Abstract

ABSTRACT Rater training is essential in ensuring the quality of constructed response scoring. Most of the current knowledge about rater training comes from experimental contexts with an emphasis on short-term effects. Few sources are available for empirical evidence on whether and how raters become more accurate as they gain scoring experiences or what long-term effects training can have. In this study, we addressed this research gap by tracking how the accuracies of new raters change through experience and by examining the impact of an additional training session on their accuracies in scoring calibration and monitoring essays. We found that, on average, raters’ accuracy improved with scoring experience and that individual raters differed in their accuracy trajectories. The estimated average effect of the training was an approximately six percent increase in the calibration essay accuracy. On the other hand, we observed a smaller impact on the monitoring essay accuracy. Our follow-up analysis showed that this differential impact of the additional training on the calibration and monitoring essay accuracy could be accounted for by successful gatekeeping through calibration.
操作评分经验和额外的指导培训对评分员论文评分准确性的影响
评分员培训是保证构建反应评分质量的必要条件。目前大多数关于评估师训练的知识都来自实验背景,强调短期效果。关于评分员在获得评分经验后是否以及如何变得更准确,或者训练会产生什么长期影响,很少有经验证据可供参考。在这项研究中,我们通过跟踪新评分者的准确性如何随着经验而变化,以及通过检查额外的培训课程对评分校准和监控论文准确性的影响,解决了这一研究差距。我们发现,平均而言,评分者的准确性随着评分经验的增加而提高,而且个别评分者的准确性轨迹有所不同。估计培训的平均效果是校准论文准确性增加了大约6%。另一方面,我们观察到对监控论文准确性的影响较小。我们的后续分析表明,这种额外培训对校准和监测论文准确性的差异影响可以通过校准成功把关来解释。

期刊介绍: Because interaction between the domains of research and application is critical to the evaluation and improvement of new educational measurement practices, Applied Measurement in Education" prime objective is to improve communication between academicians and practitioners. To help bridge the gap between theory and practice, articles in this journal describe original research studies, innovative strategies for solving educational measurement problems, and integrative reviews of current approaches to contemporary measurement issues. Peer Review Policy: All review papers in this journal have undergone editorial screening and peer review.
