15 صفحه اولOn the complementarity of classical test theory and item response models: item difficulty estimates and computerized adaptive testing
This study aims to provide statistical evidence of the complementarity between classical test theory and item response models for certain educational assessment purposes. Such complementarity might support, at a reduced cost, future development of innovative procedures for item calibration in adaptive testing. Classical test theory and the generalized partial credit model are applied to tests c...

متن کاملWhat does the Mental Rotation Test Measure? An Analysis of Item Difficulty and Item Characteristics
The present study examined the contributions of various item characteristics to the difficulty of the individual items on the Mental Rotation Test (MRT). Analyses of item difficulties from a large data set of university students were conducted to assess the role of time limitation, distractor type, occlusion, configuration type, and the degree of angular disparity. Results replicated in large p...
متن کاملThe Effect of Item Modality and Note-taking on EFL Learners’ Performance on a Listening Test
The pivotal role of listening comprehension in second/foreign language learning requires that researchers conduct studies which investigate factors that affect test takers’ performances. The present study was set out to examine whether item modality (i.e., written vs. oral items) affects listening comprehension test performance. In addition, it investigated whether allowing test takers to take ...
