Brooks This study assesses the parameter recovery accuracy of MML and two MCMC methods, Gibbs and HMC, under the four-parameter unidimensional binary item response function. Data were simulated under the fully crossed design with three sample size levels (1,000, 2,500 and 5,000 respondents) and two types of latent trait distribution (normal and negatively skewed). Results indicated that in general, MML took a more substantive impact of latent trait skewness but also absorbed the momentum from sample size increase to improve its performance more strongly than MCMC.

  • JMETRIK: Classical Test Theory and Item Response Theory Data Analysis Software
    ISSN: 1309 – 6575 Eğitimde ve Psikolojide Ölçme ve Değerlendirme Dergisi Journal of Measurement and Evaluation in Education and Psychology 2019; 10(2);165-178 JMETRIK: Classical Test Theory and Item Response Theory Data Analysis Software Gökhan AKSU* Cem Oktay GÜZELLER** Mehmet Taha ESER*** Abstract The aim of this study is to introduce the jMetric program which is one of the open source programs that can be used in the context of Item Response Theory and Classical Test Theory. In this context, the interface of the program, importing data to the program, a sample analysis, installing the jmetrik and support for the program are discussed. In sample analysis, the answers given by a total of 500 students from state and private schools, to a 10-item math test were analyzed to see whether they shows differentiating item functioning according to the type of school they attend. As a result of the analysis, it was found that two items were showing medium-level Differential Item Functioning (DIF). As a result of the study, it was found that the jMetric program, which is capable of performing Item Response Theory (IRT) analysis for two-category and multi-category items, is open to innovations, especially because it is open-source, and that researchers can easily add the suggested codes to the program and thus the program can be improved. In addition, an advantage of the program is producing visual results related to the analysis through the item characteristic curves. Keywords: jMetrik, item response theory, classical test theory, differential item functioning. INTRODUCTION For researchers nowadays, technology has almost the same meaning as the software that they use every day.

    Psychometrics Denny Borsboom and Dylan Molenaar, University of Amsterdam, Amsterdam, The Netherlands Ó 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. This article is a revision of the previous edition article by J.O. Ramsay, volume 18, pp. 12416–12422, Ó 2001, Elsevier Ltd. Abstract Psychometrics is a scientific discipline concerned with the construction of measurement models for psychological data. In these models, a theoretical construct (e.g., intelligence) is systematically coordinated with observables (e.g., IQ scores). This is often done through latent variable models, which represent the construct of interest as a latent variable that acts as the common determinant of a set of test scores. Important psychometric questions include (1) how much information about the latent variable is contained in the data (measurement precision), (2) whether the test scores indeed measure the intended construct (validity), and (3) to what extent the test scores function in the same way in different groups (measurement invariance). Recent developments have focused on extending the basic latent variable model for more complex research designs and on implementing psychometric models in freely available software. Definition led to questions that inspired the birth of psychometric theory as we currently know it: how should we analyze Psychometrics is a scientific discipline concerned with the psychological test data? Which properties determine the question of how psychological constructs (e.g., intelligence, quality of a psychological test? How may we find out neuroticism, or depression) can be optimally related to observ- whether a test is suited for its purpose? ables (e.g., outcomes of psychological tests, genetic profiles, Two important properties of tests were almost immediately neuroscientific information).

  • Monte Carlo Simulation Studies in Item Response Theory with the R Programming Language
    ISSN: 1309 – 6575 Eğitimde ve Psikolojide Ölçme ve Değerlendirme Dergisi Journal of Measurement and Evaluation in Education and Psychology 2017; 8(3);266-287 Monte Carlo Simulation Studies in Item Response Theory with the R Programming Language R Programlama Dili ile Madde Tepki Kuramında Monte Carlo Simülasyon Çalışmaları Okan BULUT* Önder SÜNBÜL** Abstract Monte Carlo simulation studies play an important role in operational and academic research in educational measurement and psychometrics. Item response theory (IRT) is a psychometric area in which researchers and practitioners often use Monte Carlo simulations to address various research questions. Over the past decade, R has been one of the most widely used programming languages in Monte Carlo studies. R is a free, open-source programming language for statistical computing and data visualization. Many user-created packages in R allow researchers to conduct various IRT analyses (e.g., item parameter estimation, ability estimation, and differential item functioning) and expand these analyses to comprehensive simulation scenarios where the researchers can investigate their specific research questions. This study aims to introduce R and demonstrate the design and implementation of Monte Carlo simulation studies using the R programming language. Three IRT-related Monte Carlo simulation studies are presented. Each simulation study involved a Monte Carlo simulation function based on the R programming language. The design and execution of the R commands is explained in the context of each simulation study. Key Words: Psychometrics, measurement, IRT, simulation, R. Öz Eğitimde ölçme ve psikometri alanlarında yapılan akademik ve uygulamaya dönük araştırmalarda Monte Carlo simülasyon çalışmaları önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Psikometrik çalışmalarda araştırmacıların Monte Carlo simülasyonlarına sıklıkla başvurduğu temel konulardan birisi Madde Tepki Kuramı’dır (MTK).

  • DETERS, LAUREN BF, Ph.D. Analysis of the Schizotypal
    DETERS, LAUREN B. F., Ph.D. Analysis of the Schizotypal Ambivalence Scale. (2017) Directed by Dr. John Willse, 108 pp. The purpose of this study was threefold: a) to provide a thorough modern measurement example in a field where it is more limited in use, b) to investigate the psychometric properties of the Schizotypal Ambivalence Scale (SAS) through IRT measurement models, and c) to use the evaluation of the psychometric properties of the SAS to identify evidence for adherence to the relevant guidelines outlined in the Standards for Educational and Psychological Testing (hereafter Standards; AERA, APA, & NCME, 2014). Together, these goals were to contribute to the argument that the SAS is a robust measure of the ambivalence construct. An archived sample of over 7,000 undergraduate students was used to conduct all analyses. Comparison of eigenvalue ratios indicated that the SAS data could be interpreted as essential unidimensional; however, results from the DIMTEST procedure (Stout, 2006) suggested a departure from unidimensionality. Results from the analysis provided adequate evidence for Standard 1.13 (AERA, APA, & NCME, 2014). The data were modeled via 1PL, 2PL, and 3PL models, and the 2PL model best fit the data. Examination of item-level statistics indicated that items 4, 8, 10, and 15 were endorsed more frequently than other items, and that items 2, 3, 9, 14, and 19 were the most discriminating. Items 7, 15, and 18 were flagged for possible misfit. Results from the analysis of local independence revealed that many item pairs, particularly items 10 through 16, may have violated the assumption of local independence.

Welcome, friends and colleagues, to the 2018 NCME Annual Meeting. We are pleased to present you with this year’s NCME program. Our goal in putting together this slate of sessions has been balance: we have sought to represent research from different testing contexts, from a wide range of perspectives, from behind-the-scenes test development efforts across topics in our field to activities that advance the ways that tests and test results can be made accessible and useful to stakeholders. This year’s conference theme of “Here and There and Back Again: Making Assessment a Stronger Force for Positive Impact on Teaching and Learning” seeks to cultivate the interplay between testing (in all its forms) and the processes of instruction and learning. Carrying on with NCME’s expanding consideration of issues relating to classroom assessment, this year’s program features several invited sessions related to this important topic. On Saturday, April 14, at 10:35am, The Past, Present, and Future of Curriculum-Based Measurement will be discussed, reviewing 30+ years of research in the areas of reading, mathematics, content areas, and writing, and a discussion of future directions and challenges for CBM. On Sunday morning at 10:35am, speakers Joanna Gorin, Margaret Heritage, and James Pellegrino will take on The Positive Impact of Assessment, in a conversation about ways that assessment has been a positive impact on teaching and learning as well as ways that it could become a more positive influence in the future.
