Q

TEST DESIGN TO IMPROVE VALIDITY

A

1.What is the purpose of the test?
2.How well do the instructional objectives
selected for the test represent the
instructional goals?
3. Which test item format will best measure the
achievement of each objective?

Q

It is determined by administering the
same test twice to the same group of students with any time interval between tests.
- Measure of stability

A

TEST-RETEST METHOD

17
Q

It is determined by administering two different but equivalent forms of test to the same group of students with close intervals between tests.
- Measure of equivalence

A

EQUIVALENT- FORM METHOD

18
Q

It is determined by administering the test once to the same group of students. Scores two equivalent halves
of the test. To split the test into halves that are
equivalent, the usual procedure is to score the even-numbered and odd-numbered separately.

A

SPLIT-HALF METHOD

19
Q

it indicates the degree
to which consistent results are obtained from two halves of
the test.

A

Measure of internal consistency (SPLIT-HALF METHOD)

20
Q

It is determined by administering the test
once, then correlate the proportion/percentage of
the students passing and not passing a given item. Measure of internal consistency

A

KUDER-RICHARDSON FORMULA

21
Q

Factors affecting Reliability

A

1.Length of the test
2.Moderate item difficulty
3.Objective scoring
4.Heterogeneity of the student group
5.Limited time
