Title of Collection: Middle Grades 

Longitudinal Study of 2016–2017 

(MGLS:2017) Recruitment for Item 

Validation and Operational Field Tests. 

OMB Control Number: 1850–0911. 

Type of Review: A reinstatement of a 

previously approved information 

collection. 

Respondents/Affected Public: 

Individuals. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 8,128. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 1,794. 

Abstract: The Middle Grades 

Longitudinal Study of 2016–2017 

(MGLS:2017) is the first study 

sponsored by the National Center for 

Education Statistics (NCES), within the 

Institute of Education Sciences (IES) of 

the U.S. Department of Education (ED), 

to follow a nationally-representative 

sample of students as they enter and 

move through the middle grades (grades 

6–8). The data collected through 

repeated measures of key constructs will 

provide a rich descriptive picture of the 

academic experiences and development 

of students during these critical years 

and will allow researchers to examine 

associations between contextual factors 

and student outcomes. The study will 

focus on student achievement in 

mathematics and literacy along with 

measures of student socioemotional 

wellbeing and other outcomes. The 

study will also include a special sample 

of students with different types of 

disabilities that will provide descriptive 

information on their outcomes, 

educational experiences, and special 

education services. Baseline data for the 

MGLS: 2017 will be collected from a 

nationally-representative sample of 6th 

grade students in winter of 2017 with 

annual follow-ups in winter 2018 and 

winter 2019 when most of the students 

in the sample will be in grades 7 and 8, 

respectively. This request is to contact 

and recruit public school districts and 

public and private schools to participate 

in the winter 2016 concurrent item 

validation and operational field tests for 

the MGLS:2017. The primary purpose of 

the Item Validation Field Test is to 

determine the psychometric properties 

of items and the predictive potential of 

assessment and survey items so that 

valid, reliable, and useful assessment 

and survey instruments can be 

composed for the main study. The 

primary purposes of the Operational 

Field Test are to obtain information on 

recruiting, particularly for the targeted 

disability groups; on obtaining a 

tracking sample that can be used to 

study mobility patterns in subsequent 

years; and on administrative 

procedures.
