Abstract | This paper reports on a newly designed judgmental method for setting test performance standard that: (1) overcome many of the practical and psychometric problems associated with the Angoff and Ebel methods; (2) can be used to set multiple cut points on a score scale; (3) may be readily and efficiently implemented with assessments that use objective or constructed response items or both; and (4) allows participation in the standard setting process of persons who may not be educators or not necessarily familiar with the instruction of individuals with whom the examination will be used. In addition to describing the new approach, the paper reports on data gathered using the procedure in an actual standard setting process as part of a high stakes assessment program and provides comparative standard setting results in relation to the Angoff procedure. Results of the psychometric study and evaluation demonstrate the new approach to have decided benefits and features meriting its continued study as well as use. One table (sample rating form) is included. (Contains 4 references.) (Author) |
