Study Notes
Test Development
-
Tests are not created equally; good test creation is a thoughtful process of application of established principles.
-
Test development is a broad term encompassing all stages of test creation.
-
Test development follows five distinct stages:
- Conceptualization (forming an idea for the test)
- Construction (writing or revising items, formatting, and setting rules)
- Tryout (Administering the test to a sample, comparing whole test and item performance, and collecting data)
- Item analysis (analyzing the data from the tryout, determining if items are good, need revision, or should be discarded; assessments of item reliability, validity, and discrimination)
- Revision (modifying the content or format to improve measurement effectiveness based on the item analysis and the tryout)
-
The process may involve several revisions and tryouts based on further analysis of test item and sample responses.
