Abstract

BORGATTO, Adriano Ferreti  and  ANDRADE, Dalton Francisco de. Análise clássica de testes com diferentes graus de dificuldade. Est. Aval. Educ. [online]. 2012, vol.23, n.52, pp.146-156. ISSN 0103-6831.

The aim of this paper is to compare the performance of items using the measures normit and score in the Saeb 2005 tests administered to twelfth grade High School students. Besides the Saeb data, we also used a simulated dataset related to two tests with different degrees of difficulty. It was shown, mainly in the simulation study, that the results obtained with the score could lead to wrong conclusions about the quality of the item.

Keywords : Item Response Theory; Normit; Data Analysis.
