A Brief Report on a Comparison of Six Scoring Methods for Multiple True-False Items.
Tsai, Fu-Ju; Suen, Hoi K.
Educational and Psychological Measurement, v53 n2 p399-404 Sum 1993
Six methods of scoring multiple true-false items were compared in terms of reliabilities, difficulties, and discrimination. Results suggest that, for norm-referenced score interpretations, there is insufficient evidence to support any one of the methods as superior. For criterion-referenced score interpretations, effects of scoring method must be considered. (SLD)
