The Assessment of Academic Self-Concept and Motivation (AASCM) was developed in accordance with motivational systems theory. This 80-item assessment is home to 16 subscales (with 5 items per subscale); each item is measured using a 7-point Likert scale. The assessment was grouped according to 4 high school domains: cognitive, social, extracurricular, and personal. The 16 subscales are comprised of 4 measures: cognitive ability, cognity importance, social control, and personal environment, each falling under each of the 4 high school domains.The linked article provides instrument documentation

The Academic Self-Description Questionnaire tests students' academic self-concept, as described by the model put forth by Marsh/Shavelson. Seeking information on self-concept by academic subject and grade, this questionnaire uses a 6-item self-concept scale for different subjects. Each item is measured on a 6-point Likert scale.Two forms of the questionnaire have been developed. The Academic Self-Description Questionnaire (ASDQ-1) is used with Grades 5-6 ad focuses on 12 subjects: Spelling, Reading, Handwriting, Social Studies, Computer Studies, Science, Mathematics, Physical Education, Art

The Teacher Beliefs Interview is a semi-structured, 7-item protocol designed to elicit beginning secondary science teachers' beliefs about teaching, learning, and students in mathematics and science classes.The linked and attached article provides both the Teacher Beliefs Interview and its documentation.Authors provide instrument validity and/or reliability information.

This Toolkit for Gender Indicators in Engineering, Science and Technology, designed for guidance in collecting sex-disaggregated data in scientific and technological activities, aims at helping decision-makers, researchers, and practitioners understand gender issues better and formulate successful policy and programming. It intends to promote a common approach in the systematic collection of sex-disaggregated data in science and technology.In addition to guidance in collecting data, each Toolkit provides an overview of the participation of women in STEM fields, both in industrialized and

The Science Teaching Efficacy Belief Instrument (STEBI) is used in many studies to measure science teaching self-efficacy and outcome expectancy in preservice elementary teachers. This 25-item instrument uses a 5-point Likert scale. The STEBI-A is the version recommended for use with in-service teachers; the STEBI-B is the version recommended for use with pre-service teachers. Attached and linked are both versions of the STEBI as well as its documentation. Authors provide instrument validity and/or reliability information.

The Teacher Belief Inventory (TBI) is an instrument for measuring the degree to which pre-service teachers manifest a theoretical or practical orientation toward educational problems. The TBI consists is 25 pairs of statements which cover 6 areas of educational practice: planning, instruction, classroom management, progress monitoring, clinical assistance, and caring for students. One statement in each pair represents a theoretical approach to problem solving, while the other statement represents a practical approach. The link and attached provide the TBI and its documentation.

The STEM Semantics Survey measures student interest in science, technology, engineering and mathematics as well as interest in STEM careers. The survey is comprised of five scales each with five items measured on a 7-point scale. The STEM Semantic Survey is appropriate for administration to middle school students and teachers. The link below provides access to the instrument as well as information about the instrument. Authors provide instrument validity and/or reliability information.

The Scientific Attitudes Inventory II (SAI II) assesses students' interest in science, their attitudes toward science, their views of scientists, and their desire to become scientists. The 40-item SAI II includes position statements of attitudes assessed and attitude statements that were originally included in the original SAI, with changes made only to improve readability and to eliminate gender-biased language. All items use a 5-point Likert scale. The linked article provides instrument documentation for the SAI II.Authors provide instrument validity and/or reliability information.

The Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking (TTCT) are the most widely used tests of their kind since testing only requires the examinee to reflect upon their life experiences. These tests invite examinees to draw and give a title to their drawings (pictures) or to write questions, reasons, consequences and different uses for objects (words). These instruments have been used for identification of the creatively gifted and as a part of gifted matrices in states and districts in the USA, especially in multicultural settings, and for special populations around the world.
