Title:
Using Analytical and Psychometric Tools in Medium- and High-Stakes Environments
Synopsis:
Using analytical and psychometric tools to ensure the psychometric quality of assessments is a requirement in medium to high stakes environments. However, matching the psychometric theory to practice is not always an easy task and often requires years of experience developing and analyzing assessments. Questionmark Perception provides the analytic and psychometric tools to evaluate and ensure the performance of assessments and by using the right tools for the right job an organization can obtain the information they need to prove that their assessments are defensible.
This session is designed to match the theoretical with the applied by providing guidance regarding how to ensure that your questions and assessments are performing well psychometrically. A review of the concepts of reliability and validity will be presented with practical examples of how to implement the theory. Examples of questions and assessments will be presented using Perceptions powerful reports such as the Item Analysis Report, Test Analysis Report, Coaching Report, and Score List Report. In addition, Questionmark's new Results Management System (RMS) will be demonstrated to show how it can be used to help ensure the defensibility of your assessment program.
