Abstract:
Over the past 5 years, a test analysis software program was developed and is being successfully used to modify faculty-constructed nursing tests administered to small classes. The interplay of instruction, students, and test items were variables considered while developing a practical, efficient program to produce test performance printouts designed to be used with little need for statistical interpretation. This test performance profile software is now available as freeware for individual nursing faculty.
