The classification problem in educational testing is a decision problem. One must assign subjects to one of several available treatments on the basis of test scores, where the success of each treatment is measured by a different criterion. Examples of classification decisions include individualized instruction, counseling, and clinical settings.…

The theoretical differences between the traditional definition of dimensionality and the more recently defined notion of essential dimensionality are presented. Monte Carlo simulations are used to demonstrate the utility of W. F. Stout's procedure to assess the essential unidimensionality of the latent space underlying a set of terms. The…

Coovert, Michael D.; And Others – 1988
Arguing that sufficient theory exists about the interplay between human information processing, computer systems, and the demands of various tasks to construct useful theories of human-computer interaction, this study presents a structural model of human-computer interaction and reports the results of various statistical analyses of this model.…

A set procedure developed in this study is useful in determining sample size, based on specification of linear contrasts involving certain formula treatments. (Author/DEP)

McArthur, David L. – 1981
Item bias, when present in a multiple-choice test, can be detected by appropriate analyses of the persons x items scoring matrix. Five related schemes for the statistical analysis of bias were applied to a widely used, primary skills multiple-choice test which was administered in either its English- or Spanish-language version at each of the two…

Brennan, Robert L. – 1981
This handbook treats a restricted set of statistical procedures for addressing some of the most prevalent technical issues that arise in domain-referenced testing. The procedures discussed here were chosen because they do not necessitate extensive computations. The five major sections of the paper cover: (1) item analysis procedures for using data…

Powers, Stephen; Gallas, Edwin J. – 1980
Test scores for fall and spring administrations for two consecutive years for Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) Title I students in the Tucson Unified School District are presented and compared. The students were given out-of-level tests: the 138 seventh-grade students and 106 eighth-grade students were given Level 2 of the…

AN ATTEMPT IS MADE TO ESTABLISH A THEORETICAL FOUNDATION FOR GROUP PROPERTY AND LIABILITY INSURANCE AND TO ADVANCE THE GENERAL HYPOTHESIS THAT THE PRINCIPLES USED IN INSTALLING AND ADMINISTERING GROUP LIFE AND HEALTH INSURANCE ARE APPLICABLE TO THE INSTALLATION AND ADMINISTRATION OF GROUP PROPERTY AND LIABILITY INSURANCE. A SURVEY WAS CONDUCTED TO…

THREE STRUCTURED Q SORTS CONTAINING LIBERAL, CONSERVATIVE, PROGRESSIVE, AND TRADITIONALIST STATEMENTS ENABLED THE INVESTIGATOR TO TEST THE HYPOTHESIS THAT INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE LIBERAL IN THEIR SOCIAL ATTITUDES WILL TEND TO BE PROGRESSIVE IN THEIR EDUCATIONAL ATTITUDES, WHEREAS INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE CONSERVATIVE IN THEIR SOCIAL ATTITUDES WILL TEND TO…

Convey, John J. – 1979
The testing of a priori contrasts, post hoc contrasts, and experimental error rates are discussed. Methods for controlling the experimental error rate for a set of a priori contrasts tested simultaneously have been developed by Dunnett, Dunn, Sidak, and Krishnaiah. Each of these methods is discussed and contrasted as to applicability, power, and…

Myers, Barbara E.; Pohlmann, John T. – 1979
A procedure was developed within hypothesis-testing logic that allows researchers to support a hypothesis that has traditionally been the statistical or null hypothesis. Four activities involved in attainment of this goal were discussed: (1) development of statistical logic needed to define the sampling distribution associated with the hypothesis…

This study tests the following hypotheses concerning the job creativity of managers: (1) There is a significant relationship between psychological test scores secured on subjects 15 to 20 years ago and creative performance on the job today, (2) there is a significant relationship between biographical information secured from subjects at the time…

Myers, Charles T. – 1975
Fairness or unfairness may be an attribute of a test per se, or of its use, or of its statistical treatment. An hypothetical situation designed to be intrinsically fair and unbiased is used to show that analysis of covariance as a statistical method may introduce bias to the treatment of test scores. In contrast, equipercentile equating methods…

Guay, Roland B.; McCabe, George P. – 1978
The Chi-Square Test for Hierarchical Dependency (THD) is presented. The THD tests the hypothesis that all members of a population who possess a certain skill are a subset of the members who possess another skill. This hypothesis is basic to the writings of several prominent theorists, such as Gagne and Piaget. The THD is designed as an improvement…

An interactive test analysis system was developed which interfaces a 3M DATRONICS system with a XEROX Sigma 9 computer. The computer programs were written in A Programming Language (APL). The current implementation of the program is characterized by its capability to: read responses from a DATRONIC answer sheet; allow the faculty member the option…
