ABSTRACT

This study examined the effect of similar vs. dissimilar proficiency distributions on uniform DIF detection on a statewide eighth grade mathematics assessment. Results from the similar- and dissimilar-ability reference groups with an SWD focal group were compared for four models: logistic regression, hierarchical generalized linear model (HGLM), the Wald-1 IRT-based test, and the Mantel-Haenszel procedure. A DIF-free-then-DIF strategy was used. The rate of DIF detection was examined among all accommodated scores and common accommodation subcategories. No items were detected for DIF using the similar ability distribution reference group, regardless of method. With the dissimilar ability reference group, logistic regression and Mantel–Haenszel flagged 8–17%, and the Wald-1 and HGLM test flagged 23–38% of items for DIF. Forming focal groups by accommodation type did not alter the pattern of DIF detection. Creating a reference group to be similar in ability to the focal group may control the rate of erroneous DIF detection for SWD.  相似文献

Data from a large-scale performance assessment ( N = 105,731) were analyzed with five differential item functioning (DIF) detection methods for polytomous items to examine the congruence among the DIF detection methods. Two different versions of the item response theory (IRT) model-based likelihood ratio test, the logistic regression likelihood ratio test, the Mantel test, and the generalized Mantel–Haenszel test were compared. Results indicated some agreement among the five DIF detection methods. Because statistical power is a function of the sample size, the DIF detection results from extremely large data sets are not practically useful. As alternatives to the DIF detection methods, four IRT model-based indices of standardized impact and four observed-score indices of standardized impact for polytomous items were obtained and compared with the R 2 measures of logistic regression.  相似文献

The assessment of differential item functioning (DIF) in polytomous items addresses between-group differences in measurement properties at the item level, but typically does not inform which score levels may be involved in the DIF effect. The framework of differential step functioning (DSF) addresses this issue by examining between-group differences in the measurement properties at each step underlying the polytomous response variable. The pattern of the DSF effects across the steps of the polytomous response variable can assume several different forms, and the different forms can have different implications for the sensitivity of DIF detection and the final interpretation of the causes of the DIF effect. In this article we propose a taxonomy of DSF forms, establish guidelines for using the form of DSF to help target and guide item content review and item revision, and provide procedural rules for using the frameworks of DSF and DIF in tandem to yield a comprehensive assessment of between-group measurement equivalence in polytomous items.  相似文献

In this article, I address two competing conceptions of differential item functioning (DIF) in polytomously scored items. The first conception, referred to as net DIF, concerns between-group differences in the conditional expected value of the polytomous response variable. The second conception, referred to as global DIF, concerns the conditional dependence of group membership and the polytomous response variable. The distinction between net and global DIF is important because different DIF evaluation methods are appropriate for net and global DIF; no currently available method is universally the best for detecting both net and global DIF. Net and global DIF definitions are presented under two different, yet compatible, modeling frameworks: a traditional item response theory (IRT) framework, and a differential step functioning (DSF) framework. The theoretical relationship between the IRT and DSF frameworks is presented. Available methods for evaluating net and global DIF are described, and an applied example of net and global DIF is presented.  相似文献

One approach to measuring unsigned differential test functioning is to estimate the variance of the differential item functioning (DIF) effect across the items of the test. This article proposes two estimators of the DIF effect variance for tests containing dichotomous and polytomous items. The proposed estimators are direct extensions of the noniterative estimators developed by Camilli and Penfield (1997) for tests composed of dichotomous items. A small simulation study is reported in which the statistical properties of the generalized variance estimators are assessed, and guidelines are proposed for interpreting values of DIF effect variance estimators.  相似文献

In this article, linear item response theory (IRT) observed‐score equating is compared under a generalized kernel equating framework with Levine observed‐score equating for nonequivalent groups with anchor test design. Interestingly, these two equating methods are closely related despite being based on different methodologies. Specifically, when using data from IRT models, linear IRT observed‐score equating is virtually identical to Levine observed‐score equating. This leads to the conclusion that poststratification equating based on true anchor scores can be viewed as the curvilinear Levine observed‐score equating.  相似文献

Detection of differential item functioning (DIF) is most often done between two groups of examinees under item response theory. It is sometimes important, however, to determine whether DIF is present in more than two groups. In this article we present a method for detection of DIF in multiple groups. The method is closely related to Lard's chi-square for comparing vectors of item parameters estimated in two groups. An example using real data is provided.  相似文献

To assess item dimensionality, the following two approaches are described and compared: hierarchical generalized linear model (HGLM) and multidimensional item response theory (MIRT) model. Two generating models are used to simulate dichotomous responses to a 17-item test: the unidimensional and compensatory two-dimensional (C2D) models. For C2D data, seven items are modeled to load on the first and second factors, θ1 and θ2, with the remaining 10 items modeled unidimensionally emulating a mathematics test with seven items requiring an additional reading ability dimension. For both types of generated data, the multidimensionality of item responses is investigated using HGLM and MIRT. Comparison of HGLM and MIRT's results are possible through a transformation of items' difficulty estimates into probabilities of a correct response for a hypothetical examinee at the mean on θ and θ2. HGLM and MIRT performed similarly. The benefits of HGLM for item dimensionality analyses are discussed.  相似文献

Detection of differential item functioning (DIF) on items intentionally constructed to favor one group over another was investigated on item parameter estimates obtained from two item response theory-based computer programs, LOGIST and BILOG. Signed- and unsigned-area measures based on joint maximum likelihood estimation, marginal maximum likelihood estimation, and two marginal maximum a posteriori estimation procedures were compared with each other to determine whether detection of DIF could be improved using prior distributions. Results indicated that item parameter estimates obtained using either prior condition were less deviant than when priors were not used. Differences in detection of DIF appeared to be related to item parameter estimation condition and to some extent to sample size.  相似文献

Many statistics used in the assessment of differential item functioning (DIF) in polytomous items yield a single item-level index of measurement invariance that collapses information across all response options of the polytomous item. Utilizing a single item-level index of DIF can, however, be misleading if the magnitude or direction of the DIF changes across the steps underlying the polytomous response process. A more comprehensive approach to examining measurement invariance in polytomous item formats is to examine invariance at the level of each step of the polytomous item, a framework described in this article as differential step functioning (DSF). This article proposes a nonparametric DSF estimator that is based on the Mantel-Haenszel common odds ratio estimator ( Mantel & Haenszel, 1959 ), which is frequently implemented in the detection of DIF in dichotomous items. A simulation study demonstrated that when the level of DSF varied in magnitude or sign across the steps underlying the polytomous response options, the DSF-based approach typically provided a more powerful and accurate test of measurement invariance than did corresponding item-level DIF estimators.  相似文献
