We found that heterogeneity of the sample is clearly necessary for the mixture Rasch model approach to standard setting to be useful. While possibly not sufficient to determine passing standards on their own, there may be value in these data-driven models for providing additional validity evidence to support decision-making bodies entrusted with establishing cut scores.

However, SMEs are not typically given the opportunity to provide input on which content standards are most suitable for multiple-choice questions (MCQs). In the present study, we explored the relationship between perceived MCQ suitability for a given content standard and the associated item characteristics. Prior to item writing, we surveyed SMEs on MCQ suitability for each content standard. Following field testing, we then used SMEs’ average ratings for each content standard to predict item characteristics for the tests. We analyzed multilevel models predicting item difficulty (<i>p</i> value), discrimination, and nonfunctioning distractor presence. Items were nested within courses and content standards. There was a curvilinear relationship between SMEs’ ratings and item difficulty such that very low MCQ suitability ratings were predictive of easier items. After controlling for item difficulty, items with higher MCQ suitability ratings had higher discrimination and were less likely to have one or more nonfunctioning distractors. This research has practical implications for optimizing test blueprints. Additionally, psychometricians may use these ratings to better prepare for coaching SMEs during item writing.</p>","PeriodicalId":47345,"journal":{"name":"Educational Measurement-Issues and Practice","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/emip.12570","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46840085","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Clustering analysis under an unsupervised learning technique appears especially promising to detect group collusion.

Random forest ensembles are used to evaluate the accuracy of the clustering and find the important features to classify the aberrant test takers. Testing data from a certification exam is used.

These approaches are, however, limited in that they require a binary decision on whether a response is classified as stemming from NRB; thus ignoring potential classification uncertainty in resulting parameter estimates. We developed a response-time-based probabilistic filtering procedure that overcomes this limitation. The procedure is rooted in the principles of multiple imputation. Instead of creating multiple plausible replacements of missing data, however, multiple data sets are created that represent plausible filtered response data. We propose two different approaches to filtering models, originating in different research traditions and conceptualizations of response-time-based identification of NRB. The first approach uses Gaussian mixture modeling to identify a response time subcomponent stemming from NRB. Plausible filtered data sets are created based on examinees' posterior probabilities of belonging to the NRB subcomponent. The second approach defines a plausible range of response time thresholds and creates plausible filtered data sets by drawing multiple response time thresholds from the defined range. We illustrate the workings of the proposed procedure as well as differences between the proposed filtering models based on both simulated data and empirical data from PISA 2018.</p>","PeriodicalId":47345,"journal":{"name":"Educational Measurement-Issues and Practice","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/emip.12567","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46209020","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
