| Summary: | This book describes item analysis and test reliability and teaches readers SAS programming to score tests, perform item analysis, and estimate reliability. Maximizing flexibility, the scoring and analysis programs enable readers to analyze tests with multiple versions, define alternate correct responses for selected items, and repeat the scoring with selected items deleted. Readers will be guided step-by-step on how to design multiple-choice items, use analysis to improve tests, and even detect cheating on students' submitted multiple-choice tests. Other subjects addressed include reading in data from a variety of sources (text files and Excel workbooks), detecting errors in the input data, and producing class rosters in printed form or Excel workbooks. Also included is a chapter on IRT, widely used in education to calibrate and evaluate items in tests in education such as the SAT and GRE, with instructions for running the new SAS procedure PROC IRT. -- |
