When different examiners score identical answers differently, scoring is influenced by personal judgment, so objectivity is compromised.

Consistent scores indicate reliability, scoring free from examiner bias indicates objectivity, and low cost and ease of administration indicate usability.

A discrimination index near 1.00 means the item sharply separates higher- from lower-achieving students.
Is this answer helpful and correct?
0 agree0 disagree
A discrimination index of 0.20 is below the commonly accepted range, so the item discriminates inadequately.

A difficulty value of 85% means most students answered correctly, so the item is easy, not very difficult.

Items with difficulty between 30% and 70% are generally considered desirable, neither too easy nor too hard.

A higher difficulty percentage means more students answered correctly, so the 65% item is easier than the 25% item.

54 of 60 is 90% correct; a high difficulty percentage means most students answered correctly, so the item is relatively easy.

Difficulty percentage = (correct responses / total students) × 100 = 18/60 × 100 = 30%.

Measuring an unintended construct consistently is reliable but not valid, which separates the two concepts.

Consistency alone does not guarantee validity: a test can consistently measure the wrong construct, so it is reliable but may lack validity.

Face validity is the surface impression that a test appears to measure what it should.

Content validity concerns whether a test adequately covers the whole content domain; drawing from one chapter undermines it.
Is this answer helpful and correct?
0 agree0 disagree
If an item meant to measure critical thinking only rewards vocabulary recognition, it does not measure the intended construct, so construct validity is lacking.
