Using Multiple-Variable Matching to Identify EFL Ecological Sources of Differential Item Functioning
Context is a vague notion with numerous building blocks making language test scores inferences quite convoluted. This study has made use of a model of item responding that has striven to theorize the contextual infrastructure of differential item functioning (DIF) research and help specify the sources of DIF. Two steps were taken in this research: first, to identify DIF by gender grouping via l...

15 صفحه اولAssessment of differential item functioning in the Perceived Stress Scale-10.
DiVerential item functioning is the degree to which items that comprise a measurement scale are systematically related to various exogenous variables (for example, sex, race, etc) after conditioning on the latent variable of interest, which is often represented by the total scale score. When an item functions diVerentially with respect to an exogenous variable and the source of this diVerential...
متن کاملMEASURING AND DETECTING DIFFERENTIAL ITEM FUNCTIONING IN CRITERION-REFERENCED LICENSING TEST A Theoretic Comparison of Methods
The validity of a measurement instrument depends on the quality of the items included in the instrument. The overall aim was to compare methods for detecting and measuring differential item functioning, DIF, in order to find a suitable method for examining DIF in a dichotomously scored criterion-referenced licensing test. The methods were discussed with respect to whether they are parametric, t...
متن کاملDifferential Item Functioning (DIF) in Terms of Gender in the Reading Comprehension Subtest of a High-Stakes Test
Validation is an important enterprise especially when a test is a high stakes one. Demographic variables like gender and field of study can affect test results and interpretations. Differential Item Functioning (DIF) is a way to make sure that a test does not favor one group of test takers over the others. This study investigated DIF in terms of gender in the reading comprehension subtest (35 i...
