言語的類似性を介したスコアリング信頼性の再概念化

Conventional cross-country scoring reliability in international large-scale assessments often depends on double scoring, which typically involves relatively small samples of multilingual responses. To extend the reach of reliability estimation, this study introduces the Linguistic-integrated Reliability Audit (LiRA), a novel method that measures scoring reliability using an entire dataset in a large-scale, multilingual context. LiRA automatically generates a second score for each response by analyzing its semantic alignment within a neighborhood of similar responses, then applies a weighted majority voting to determine a consensus score. Results demonstrate that LiRA provides a more comprehensive and systematic estimation of scoring reliability at the item, country, and language levels, while preserving the fundamental concepts of traditional reliability.
