Statistical Inference for Multiple Choice Tests
Finite sample inference procedures are considered for analyzing the observed scores on a multiple choice test with several items, where, for example, the items are dissimilar, or the item responses are correlated. A discrete p-parameter exponential family model leads to a generalized linear model framework and, in a special case, a convenient regression of true score upon observed score. Techni...
متن کاملStatistical Issues on Multiple Choice Tests in Engineering Assessment
This work studies the psychometric properties of the multiple choice tests used to assess skills in Statistics in the Integrated Masters Degree in Engineering and Industrial Management of the University of Minho. The results show the importance of measuring the quality of the instruments to a fair assessment of the students. Moreover, in the Bologna Process context, multiple choice tests in com...
متن کاملRobustness Tests and Statistical Inference
Robustness tests emerged as social scientists’ response to the uncertainty they face in specifying empirical models. We argue that the logic of robustness testing warrants a fundamental change in how researchers make inferences in their analysis of observational data. The dominant conception of robustness, which assesses whether the estimated effects remain statistically significant in all robu...
متن کاملBootstrapping Multiple-Choice Tests
It is very likely that, at least once in their lifetime, everyone has answered a multiplechoice test. Multiple-choice tests are considered an effective technique for knowledge assessment, requiring a short response time and with the possibility of covering a broad set of topics. Nevertheless, when it comes to their creation, it can be a time-consuming and labour-intensive task. Here, the genera...
