MoKoMasch - subproject Psychometrics and Evaluation

Within the framework of the BMBF research program KoKoHS, the joint project MoKoMasch (Modeling the competencies of university students studying mechanical engineering in the areas of construction, design, and production technique) aimed to produce a competency model and instruments to measure the competencies of machine engineering students. The goal was to assess the overall competencies that are determined by content-specific knowledge and problem-solving skills. For this purpose, the type of content-specific knowledge, its internal network connections, and the way it corresponds to the problem-solving ability was examined. The Friedrich Schiller University's designated subproject “Psychometrics and Evaluation” was responsible for the statistical analyses.

The data collected in an exam on the subject of “Process Dynamics” at the TU Dortmund (N = 172) can be made available in documented form for research and teaching upon request (Please send an email to Andreas.Frey@psych.uni-frankfurt.de ).
