Score differencing is one of the six categories of statistical methods used to detect test fraud (Wollack & Schoenig, 2018) and involves the testing of the null hypothesis that the performance of an examinee is similar over two item sets versus the alternative hypothesis that the performance is better on one of the item sets. We suggest, to…

According to Wollack and Schoenig (2018), score differencing is one of six types of statistical methods used to detect test fraud. In this paper, we suggested the use of Bayes factors (e.g., Kass & Raftery, 1995) for score differencing. A simulation study shows that the suggested approach performs slightly better than an existing frequentist…
