    Study Notes

    Test Development

    • The test development process occurs in five stages: test conceptualization, test construction, test tryout, item analysis, and test revision.
    • Preliminary questions to consider before developing a test:
      • What is the test designed to measure?
      • What is the objective of the test?
      • Is there a need for this test?
      • What content will the test score cover?
      • How will the test be administered?
      • What is the ideal format of the test?
      • Should more than one form of the test be developed?
      • What special training will be required of test users?
      • Who benefits from an administration of this test?
      • Is there any potential for harm as a result of an administration of this test?

    Test Conceptualization

    • The beginnings of any published test can probably be traced to thoughts or self-talk.
    • A review of the available literature on existing tests may indicate that such tests leave much to be desired in psychometric soundness.
    • An emerging social phenomenon or pattern of behavior might serve as the stimulus for the development of a new test.

    Scaling Methods

    • Rating Scale: a grouping of words/statements on which judgment of the strength of a particular trait/attitude/emotion is indicated by the test taker.
    • Likert Scale: presents the test taker with five (or four, or seven) options, usually on an agree/disagree or approve/disapprove continuum.
    • Paired Comparisons: test takers are presented with pairs of stimuli, which they are asked to compare, and must choose one over the other.

    Item Writing

    • Refers to the process of writing items to the construct that we intend to measure.
    • Item Pool: refers to the process of writing items to the construct that we intend to measure.
    • Item Format: refers to the process of writing items to the construct that we intend to measure.

    Test Construction

    • Involves writing preliminary items to know what might possibly be the content of the test.
    • A "rough draft" of the test, where content, scaling, and scoring may be tested in a very small group.
    • Standardized tests are required to conduct a pilot study prior to test construction, but for tests used only in small settings, such as a class achievement test, a pilot study is not required.

    Pilot Study

    • A preliminary task surrounding the creation of the prototype of the test.
    • Involves conducting a pilot study to test the content, scaling, and scoring of the test.

    Types of Tests

    • Individually Administered Intelligence Tests:
