Incremental Reliability and Validity of Multiple-Choice Tests with an Answer-Until-Correct Procedure
Hanna, Gerald S.
Journal of Educational Measurement, 12, 3, 175-8, F 75
An alternative to the conventional right-wrong scoring method used on multiple-choice tests was presented. In the experiment, the examinee continued to respond to a multiple-choice item until feedback signified a correct answer. Findings showed that experimental scores were more reliable but less valid than inferred conventional scores. (Author/BJG)
