Militsa G. Ivanova; Hanna Eklöf; Michalis P. Michaelides – Journal of Applied Testing Technology, 2025
Digital administration of assessments allows for the collection of process data indices, such as response time, which can serve as indicators of rapid-guessing and examinee test-taking effort. Setting a time threshold is essential to distinguish effortful from effortless behavior using item response times. Threshold identification methods may…

A Sequential Bayesian Changepoint Detection Procedure for Aberrant Behaviors in Computerized Testing
Jing Lu; Chun Wang; Jiwei Zhang; Xue Wang – Grantee Submission, 2023
Changepoints are abrupt variations in a sequence of data in statistical inference. In educational and psychological assessments, it is pivotal to properly differentiate examinees' aberrant behaviors from solution behavior to ensure test reliability and validity. In this paper, we propose a sequential Bayesian changepoint detection algorithm to…

Zehner, Fabian; Goldhammer, Frank; Lubaway, Emily; Sälzer, Christine – Education Inquiry, 2019
In 2015, the "Programme for International Student Assessment" (PISA) introduced multiple changes in its study design, the most extensive being the transition from paper- to computer-based assessment. We investigated the differences between German students' text responses to eight reading items from the paper-based study in 2012 to text…

Yamamoto, Kentaro; He, Qiwei; Shin, Hyo Jeong; von Davier, Mattias – ETS Research Report Series, 2017
Approximately a third of the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) items in the core domains (math, reading, and science) are constructed-response items and require human coding (scoring). This process is time-consuming, expensive, and prone to error as often (a) humans code inconsistently, and (b) coding reliability in…

Sahin, Füsun – ProQuest LLC, 2017
Examining the testing processes, as well as the scores, is needed for a complete understanding of validity and fairness of computer-based assessments. Examinees' rapid-guessing and insufficient familiarity with computers have been found to be major issues that weaken the validity arguments of scores. This study has three goals: (a) improving…

Zehner, Fabian; Sälzer, Christine; Goldhammer, Frank – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2016
Automatic coding of short text responses opens new doors in assessment. We implemented and integrated baseline methods of natural language processing and statistical modelling by means of software components that are available under open licenses. The accuracy of automatic text coding is demonstrated by using data collected in the "Programme…
