A Comparison of Several Methods of Assessing Item Bias.
Ironson, Gail H.; Subkoviak, Michael J.
Journal of Educational Measurement, v16 n4 p209-25 Win 1979
Test data from two diverse culture groups were analyzed to determine the agreement among four methods of detecting item bias (transformed difficulty, discrimination differences, chi-square, and item characteristic curve). The test battery contained 155 items from six subtests: vocabulary, reading comprehension, mathematics, letter groups, picture-number, and mosaic comparisons. (Author/CTM)
