Bayesian Estimation and Testing of a Linear Logistic Test Model for Learning during the Test
Lozano, José H.; Revuelta, Javier
Applied Measurement in Education, v34 n3 p223-235 2021
The present study proposes a Bayesian approach for estimating and testing the operation-specific learning model, a variant of the linear logistic test model that allows for the measurement of the learning that occurs during a test as a result of the repeated use of the operations involved in the items. The advantages of using a Bayesian framework compared to the traditional frequentist approach are discussed. The application of the model is illustrated with real data from a logical ability test. The results show how the incorporation of previous practice into the linear logistic model improves the fit of the model as well as the prediction of the Rasch item difficulty estimates. The model provides evidence of learning associated with two of the logic operations involved in the items, which supports the hypothesis of practice effects in deductive reasoning tasks.
