Processing of Test Matrices with Guessing Correction
نویسنده
چکیده
It is suggested to insert into test matrix 1s for correct responses, 0s for response refusals, and negative corrective elements for incorrect responses. With the classical test theory approach test scores of examinees and items are calculated traditionally as sums of matrix elements, organized in rows and columns. Correlation coefficients are estimated using correction coefficients. In item response theory approach examinee and item logits are estimated using maximum likelihood method and probabilities of all matrix elements.

The Impact of Correction for Guessing Formula on MC and Yes/No Vocabulary Tests' Scores
A standard correction for random guessing (cfg) formula on multiple-choice and Yes/Noexaminations was examined retrospectively in the scores of the intermediate female EFL learners in an English language school. The correctionwas a weighting formula for points awarded for correct answers,incorrect answers, and unanswered questions so that the expectedvalue of the increase in test score due to g...
متن کاملIntroducing a Non-Dichotomous Method for Scoring Selected-Response Tests
The main purpose of this study was to introduce a new non-dichotomous scoring procedure for the multiple-choice test method, called Parledge. The research also aimed to determine Parledge characteristics through a psychometric study comparing it with the “Number Correct” and “Correction for Guessing” scoring methods. There were 35 students participating in the study who were given a vocabulary ...

simulation method (bootstrapping) was used by the authors to estimate the parameters for the statistical test of this hypothesis. Parameters (unspecified) of the bootstrap model are critical because of lack of independence among the four examinations (across the same students) and lack of independence among the corrected and uncorrected multiple-choice tests (across the same criterion variable)...
متن کاملQUANTITATIVE METHODS IN PSYCHOLOGY Correcting Response Measures for Guessing and Partial Information
An experiment or test measuring response choice and response time generates a large pool of correct and error responses. These indicators of mental processing are often more revealing when corrected for guessing. An example drawn from lexical decision making motivates the principles behind correcting proportions, response time moments, distributions and histograms, and response confidence when ...
متن کاملOn the optimal correction of inconsistent matrix equations $AX = B$ and $XC = D$ with orthogonal constraint
This work focuses on the correction of both the coecient and the right hand side matrices of the inconsistent matrix equations $AX = B$ and $XC = D$ with orthogonal constraint. By optimal correction approach, a general representation of the orthogonal solution is obtained. This method is tested on two examples to show that the optimal correction is eective and highly accurate.
