This briefing note, which focuses on the measurement of violence against women with disability, is one in a series of methodological briefing notes for strengthening the measurement and data collection of violence against particular groups of women or specific aspects of violence against women. These briefing notes are meant for researchers, national statistics offices and others involved in data collection on violence against women.
The overarching goal of the Global Report on Health Equity for Persons with Disabilities is to make health equity for persons with disability a global health priority. Specifically, the report aims to: - Bring health equity for persons with disabilities to the attention of decision-makers in the health sector - Document evidence on health inequities and country experiences on approaches to advance health equity - Make recommendations that stimulate country-level action. The report is targeted at decision-makers at all levels of the health sector, and is being developed in collaboration with Member States, civil society including representative organizations of persons with disabilities, academic institutions, technical experts, United Nations entities and other health sector partners.
As part of the UN Women-WHO Joint Programme on Strengthening Methodologies and Measurement and Building National Capacities for Violence Against Women Data (Joint Programme on VAW Data), WHO/HRP has been leading work to strengthen the measurement of disability and violence against women. WHO/HRP undertook a scoping review to explore how disability and violence are currently being measured in the existing evidence-base. In November 2022, WHO/HRP convened this Expert Group meeting. Technical and advocacy experts participated in the meeting, including women with disabilities, to develop concrete recommendations for approaches and measures to better capture the experiences of violence among women with disabilities. This meeting summary compiles key points from the presentations and discussions at the Expert Meeting. Key recommendations developed during the Expert Meeting are included following the summary.
This volume provides an informed review of the accomplishments of the Washington Group on Disability Statistics (WG) in the provision of international data and statistics on disability. It does so within the context of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. The volume includes a description of the development and testing of a short set of questions for Censuses, now used in approximately 29 countries and recommended in the U.N.’s Principles and Recommendations for Population and Housing Censuses: The 2020 Round, which includes disability as a core topic to be collected in censuses. It discusses the experiences of several countries on the use of the WG questions and how this has impacted on national agendas in the area of disability. It follows the development and testing of an extended set of questions for use in national surveys other than censuses and examines the challenges of translation and the importance of generating comparable question sets in different languages and within different cultures. It studies the examination of cognitive testing techniques in a variety of countries, and presents the results of the first round of censuses in 2010 in countries using the six question set. The volume includes discussions of the new development of question modules on a broad range of child disability and functioning, and the environmental contexts of participation that are part of the current work of the WG. In addition, it contains a reflection on the use of the WG’s functionality approach to identifying disabilities by humanitarian agencies to identify disabilities in populations of displaced persons. A thoughtful conclusion addresses what the development of cross-nationally comparable data can mean for the improvement of circumstances for all persons with disabilities.

Test fairness is a moral imperative for both the makers and the users of tests. This book focuses on methods for detecting test items that function differently for different groups of examinees and on using this information to improve tests. Of interest to all testing and measurement specialists, it examines modern techniques used routinely to insure test fairness. Three of these relevant to the book's contents are: * detailed reviews of test items by subject matter experts and members of the major subgroups in society (gender, ethnic, and linguistic) that will be represented in the examinee population * comparisons of the predictive validity of the test done separately for each one of the major subgroups of examinees * extensive statistical analyses of the relative performance of major subgroups of examinees on individual test items.
First thorough treatment of multidimensional item response theory Description of methods is supported by numerous practical examples Describes procedures for multidimensional computerized adaptive testing
This book integrates work from moral philosophy, moral psychology, I-O psychology, political and social economy, and business into a "framework for taking moral action" and presents a practical model for ethical decision making.
