Abstract:
Recent research on multiple choice questions has identified deficiencies of inadequate content-equivalence and item-writer bias. Systematic methods of writing multiple choice questions are being advocated as effective responses. This article describes preliminary development of a new item-writing method. Details of the procedure, called item modelling, are provided.
