Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q1 i? Researchers examined how accurately parameters of the effort-moderated IRT model can be estimated when multiple model assumptions are violated, as part of research on test-taking disengagement. → ncme-presentation

Related Claims¶
- Ability-distribution mismatch with the TESTFACT default does not significantly affect item difficulty estimates but slightly improves discrimination estimates — related
- Current measurement models underlying achievement testing assume students respond effortfully to test items — related
- Effort-moderated scoring estimates disengaged test takers' performance by excluding disengaged responses and scoring the remaining responses — related
- E-M scoring assumes the remaining responses are unaffected by disengagement, and this assumption can fail under partial engagement — related
