This article presents two criterion-referenced grading models developed in Germany, and shows how they can be applied in the classroom setting. The models are a binomial grading model ( Lindner, 1980 ) and an arcsine grading model ( Klauer, 1982 ). In both cases, one can assign grades on the basis of a criterion-referenced test with a systematic control of the possible errors of misclassification.

Diagnostic Decision Making

A criterion-referenced test keyed to an individualized, self-paced instruction program was developed as part of a diagnostic testing/shipboard training system. The job-based test described hypothetical situations that were based on known job requirements. Under each such situation, questions were asked that required the demonstration of skills and knowledges that supported the job and were covered in the various modules of the instruction program. High face and content validity were ensured by using cards, charts, diagrams, and illustrations in presenting each job situation; and by having job experts write test items. Items were selected that best discriminated between graduates and nongraduates of a shorebased program using the same instruction. The cutoff score for the set of items pertaining to each module was determined from the performance of graduates of the shorebased program and applied to a cross-validation sample. Test scores from two administrations were used to estimate the reliability of the diagnostic decision making.

Criterion Referenced

Since Cox and Vargas (1966) introduced their pretest-posttest validity index for criterion-referenced test items, a great number of additions and modifications have followed. All are based on the idea of gain scoring; that is, they are computed from the differences between proportions of pretest and posttest item responses. Although the method is simple and generally considered as the prototype of criterion-referenced item analysis, it has many and serious disadvantages. Some of these go back to the fact that it leads to indices based on a dual test administration- and population-dependent item p values. Others have to do with the global information about the discriminating power that these indices provide, the implicit weighting they suppose, and the meaningless maximization of posttest scores they lead to. Analyzing the pretest-posttest method from a latent trait point of view, it is proposed to replace indices like Cox and Vargas’ Dpp by an evaluation of the item information function for the mastery score. An empirical study was conducted to compare the differences in item selection between both methods.
