Milli Eğitim Bakanlığı Özel Okullar Sınavı Verilerinin Madde Tepki Kuramı Modellerine Uyumu

Bu çalışmada Milli Eğitim Bakanlığı Özel Okullar Sınavında kullanılan matematik ve fen bilgisi alt testlerinin Madde Tepki Kuramı modellerine uyumu incelenmiştir. İncelemede 4728 kişilik bir örneklem kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın bulguları, testlerdeki verilerin tek boyutluluk, yerel bağımsızlık, düşük şans başarısı sayıltılarını karşıladığını göstermektedir. Ayrıca, yetenek parametrelerinin ve madde güçlük indislerinin değişmezliği de sağlanmaktadır. Ancak Kay-kare uyum istatistikleri kullanılan modellere göre farklılıklar göstermektedir. Sonuç olarak Madde Tepki Kuramı modellerinin Özel Okullar Sınavını değerlendirmede kullanılabilir olduğu gözlenmiştir.

The Fit of Ministry of National Education Private School Examination Data to Item Response Theory Models

In the present study, the model-data fit of Item Response Theory models to the data obtained in the Ministry of National Education, Private School Examination Mathematics and Natural Sciences subtests were studied. Total 4728 subjects were used in the analyses. The results indicated that the unidimensionality, local independence, zero chance level assumptions were met in the data set. Also, invariance of ability parameters and item difficulty indices were achieved in the data set. On the other hand, Chi-sqare fit statistics gave different results across the models. The results indicated that models of Item Response Theory were feasible in evaluating the data obtained in the Private School Examinations.
