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.
q2 i? The article outlines a general process for measuring item-level effort applicable to an expanded set of item types and test-taking behaviors, including omitted or constructed responses. → Steven Wise 2017

The abstract describes the study's central contribution: a "general process for measuring item-level effort" covering "an expanded set of item types and test-taking behaviors (such as omitted or constructed responses)." Only the abstract's description is available here; no detailed results are printed.
"The current study outlines a general process for measuring item-level effort that can be applied to an expanded set of item types and test-taking behaviors (such as omitted or constructed responses)."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- RTE provides an assessment of test-taking effort down to the level of individual item responses — related
- RTE is limited to selected-response items that must be answered before advancing — related
- Test takers generally disengage during only a portion of their items, and these disengaged responses reflect a momentary cessation of measurement — related
- The general effort-measurement process is illustrated with data from a large-scale assessment program
