BRIZUELA RODRIGUEZ, Armel. Construction and Validation of a Rubric for Measuring Writing in University Students. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2016, vol.15, n.1, pp.349-360. ISSN 1657-9267. https://doi.org/10.11144/Javeriana.upsy15-1.cvrm.
This article describes the process of construction and validation of a rubric to measure the writing of first-year university students. 117 essays written by Spanish Philology students (75 women and 42 men) of the University of Costa Rica were collected. Two evaluators, based on a rubric, rated the compositions after which different raters agreement coefficients were calculated to assess the technical quality of the rubric. Among the most important results, a 90% of absolute agreement was observed [± 3 errors] in most of the areas evaluated. On the other hand, small and moderate correlations between the aspects included in the rubric were observed. From these results the utility of using text linguistics as a theoretical basis for constructing written expression rubrics are discussed.
