testactually represent the latent construct instead of being an artifact of rater discrepancies [21]. Thispaper argues that the MFRM provides necessary evidence toward the validity of inferences thatcan be made regarding student learning outcomes in engineering education.MethodsParticipantsA total of 113 students were enrolled in an undergraduate Material and Energy Balance chemicalengineering course as part of a control cohort (23 students; 22% female) and a treatment cohort(93 students; 41% female) at two Midwest Universities. Table 1 shows different distributions forhighest mathematics courses completed by cohort. This discrepancy can be explained as aconsequence of the course sequence occurring in the sophomore year for the control cohort (falland
