The Use of Person-fit Statistics in Evaluating the Accuracy of Placement Tests
2010
Overview
This study applied person-fit statistics as estimated by the standardized log-likelihood (lz) index to analyze two placement tests used in the United Arab Emirates University. The first test was an English placement test consisting of 119 multiple-choices items and administered to 1558 students. The second was an Arabic placement test of 90 multiple-choice items administered to 1077 students. Results supported the use of person-fit statistics to effectively evaluate the accuracy of placement tests, and showed that ability level and person-fit statistics are not related. As for the aberrant responses resulting from misfitting persons, two unusual common responses have been observed: missing most of the items at the end of the test and missing more easy items than expected at the beginning of the test.
