Abstract

In this study, one-dimensional item response theory models were evaluated using different scaling methods. In this context, the equating errors and the area under the curve of four scaling methods (Stocking-Lord, Heabara, Mean-Sigma, Mean-Mean), and one, two, and three parameters logistic models (1PL, 2PL, and 3PL) in non-equivalent groups with anchor test (NEAT) design were examined. Additionally, the equating errors of the scaling methods and the results obtained from ROC analysis were compared. Qatar's and Australia's PISA 2012 mathematical literacy test data were used in the study. The minimum error was obtained from the Mean-Mean method with the 1PL model, and the maximum error was obtained from the Mean-Mean method with the 3PL model. Similar results were observed in all comparisons and supported each other. It is concluded that ROC analysis can be used to compare different conditions, methods and models.
