    A School Effectiveness Approach to Good Citizenship
    (Springer, Cham, 2021) Treviño Villarreal, Juan Ernesto; Carrasco Ogaz, Diego; López Hornickel, Natalia Verónica; Zúñiga, Carmen Gloria
    Schools are traditionally considered agents of political socialization. However, the school’s capacity to promote citizenry among students is often considered limited, in comparison to the expected influence of the socioeconomic background of students’ families. Using data from IEA’s International Civic and Citizenship Education Study (ICCS), this chapter inquires if schools’ differences are related to students’ citizenship norms endorsement, focusing on the relationship between civic learning opportunities and open classroom discussion of schools on promoting citizenship norms endorsement among students. To this end, a multilevel multinomial base category logit model is used, including students’ and schools’ characteristics specifying citizenship norms profiles as the dependent variable. Citizenship norms profiles is a nominal variable, that summarize the way students endorse 12 different citizenship norms, across countries. Results suggest that schools explain a non-ignorable portion of the variance of students’ citizenship norms endorsement. Additionally, civic learning opportunities and open classroom discussion are school practices that promote a comprehensive endorsement of citizenship norms, above students’ socioeconomic background, and students’ civic background across countries. Implications for civic education are discussed.

    Angry and Afraid: Exploring the Impact of Mixed Emotional Reactions to Hate Crimes With LGBT+ and Muslim Communities
    (2024) Paterson, Jenny L.; Walters, Mark A.; Brown, Rupert; Carrasco Ogaz, Diego
    Hate crimes send messages of intolerance that can cause significant emotional and behavioral harm to entire identity groups. Previous research, based on intergroup emotions theory, has helped explain the psychological mechanisms that underpin the indirect effects of anti-LGBT+ hate crime, showing that incidents give rise to perceptions of threat among community members, which in turn elicit certain emotional reactions that trigger specific behavioral outcomes. This article provides two significant contributions to this developing knowledgebase. First, it provides an important replication of the theoretical model with another frequently targeted community: Muslim people. In addition, it offers the first quantitative analysis of how combinations of different emotions trigger discrete behavioral responses in the aftermath of hate crime, thereby providing much-needed nuance to the intergroup emotions theory model. Across two studies (Study 1: N = 589 LGBT+ participants; Study 2: N = 347 Muslim participants), we show that, for both LGBT+ and Muslim participants, indirect experiences of hate crimes are associated with greater perceptions of threat, which are then positively associated with anger, anxiety, and shame, that link to behavioral intentions: avoidance, pro-action, security behaviors, and retaliation. Latent class analyses further revealed that participants’ emotional reactions tend to cluster into four distinct profiles in both communities: people scored mid-range on all emotions, or high anger with low shame, or high anger with high anxiety, or low shame. These combinations had direct implications for intended behaviors across both groups: experiencing high anger with high anxiety was a cogent motivator of action. Most significantly, we provide new insights into how and why different emotions interact to predict both similar and divergent behaviors in the aftermath of hate crime incidents. Our findings yield important new knowledge that holds the potential of shaping both public policies and practices aimed at addressing the impacts of hate crimes.

    Connected or Disconnected? Exploring the Relationship Between Citizenship Norms and Other Citizenship Attitudes in Young People
    (Routledge, 2022) Villalobos, Cristóbal; Carrasco Ogaz, Diego; Miranda Riquelme, Catalina; Morel Rioseco, María Jesús; Treviño Villarreal, Juan Ernesto; Sandoval-Hernández, Andrés
    Citizenship is a complex, multidimensional concept that comprises a broad set of beliefs, values, skills, knowledge, actions, and dispositions. Due to this multiplicity, the relationships between the components of citizenship are not necessarily linear or causal. Using the largest and most recent comparative study on youth citizenship, the 2016 International Civic and Citizenship Education Study, this chapter analyzes the relationship between civic norms and four attitudes: multiculturalism, gender equality, patriotism, and respect for democracy. To differentiate between different types of civic norms, five profiles of eighth-grade students are discussed: (1) comprehensive (students who express that all civic norms are important; (2) duty-based (students who support traditional norms, like obeying the law or respecting authorities); (3) socially engaged (students who support norms oriented toward helping the community and protecting the environment and human rights); (4) monitorial (students who value non-conventional forms of political participation); and (5) anomic (those with the lowest endorsement in all citizenship norms). General trends show that the profiles of civic norms endorsement vary significantly between countries, suggesting that citizenship norms are constructed contextually. There is continued relevance in exploring the contradictory relationship between patriotism and multiculturalism, or gender equality with respect to other civic attitudes.

    Continuation Ratio Model for Polytomous Items Under Complex Sampling Design
    (Springer Cham, 2022) Carrasco Ogaz, Diego; Torres Irribarra, David; González Burgos, Jorge Andrés
    The use of polytomous items as part of background or context questionnaires and complex sampling designs are two features common in international large-scale assessments (ILSA). Popular choices to model polytomous items within ILSA include the partial credit model, the graded response model, and confirmatory factor analysis. However, an absent model in ILSA studies is the continuation ratio model. The continuation ratio model is a flexible alternative and a very extendable response model applicable in different situations. Although existing software can fit this model, not all these tools can incorporate complex sampling design features present in ILSA studies. This study aims to illustrate a method to fit a continuation ratio model including complex sampling design information, thus expanding the modelling tools available for secondary users of large-scale assessment studies.

    Continuation ratio model for polytomous responses with censored like latent classes
    (Springer, 2023) Carrasco Ogaz, Diego; Torres Irribarra, David; González Burgos, Jorge Andrés
    Polytomous item responses are prevalent in background or context questionnaires of International large-scale assessments (ILSA). Responses to these types of instruments can vary in their symmetry or skewness. Zero inflation of responses can lead to biased estimates of item parameters in the response model and also to a downward bias in the conditional model when the zero inflated component is not accounted for in the model. In this paper, we propose to use a mixture continuation ratio response model to approximate the non-normality of the latent variable distribution. We use responses to bullying items from an ILSA study, which typically present positive asymmetry. The present model allows us to distinguish bullying victimization risk profiles among students, retrieve bullying victimization risk scores, and determine the population prevalence of the bullying events. This study also aims to illustrate how to fit a mixture continuation ratio model, including complex sampling design, thus expanding the modeling tools available for secondary users of large-scale assessment studies.

    Good Citizenship for the Next Generation : A Global Perspective Using IEA ICCS 2016 Data
    (IEA, 2021) Treviño, Ernesto; Carrasco, Diego; Villalobos, Cristóbal; Morel, María Jesús; Torres Irribarra, David; López Hornickel, Natalia; Zúñiga, Carmen Gloria; Miranda, Daniel; Miranda, Catalina; Muñoz, Loreto; Pavón Mediano, Andrés; Isac, María Magdalena; Claes, Ellen; Sandoval Hernández, Andrés; Savvides, Nicola; Kennedy, Kerry J.; Kuang, Xiaxoue; Kuang, Xiaoxue; Treviño Villarreal, Juan Ernesto; Carrasco Ogaz, Diego; Claes, Ellen; Kennedy, Kerry J.
    This Open Access book presents an international group of scholars seeking to understand how youth from different cultures relate to modern multidimensional concepts of citizenship, and the roles that education and society have in shaping the views of the world’s future citizens. The book also explores how different aspects of citizenship, such as attitudes towards diverse population groups and concerns for social issues, relate to classical definitions of norm-based citizenship from the political sciences. Authors from Asia, Europe, and Latin America provide a series of in-depth investigations into how concepts of “good citizenship” are shaped in different regions of the globe, using the rich comparative data from the IEA’s International Civic and Citizenship Study (ICCS) 2016. In twelve chapters, the authors review the concept of “good citizenship”; how citizenship norms adherence is configured into profiles across countries; and what country, school, and background factors are related to how students adhere to citizenship norms. Recognizing contingent social and political situations in specific regions of the world, the present books offer six chapters where authors apply their expertise to offer locally relevant and pertinent observations on how young people from diverse cultures understand and relate to different dimensions of citizenship in countries of Asia, Europe, and Latin America. The present book is of relevance for different audiences interested in civic education and political socialization, including social sciences and education, integrating topics from political science, sociology, political psychology, and law

    Indirect effects of bullying on school mathematics achievement in Chile
    (2022) Carrasco Ogaz, Diego; Banerjee, Robin; López Hornickel, Natalia Verónica; Treviño Villarreal, Juan Ernesto
    Students who experience bullying at school present different negative outcomes, including lower academic achievement. However, the process by which bullying is connected to academic achievement is not clear. Using the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) dataset from Chilean schools in 2011, we sought to estimate the indirect effects of bullying on mathematics achievement via two key socio-motivational factors, namely school belonging and students’ engagement. Results of our multilevel latent covariate analyses showed that schools’ bullying rates were predictive of school differences in mathematics achievement, but these effects were explained by broader characteristics of the school environment such as perceived levels of safety and discipline. Crucially, the hypothesized indirect pathway was evident at the within-school level, showing that individual experiences of bullying are related to a poorer sense of belonging with the school as a whole, as well as poorer classroom engagement.

    Movilidad de profesores chilenos
    (2021) Díaz Sacco, Alessandra; López González, Dany; Salas Aguayo, Macarena; Carrasco Ogaz, Diego
    La investigación en torno a la movilidad docente indica que existen altas tasas de rotación durante los primeros años de ejercicio profesional que afectan directamente la efectividad de las escuelas, el aprendizaje de los estudiantes y la equidad educativa. La presente investigación se enfoca en los factores escolares relacionados con la movilidad de los profesores chilenos. Se utilizan los datos de la Encuesta de Idoneidad Docente para seguir a la cohorte de profesores de 2007 a 2018 y se emplea un modelo de historia a eventos multinivel para estudiar la relación entre factores escolares y la movilidad docente. Los resultados indican que las escuelas que presentan mayor rotación son las subvencionadas, las rurales y las que cuentan con mayor concentración de estudiantes vulnerables. La consideración de estos elementos resulta relevante para la formulación de políticas públicas relacionadas con la retención de profesores.

    Profiles of Good Citizenship
    (IEA, 2021) Torres Irribarra, David; Carrasco Ogaz, Diego
    Latent class analysis has been used in previous research to compare the configuration of citizenship norms endorsement among students in different countries. This study fits a different model specification, a homogenous model, in order to produce interpretable and comparable unobserved profiles of citizenship norms in different countries. This analysis was conducted using data from IEA’s International Civic and Citizenship Education Study (ICCS) 2016, which includes responses from students in 24 countries in Europe, Latin America, and Asia. The five-class citizenship norms profiles results and the trade-offs in model specifications are discussed in this chapter. The five-class solution presented here is comparable to previous studies assessing citizenship concepts in various settings

    Students ratings their open classroom discussion
    (2021) Carrasco Ogaz, Diego; Treviño, Ernesto; López Hornickel, Natalia; Castillo González, Carolina
    Open classroom discussion (OPD) is a recognized school practice, that promotes civic knowledge on students. However, the study of its effectiveness includes various methodological challenges. OPD items are reference-shift items, and if their rater-response nature is ignored, researchers may specify a compositional model leading to underestimation. Moreover, OPD scores of schools are subject to students inter rater variability. Common advice in this regard is to exclude groups with low inter-rater agreement. Nevertheless, this recommendation can result into a considerable loss of sample. In this paper, we argue that a within-between model specification is needed to address the first problem. For the second problem, it is proposed to use a dispersion effect model. This later model studies OPD relations to civic knowledge, at conditional levels of students’ lack of agreement on OPD ratings. Caveats on the use of students as raters of school practices are discussed.
