Abstract

In this research, the effects of binary scoring (1,0) and weighted scoring (1,2,3,4) methods to the reliability and validity of the test have been analysed regarding classical test theory and latent trait theory. The data were collected through the administration of a multiple choice test to 1608 students of 4., 5., 6. and 7. grades of various primary schools in 2001-2002. Regarding the results of the study, it has been concluded that the use of latent trait theory and binary scoring for the test development studies can be more suitable. It is also be recommended that the use of weighted scoring is suitable for the test development studies made through classical test theory.

Özet

Bu araştırmada, çoktan seçmeli test maddelerini iki kategorili (1,0) ve ağırlıklı (1,2,3,4) puanlama yöntemlerinin testin güvenirlik ve geçerliğine etkisi, klasik test teorisi ve örtük özellikler teorisine göre incelenmiştir. Araştırma verileri, 2001-2002 öğretim yılında çeşitli ilköğretim okullarının 4., 5., 6. ve 7. sınıflarında okuyan 1608 öğrenciye uygulanan çoktan seçmeli bir testle elde edilmiştir. Araştırma bulgularına göre, test geliştirme çalışmalarında örtük özellikler teorisinin ve (l ,0) puanlamadan yararlanılmasının daha uygun olacağı düşünülmektedir. Klasik test teorisiyle yapılacak çalışmalarda ise ağırlıklı puanlamadan yararlanılması önerilebilir.
