on protective factors
Abstract Background Academic resilience—students’ capacity to succeed despite socioeconomic disadvantage—is widely studied, but little consensus exists on how it should be operationalized. Inconsistent definitions make it difficult to compare findings across studies and to draw conclusions about…
