Abstract:
In educational and psychological assessments, benefiting from back random response (BRR) is a major type of rapid guessing in misfitting item score patterns. Person-fit statistics (PFS) based on cumulative sum (CUSUM) and change point analysis (CPA) from statistical process control (SPC) are better than other PFS for detecting aberrant response. In this study, we developed new person-fit statistics based on three algorithms from CPA procedure and CUSUM method for detection of person misfit with dichotomous or polytomous items. By means of simulated data, the effectiveness of the new statistics to detect test-takers with BRR was investigated.
